LONDON (Reuters) – British lawmaker Chris Heaton-Harris was re-appointed as Northern Ireland minister by new Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, a government statement said on Tuesday.
Heaton-Harris last week said that if a government was not formed in Northern Ireland by Friday Oct. 28, he would be “required by law” to call a fresh election.
