THA Minority Leader Kelvon Morris is calling on Chief Secretary Farley Augustine to reveal who has been appointed to act as temporary Secretary of Culture and Antiquities in the absence of Zorisha Hackett.

At a virtual news conference on September 29, Augustine announced that Hackett – Secretary of Education, Research and Technology – was temporarily assigned the culture and antiquities portfolio in the Division of Tourism, Culture, Antiquities and Transportation as that department's substantive secretary, Tashia Burris, will retain the tourism and transportation portfolios.

The briefing came two weeks after the Office of the Chief Secretary announced in a media release that Hackett had been temporarily assigned Burris’ portfolio.
