Talk:Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Work and Pensions (Lords)

Proposed merge of Minister for Work and Pensions (United Kingdom) with Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Work and Pensions (Lords)
Are these the same ministerial post? JW 1961  Talk  20:45, 10 January 2021 (UTC)

Support Yes, ministerial positions are not specifically 'Lords' or 'Commons' assigned but the PM, through the Royal Prerogative power of patronage can appoint any member of either house to a ministerial position. The only time a distinction should be made is for Government Spokesperson for x Department in the House of Lords which isn't the case here. PoliceSheep99 (talk) 13:39, 16 June 2021 (UTC)
