"I am absolutely delighted to have been appointed to this exciting role. I look forward to tackling the government on issues such as the unfair council tax, sustainable communities and affordable housing.
"This is a very exciting time for the Liberal Democrats and I am very pleased to be taking on responsibility for Communities and Local Government, an area which I am so passionate about and which is of such importance to Cornwall."
