Andrea Jenkyns has been appointed minister for skills, further and higher education after ministerial turmoil caused by the collapse of Boris Johnson’s government.
She replaces Michelle Donelan, who had been promoted to the post of education secretary but quit that role within 32 hours as pressure grew on Mr Johnson to resign.
Mr Johnson is still in No 10, staying on only until the Conservative Party chooses a successor in September. He has appointed a new Cabinet after a string of resignations toppled him.
