Morrison’s secret ministries

 A new book, Plagued, and News Corp publications have revealed this was to the health and finance portfolios in March 2020, and then the industry, science, energy and resources portfolio in April 2021. The latter move cut across the roles of several other ministers.

Were these the only jobs Morrison added to his own?

No. Prime Minister says hisdepartment had told him Morrison was also appointed to administer Treasury (alongside Josh Frydenberg) and the Department of Home Affairs (whose minister was Karen Andrews) in May 2021.

Morrison initially said “there were a number that were considered at the time for safeguard reasons” but he cannot recall acting on those.

But later on Tuesday, in a lengthy post on Facebook, he said he’d added those departments to his suite of responsibilities “as an added administrative precaution, as a ‘belts and braces’ approach”.
