Rhun ap Iorwerth has announced his Cabinet team as Plaid Cymru forms a minority Welsh Government.

Mr ap Iorwerth was elected as First Minister on Tuesday, after Plaid became the largest party in the Senedd - but fell six seats short of a majority.

His deputy will be Sioned Williams, who will also serve as minister for social justice and equality, while former Llywydd, Elin Jones, is named finance minister.

Three more North Wales MSs are named in the Cabinet - from Gwynedd Maldwyn, Sian Gwenllian takes responsibility for local government, housing and planning, while Mabon ap Gwynfor is named Health Minister.

Llyr Grufydd, who represents Clwyd, is appointed as Minister for Rural Resilience and Sustainability.

Former Meirionydd Nant Conwy MP Elfyn Llwyd returns to frontline politics as counsel general, although that role will need to be finalised by the Senedd.

Former Plaid Cymru leader Adam Price takes on the brief of enterprise, connectivity and energy, while Anna Brychan oversees education and the Welsh language.

Mr ap Iorwerth said: "This Cabinet will bring new energy, new ideas and a new direction to the way our nation is led."

"United and filled with talent and experience ready to serve, my government will believe in the art of the possible, working as one team every day to improve the lives of the people of Wales."

"Our principles will be our guide as we seek practical solutions to the issues faced by communities the length and breadth of our country – and we will pursue our missions with the energy and urgency they demand."

"Our pledge is simple – to repay people’s trust in us as quickly as we can, bringing the nation together. A new era of leadership starts today."

The rest of the Cabinet line-up is as follows:

• Trefnydd, Chief Whip and Cabinet Minister for Culture and Sport – Heledd Fychan
• Cabinet Minister for Government Effectiveness & the Constitution – Dafydd Trystan Davies
• Deputy Minister for Public and Preventative Health – Nerys Evans
• Deputy Minister for Social Care, Mental Health and Women’s Health – Delyth Jewell
• Deputy Minister for Transport – Mark Hooper
• Deputy Minister for Skills and Tertiary Education – Cefin Campbell
• Counsel General Designate – Elfyn Llwyd

The new Deputy First Minister, Sioned Williams, who represents Brycheiniog Tawe Nedd, said she was "humbled" to have been appointed and takes on the role "with a deep sense of purpose".

She said: "This government for all is committed to turning promise into immediate action for the people of Wales, with a clear focus on tackling the challenges facing every community."

"I am determined to take action on our priorities from day one, particularly rolling out our childcare offer and urgently tackling child poverty so that every child has the security and opportunity they deserve."
