Deputy Minister to the Premier Cam Swan today announced changes to senior leadership of the Saskatchewan Public Service. Effective March 1, 2020, Sarah Harrison has been appointed Deputy Minister of Environment.

“I would like to congratulate Sarah on her new assignment and welcome her back to Saskatchewan,” Swan said. “With extensive executive experience in a number of provincial governments and proven communications and stakeholder engagement skills, this appointment will ensure strong leadership for the Ministry of Environment.
