Local MP Simon Baynes wins government promotion

* Simon Baynes MP in the House of Commons Chamber.

Clwyd South MP Simon Baynes has been appointed as a Parliamentary Private Secretary (PPS) to the Ministerial team at the UK Government’s Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport.

A (PPS) is selected from backbench MPs to act as an assistant to a minister or team of ministers in the House of Commons. 

The unpaid role is seen as the first rung on the ministerial ladder. 

The Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) helps to protect and promote the UK’s cultural and artistic heritage and help businesses and communities to grow by investing in innovation and highlighting Britain as a fantastic place to visit, as well as giving the UK an advantage on the global stage, striving for economic success.

Mr Baynes said: “I am very honoured and delighted to have been appointed as a Parliamentary Private Secretary to the Ministerial team at the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport. 

"The work of the Department covers many areas of UK Government policy which are extremely important for Clwyd South. 

"And I am looking forward to delivering on the Government’s commitments and continuing to work hard for the people of Clwyd South as their local Member of Parliament.”
