Nine new ministers have been sworn in to their roles at NSW Government House, as Dominic Perrottet's revamped cabinet team becomes official.

Governor Margaret Beazley swore in the ministers in a ceremony on Tuesday afternoon.

The new faces include Liberals Natasha Maclaren-Jones, Eleni Petinos and Wendy Tuckerman and Nationals MP Steph Cooke.

"I know that every one of these new ministers who will be appointed tomorrow has the experience, but more importantly, the passion and the energy to take NSW to the next level," Mr Perrottet told reporters on Monday.

Other changes include David Elliott handing over the police portfolio to Deputy Premier Paul Toole and taking on transport.

Matt Kean - who was Treasurer as well as Environment and Energy Minister - keeps control of the purse strings and the energy portfolio, but gives the environment portfolio to first-timer James Griffin.

Veteran Health Minister Brad Hazzard will stay in the job as NSW continues to battle the COVID-19 pandemic.

Labor on Monday called it an "L-plate cabinet from an L-plate premier".

But the premier said he'd achieved a blend of energy and experience.

It's the first major reshuffle since Mr Perrottet took on the top job in October.
