Mr Vibert – who is Children's Minister – will now also be able to take up these powers and responsibilities, if Deputy Alves and Deputy Ward are unavailable or out of the Island.
Deputy Ward took up the newly-formed role of Education and Lifelong Learning Minister after Chief Minister Lyndon Farnham decided to split the Children's and Education Minister portfolio into two ministries – with Mr Vibert appointed to Children's Minister.
