Cabinet Changes

Mayor & New Cabinet Dec 2017 s - CB Bristol Design 2017

Last Friday I announced the appointment of two new members to my Cabinet and today they joined me at my Cabinet meeting.

Anna Keen, councillor for Hillfields ward, will take up the role of Cabinet Member for Education and Skills and

Kye Dudd, councillor for Central ward, will take on the role of Cabinet Member for Energy, Waste and Regulatory Services.

I am extremely pleased to be welcoming Anna and Kye to the Cabinet. We are working hard to provide essential services and deliver on our aspirations for the city. In Anna and Kye we have two committed, talented and energetic people who will lead, collaborate with partners and engage with citizens

Their experience and knowledge of Bristol and the people they need to work with will be invaluable assets. They will also be coming from a position of strength in taking over from former Cabinet Members Councillor Claire Hiscott and Councillor Fi Hance, to whom I am very grateful. I’m looking forward to working closely with Anna and Kye on their respective portfolios.

As Cabinet Member for Education and Skills, Councillor Keen will take a lead on working with partners and officers to continue supporting schools in Bristol to forward the recent trend of academic attainment, develop the city’s skills base though collaborating with private and public organisations to deliver training programmes and be a link to the West of England Combined Authority in delivering adult skills projects. Councillor Keen will also continue to lead on the Feeding Bristol project.

Councillor Dudd will take up his position as Cabinet member for Energy, Waste and Regulatory Services. This portfolio includes taking a lead in meeting the Mayor’s goal of Bristol becoming a carbon free city by 2050 and a variety of projects including the city’s Clean Streets Campaign, air quality projects, flood risk management, public protection and continue to lead on sport development.
