It was announced yesterday that Mr Ian Estwick previous Chief Executive Officer of the National Cultural Foundation, effective from today 1st April would be appointed Minister of Culture replacing Mr Steve Blackette.

Prime Minister David Thompson stated that after all the good work that Estwick had done as NCF CEO it was only fitting he should be aptly rewarded for his sterling cultural contributions.
In fact Estwick had been removed from NCF with the objective of promoting him to this position in the first place.
