Leanne Wood rejigs Plaid Cymru's team
New Plaid Cymru leader Leanne Wood has announced a small reshuffle of the party's leading spokespeople.
Dafydd Elis-Thomas has been moved to rural affairs in place of Llyr Huws Gruffydd who will look after the newly-merged environment, housing and regeneration post.
Alun Fred Jones becomes takes up economy and energy with his business, enterprise and technology post going.
Ex-leader Ieuan Wyn Jones still looks after finance and the constitution.
"Plaid Cymru has a fantastic, talented team of AMs who have shown time and again their commitment to Wales and the people we serve," said Ms Wood.
"Now we will focus firmly on the future - making our communities sustainable, and building an economy that can support a prosperous Wales."
Ms Wood was elected leader earlier this month and called for "real independence" for Wales after beating rivals Elin Jones and Lord Elis-Thomas.
Ms Wood, who is currently learning to speak Welsh, promised to be an "open, forward looking, positive and constructive" leader.
She has inherited the leadership of the third-largest party in the Welsh assembly behind the Labour government and Conservative opposition.
