ILL-health has forced long-serving Huntingdonshire District Council cabinet member Terry Rogers, who has had the finance portfolio for the past decade, to stand aside.

Cllr Rogers is replaced with the resources and customer services portfolio by Cllr Jonathan Gray, and Councillor Darren Tysoe joins the cabinet and take over the environment portfolio from Cllr Gray.

Executive HDC leader Cllr Jason Ablewhite said: “I’m sure that we would all like to take this opportunity in thanking Terry Rogers for the impeccable job that he has done for us at such a senior level over such a long period of time. I wish him a very speedy recovery.”
