The UK has another new Culture Secretary. Lucy Frazer, the Minister for Levelling Up, will replace Michelle Donelan, who has spent less than six months in the job.
Frazer is the 11th Culture Secretary since 2010. UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has also slimmed down the duties of the Department for Culture, Media, and Sport (DCMS) of the United Kingdom.
He has removed the department’s responsibility for technology and created the Department for Science, Innovation, and Technology.
10 Downing Street said the DCMS will focus on the “importance of culture, media and sport to [the] economy and build on [the] UK’s position as a global leader in the creative arts.” Donelan had a short but influential tenure and will be remembered for junking plans to sell Channel 4, the UK commercial broadcaster owned by the government.
