Okay, kiddo! So, the government has different levels of people who help make decisions and run things. One of those levels is called a minister, and they are in charge of a specific area like health or education.
Now, sometimes a minister has a lot of work to do and needs help to get everything done. That’s where a parliamentary under-secretary of state comes in. They work closely with the minister and help them with their job.
Think of it like when you’re playing a game with a friend and you need some extra help to win. The parliamentary under-secretary of state is like your helper, making things easier for the minister to get the job done.
It’s all about teamwork to make sure the government can do its job well and help people like you and me!
