Laura Trott already took questions in Parliament last week, where she was listed as pensions minister in the House of Commons Hansard.
Speaking at the House of Commons last week, Trott faced a backlog of questions, given the reshuffle at the Department of Work & Pensions, which saw Alex Burghardt depart as pensions minister after less than a month in the role.
Guy Opperman, who previously was the longest serving pensions minister between 2022 and 2017, has now been confirmed as minister for Employment.
Trott, elected MP for Sevenoaks in 2019, became one of two parliamentary under secretaries of State for Work & Pensions at the end of October, alongside Mims Davies.
Pressing issues to be addressed by Trott are the defined benefit (DB) funding code consultation and the impact of the liability-driven investing (LDI) crisis on DB schemes.
