Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask His Majesty's Government whether they intend to announce the names of any direct ministerial appointees who leave government following the change of prime minister; and whether the Direct Ministerial Appointments portal will be updated.

The responsibility for the publication of information on Direct Ministerial Appointments on the announcement portal rests with individual sponsor departments. The primary function of the portal is to bring together, into a central resource, announcements of new Direct Ministerial Appointments from across government. While the portal records the expected length of term of individual appointments, it does not record actual end dates for those appointments that come to an end. Questions about the status of individual appointments would be for sponsor departments.
