Clark was also Business Secretary between July 2016 and July 2019 under Theresa May's government.

But he had the whip removed when Johnson was Prime Minister in September 2019 after voting against the government's EU Withdrawal Bill.

He is reported to be planning to stay in post until the autumn while a replacement is appointed.
