Parliamentary Secretary

A Parliamentary Secretary is a member of a government, often in a parliamentary democracy, who assists a minister in their duties, such as managing specific tasks or overseeing projects. They usually have a role in the same department as the minister they support and may represent them in discussions, meetings, or on specific issues. While they do not have the same level of authority as the minister, they play a vital role in ensuring the smooth operation of government functions and may be involved in policymaking and community engagement.
