    Here is the full cabinet

    New Cabinet released Wednesday, 12 September 2007

    Speculation as to the makeup of Prime Minister Bruce Golding's Cabinet has come to an end as the list of new Ministers has been released.

    RJR News received the list on Wednesday evening.

    Contrary to popular assumption, Prime Minister Golding did not keep the portfolio of Finance for himself but bestowed it on the outspoken Audley Shaw.

    However Mr. Golding separated the additional portfolios of Planning and Development keeping those two for himself.

    Also against earlier pronouncements that he would trim the Cabinet, Mr. Golding has appointed 18 members, three of which who are without portfolios.

    Portia Simpson Miller had 15 members in her Cabinet.

    The list of Cabinet members proceeds as follows:

    Minister of Finance & the Public Service - Audley Shaw

            Mr. Wehby is considered by his colleagues in the private sector as one of the youngest and most dynamic professionals in the financial field.

            During his tenure as chief operating officer of the Financial Services Division, the division's pre-tax profit increased from $280 million in 2000 to $1.417 billion in 2005, an increase of 406 per cent. He also contributed to making GraceKennedy Limited, one of the region's largest food conglomerates, the first Jamaican cross-listed company.

            Two-year leave of absence
            Mr. Wehby was granted a two-year leave of absence to serve in the new Cabinet by Douglas Orane, Chairman & CEO, GraceKennedy Limited.

            "GraceKennedy has had a long tradition of encouraging its executives to give public service, and Don's decision to proceed is in keeping with this tradition," said Mr. Orane. "It reflects our deeply held belief that one of the best ways to demonstrate our Grace We Care philosophy is through actions such as these to develop the country we love so dearly."

            He added: "We wish Don every success in this new endeavour to which he has unselfishly committed himself in the interest of our country, Jamaica, Land We Love."

            FACT FILE
            1995-97 - He joined GraceKennedy Limited in 1995 as Group Finance Manager. He was appointed DeputyFinance Director in 1997 and to the Board of GraceKennedy in 1997.
