Beijing has approved a major reshuffle of the SAR administration, with Secretary for Security John Lee replacing Matthew Cheung as chief secretary, and Police Commissioner Chris Tang replacing Lee.
According to a Xinhua News Agency report on Friday, the decision was made by the State Council on June 23, upon the recommendation of Chief Executive Carrie Lam.
Lee had been with the police force for over 30 years and is the first police officer to become a top minister.
With Tang taking over as secretary for security, one of his deputies, Raymond Siu, will assume the post of police commissioner, Xinhua said.
The CE met the media on Friday morning to make a formal announcement of the changes.
