British lawmaker Kemi Badenoch was on Tuesday re-appointed as Trade Minister.
She was also given the role of Equalities Minister, a statement by the office of Prime Minister Rishi Sunak said.
Badenoch backed Sunak in the most recent race to replace outgoing leader, Liz Truss.
She was also a contender earlier this year in a Conservative Party leadership contest to replace then Prime Minister Boris Johnson.
