Released on August 1, 2013
Also continues work on Aboriginal Education and Employment
Today, Premier Brad Wall appointed Saskatoon Greystone MLA Rob Norris to be the Legislative Secretary for International Trade and Education. In this new role, Norris will report to Economy Minister Bill Boyd.
As Legislative Secretary for International Trade and Education, Norris will undertake a number of initiatives:
"Today's appointment is another step toward ensuring we fulfill the Saskatchewan Plan for Growth, which identified goals and actions of the Saskatchewan Government to ensure we are capturing the opportunities, and meeting the challenges, of a growing province," Wall stated.
International trade is vital to Saskatchewan's rapidly growing economy. Our province exported a record $32.6 billion worth of products in 2012 and is poised to break that record once again this year. In Saskatchewan's Plan for Growth, Saskatchewan committed to being a global leader in export and trade by 2020.
Norris also continues in his current role as Legislative Secretary for First Nations and Métis Engagement, reporting to the Minister Responsible for First Nations, Métis and Northern Affairs Jim Reiter.
Over the past year, as Legislative Secretary for First Nations and Métis Engagement, Norris has consulted extensively with Aboriginal communities, citizens and stakeholders. He has participated in more than 165 community visits, meetings and initiatives with First Nations and Métis communities, organizations and youth. This high level of consultation and dialogue with First Nations and Métis communities will continue.
"I am looking forward to my new duties, as increasing Saskatchewan's export trade is a key part of our Plan for Growth,” Norris said. “I am also pleased to continue working with First Nations and Métis communities, as we focus on practical ways to improve the educational and employment outcomes of Saskatchewan's Aboriginal people. Developing our skilled workforce is a vital component of our vision for growth.”
There is no additional salary associated with either of the Legislative Secretary duties held by Norris.
