Prime Minister John Briceño has announced a comprehensive cabinet reshuffle, effective November 17, 2025. The realignment introduces new ministerial assignments intended to improve government efficiency and align with national development goals.
Henry Charles Usher will lead the Ministry of Home Affairs and Enterprise, while Kareem Musa moves to the Ministry of Immigration, Governance and Labour. Francis Fonseca will head an expanded ministry combining foreign affairs, foreign trade, education, culture, science, and technology. Several ministers, including Jose Abelardo Mai and Michel Chebat, retain their primary portfolios. Prime Minister Briceño continues his direct oversight of finance, investment, and economic transformation.
This restructuring represents one of the most significant administrative changes since the Briceño administration began. Ambassador Stuart Leslie remains in his post as Cabinet Secretary and Chief of Staff.
