Ambrose George arrives at Monday's swearing-in ceremony\/Sean Douglas photo<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Minister for Information, Telecommunication and Constituency Empowerment Ambrose George says he is ready to take on his new job.<\/p>\n

\u201cI speak of information where we are referring to the Government Information Service as well as the nation station. I will also be responsible with sharing what comes in and goes out of government. I will also be responsible for the telecommunications sector where I will interface with them. I will meet with them to find out what plans they have for telecommunications in Dominica,\u201d George told reporters following a swearing-in ceremony for ministers and parliamentary secretaries at the Windsor Park Stadium on Monday.<\/p>\n

George, who had been forced out of the DLP administration on two previous occasions, said he is also excited that he was given responsibility for constituency empowerment.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am sure you have heard the PM make special reference to the people and ensuring whatever needs to be done in the constituency at a people\u2019s level is done. It is important to know that the people always comes first, that you keep in touch with them and you bring them in focus in terms of the government\u2019s plans. I see this ministry as an important one and I am prepared and ready to go,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

George said the aspect of the establishment of constituency offices for the parliamentarians will also come on stream soon.<\/p>\n

George lost his cabinet position in a 2008 reshuffle by the Skerrit-led administration. In 2002 he was also made to resign from the Pierre Charles-led government.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Minister for Information, Telecommunication and Constituency Empowerment Ambrose George says he is ready to take on his new job. \u201cI speak of information where we are referring to the Government Information Service as well as the nation station.
