Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has revealed Scott Morrison secretly held five additional portfolios between March 2020 and May 2021 during his time as prime minister – in some cases without the existing ministers' knowledge. Between March 2020 and May 2021, Morrison took control of the Departments of Health, Finance, Resources, Home Affairs and Treasury. The bombshell revelation has sparked calls for him to resign and leave Australia's federal parliament. Former Australian Home Affairs Minister Karen Andrews told news.com.au she had "no idea" the former prime minister had sworn himself into her portfolio. "I am going to ask him to resign and leave Parliament,'' she said. "I have nothing to say to him. "This is totally unacceptable, For a prime minister to behave in this manner undermines everything that a federal government constitutionally should stand for." Albanese called him a "stealth bulldozer" and said that Morrison and those in his government need to be "held to account". "This has been government by deception," Albanese told reporters in Canberra. "He told us he was a bulldozer and his Coalition colleagues just shrugged their shoulders and carried on. "A misleading of parliament as to who was holding what portfolios." Albanese said the former prime minister had trashed democracy, adding that he couldn't conceive of how Morrison's plans "avoided scrutiny". Albanese said the appointments were made by the Government-General on the advice of Morrison under Section 64 of the Constitution. "That is the advice I have received," he explained. While Albanese was unable to address the "legality" of Morrison's actions, he confirmed that he's sought advice from the Solicitory-General, which will be available next Monday. When asked whether Albanese was critical of the Governor-General's role in Morrison's appointments, the Prime Minister said "it's very clear" that the responsibility was mainly with the Morrison government. 'That was an error': ScoMo responds Earlier, Morrison made a surprise call to a radio station to address the revelations for the first time. Morrison called into Ben Fordham's 2GB radio show this morning and admitted it was an "error" not telling the former finance minister Mathias Cormann that he had secretly appointed himself to the portfolio. Morrison said he had called the former leader of the government in the Senate to apologise. "That was an error and an oversight and I've apologised," he told 2GB radio. Cormann discovered over the weekend that Morrison had appointed himself to the portfolio without addressing the change with him. Morrison used a secret mechanism that allowed him to appoint himself to a portfolio without needing to make a public announcement. Of the five portfolios, only then-health minister Greg Hunt is known to have been made aware that Morrison was becoming a co-minister. Morrison said he thought the fact he had appointed himself to jointly have power in the finance portfolio had been "sorted" between his and Cormann's offices, but admitted he never bothered to tell his colleague. "Things were moving very quickly at the time,'' he said. "None of us are perfect. There was no sense of bad faith in it." But he defended the decision to "safeguard" the portfolios as prudent, given the risk a minister could be taken down by Covid and be unable to administer their portfolio. Before the total number of portfolios taken over by the then-prime minister was confirmed, Morrison said it was "not his recollection" that he had appointed himself to any more than three, but said he was checking. "I'm pursuing that, but not to my recollection. There were a number (of other portfolios) that we considered at the time to safeguard," he said. Albo: 'I'll run a good, orderly government' Albanese also staunchly promised to run an "orderly" government, that stands in "stark contrast" to the former "rabble". "I can confirm that no-one was appointed to different portfolios in secret," he said. "I can confirm that we had proper processes and papers presented before that Cabinet. "I'll continue to run a good, orderly government that stands in stark contrast to the rabble and the chaos and the undermining of parliamentary democracy of our predecessors." Current Leader of the Opposition, Peter Dutton, is slated to address the secret appointments later on Tuesday.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Governor-General David Hurley has confirmed he swore Scott Morrison into multiple ministerial roles – in some cases without the existing minister's knowledge – but has distanced himself from the decision to keep the changes a secret. In March 2020, the former Prime Minister was sworn in as a second Health Minister and second Finance Minister, with the move never made public, even to his colleagues. The Governor-General's office said in a statement to news.com.au it was acting on the advice of Mr Morrison and the decision to publicise the arrangements was a matter for “the government of the day”. This development comes shortly after Prime Minister Anthony Albanese blasted his predecessor's secrecy, and confirmed he was seeking advice on the legality of Mr Morrison's appointments. “This is extraordinary and unprecedented,” he said. “In Australia, we have a Westminster system of government that produces accountability. This is the sort of tin-pot activity that we would ridicule if it was in a non-democratic country.” Mr Albanese said he was seeking a briefing from the Department of Prime Minister and Cabinet. “Let's be very clear – Australians knew during the election campaign that I was running a shadow ministry. What they didn't know was that Scott Morrison was running a shadow government,'' he said. Mr Albanese said it was “extraordinary” that then-Finance Minister Mathias Cormann wasn't even told the former Prime Minister had joined him in his portfolio. “A whole lot of questions arise from this. What did Peter Dutton and other continuing members of the now shadow ministry know about these circumstances?'' he said. “We had the extraordinary revelation that Mathias Cormann, apparently, wasn't aware that Scott Morrison was the Finance Minister as well as himself. “And how is it that the Governor-General could swear-in Scott Morrison into ministerial portfolios without there being a transparency there about that process? This is quite extraordinary. “This is a government of Australia where the people of Australia were kept in the dark as to what the ministerial arrangements were. It's completely unacceptable. “This is very contrary to our Westminster system. It is unbecoming. It was cynical and it was just weird that this has occurred.” In a statement to news.com.au, a spokesperson for Governor-General David Hurley said the head of state was not doing anything out of the ordinary by appointing the minsterships to Mr Morrison. “The Governor-General, following normal process and acting on the advice of the government of the day, appointed former Prime Minister Morrison to administer portfolios other than the Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet. The appointments were made consistently with section 64 of the Constitution,'' the spokesperson said. “It is not uncommon for ministers to be appointed to administer departments other than their portfolio responsibility. These appointments do not require a swearing-in ceremony – the Governor-General signs an administrative instrument on the advice of the Prime Minister. “Questions around appointments of this nature are a matter for the government of the day and the Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet. Similarly, the decision whether to publicise appointments to administer additional portfolios is a matter for the government of the day.” News.com.au revealed on Sunday the former Prime Minister swore himself in as Resources Minister and ultimately used the power to roll his own frontbencher, Keith Pitt, over a plan to drill for gas off the New South Wales coast. Mr Pitt has told colleagues he was kept in the dark and shocked to learn of the prime minister's secret powers during discussions with him and his office in late 2021 over the controversial oil and gas project. In December of 2021, Mr Morrison announced he was taking the first steps towards killing the gas project. Mr Pitt wanted to move ahead with approvals. Mr Morrison did not. It was during this process, when he was presented with a range of options, that the prime minister revealed to Mr Pitt he was secretly sworn in as the minister and could make the decision himself. Mr Pitt was so concerned that he asked for the executive order outlining how two ministers could be sworn into the portfolio, only to discover it did not exist. Coalition sources have told news.com.au Mr Pitt then complained to the deputy prime minister, Michael McCormack, but was told: “He's the prime minister”. Multiple former cabinet ministers have told news.com.au they either didn't understand why it had been done or objected to it. “The problem with Scott is he had this grandiose view of himself,” one former minister said. “And it was kind of weird.” Government sources have confirmed that ministers can be appointed under instrument when ministers are sick for short term administration without the need to tell the Governor-General but it was unusual for the prime minister to be appointed. It's now emerged former finance Minister Mathias Cormann was never informed that Mr Morrison had sworn himself into his portfolio in March 2020. Coalition sources confirmed Mr Cormann only learned of the secret arrangement through an excerpt of new book Plagued, by Simon Benson and Geoff Chambers, published in The Weekend Australian last week. News.com.au has contacted Mr Morrison, Mr Porter and Mr Cormann, who is currently serving overseas as a diplomat, for comment. Plagued recounts how Mr Morrison “hatched a radical and, until now, secret plan” with then-Attorney-General Christian Porter's approval. “Porter advised that it could be done through an administrative instrument and didn't need appointment by the Governor-General, with no constitutional barrier to having two ministers appointed to administer the same portfolio,'' the book says. “I trust you, mate,” Mr Morrison told Health Minister Greg Hunt, “but I'm swearing myself in as Health Minister, too.” The public was never told of the prime minister's secret arrangement, and the reasons for that secrecy have not been explained. Mr Morrison also swore himself in as Finance Minister alongside Mr Cormann because he wanted to ensure there were two people who had their hands on the purse strings. “Such a move was without precedent, let alone being done in secret, but the trio saw it as an elegant solution to the problem they were trying to solve – safeguarding against any one Minister having absolute power,'' Benson recounts in Plagued. “One option was to delegate the powers to cabinet, but Attorney-General Christian Porter's advice was these powers could not be delegated and could reside only with the Health Minister. “A declaration under section 475 gave Hunt as Health Minister exclusive and extraordinary powers. He, and only he, could personally make directives that overrode any other law and were not disallowable by parliament. He had authority to direct any citizen in the country to do something, or not do something, to prevent spread of the disease.” In June, BPH Energy told the stock exchange it had launched a Federal Court challenge to the gas project decision. The Australian newspaper reports today Mr Morrison was appointed by Governor-General David Hurley to take control of the entire Department of Industry, Science, Energy and Resources nearly a year before he scuttled an offshore gas project weeks out from the federal election. Federal Court documents reveal that the former prime minister was appointed to administer the super department on April 15, handing him powers over the Commonwealth-NSW Offshore Petroleum Joint Authority “pursuant to sections 64 and 65 of the Constitution”. - by Samantha Maiden, news.com.auSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Algunos siguen viendo a la OCDE como “el club de los países más ricos del mundo”. Pero hace años que se amplió y se presenta a sí misma como “el club de las mejores prácticas”. La sigla significa Organización para la Cooperación y el Desarrollo Económicos. Nació con 20 socios de América del Norte y Europa. Hoy incluye 38 naciones, cuatro de ellas latinoamericanas: México, Chile, Colombia y Costa Rica. Esta semana tuvo lugar, en París, la reunión ministerial del Consejo de la OCDE, El encuentro tenía en su agenda nada menos que el cambio climático, la salida de la pandemia de covid-19 y, fundamentalmente, el nuevo impuesto global a aplicar a las compañías multinacionales. Además, fue la primera cita de alto nivel de la OCDE con su nuevo secretario general, el australiano Mathias Cormann, quien asumió ese cargo en junio, luego de 15 años de liderazgo del mexicano Ángel Gurría. ¿Qué dejó esta deliberación de París? ¿Qué avances hubo en los asuntos importantes que debía tratar? ¿Y por qué tiene que importarnos a nosotros, desde Uruguay? Hoy En Perspectiva conversamos con Silvia da Rin, ítalo uruguaya, que estuvo al frente de estas deliberaciones, en una mesa que compartía el secretario general Cormann y el secretario de Estado de Estados Unidos, Antony Blinken.

Whereas the previous episode looked at the early weeks of the Biden administration, this week Allan and Darren examine the new trajectory of US-China relations. A theatrical public session grabbed the headlines when senior officials met in Alaska, but the readouts from the closed door meetings were more positive. What should we take away from the public drama? Within a few days of that first meeting, the atmosphere became tenser with the EU joining the US, UK and Canada in sanctioning certain Chinese officials over human rights abuses in Xinjiang. Beijing was furious, and retaliated with sanctions against EU and UK individuals and entities, including academic researchers and think tanks (after recording, Chinese sanctions were also announced on individuals in the US and Canada). Was this a reciprocal response, or were the Chinese escalating? With ratification of an investment agreement between the EU and China before the European Parliament, the sanctions dispute may end up demonstrating how the “adversarial” dimensions of the China’s relationship with the West can spill over and undermine a “collaborative” enterprise, to use Secretary Blinken’s formulation. And given China’s disdain and vitriol towards any criticism of its human rights record, what can the West hope to achieve in this domain? While Australia did not impose its own sanctions, it supported the effort in a joint statement with New Zealand. Allan and Darren mull over Australia’s own dilemma regarding human rights and China, as well as other news on the relationship. Australia’s Ambassador in Beijing, Graham Fletcher, made some very pointed comments to an Australian business audience, describing the trade disruptions as “vindictive”. Meanwhile, Canberra received support from an unexpected source, the Secretary General of NATO, former Norwegian PM Jens Stoltenberg, who said China “had behaved very badly against Australia”. As the podcast draws to a close, Allan and Darren consider the outcomes from the Quad leaders’ meeting, which for Darren are a useful indication of the type of international cooperation that could become the norm in the future. Finally, with former Australian Finance Minister Mathias Cormann winning his campaign to be elected the next Secretary General of the OECD, Allan discusses the behind-the-scenes effort that would have gone into the campaign, and the significance of his success for Australia.

Mr Morrison went to Tokyo and returned empty-handed. But the 24-hour trip was never about Japan, it was all about continuing to avoid scrutiny and land the Prime Minister into a two-week quarantine at the Lodge – just enough to avoid the final Question Time of the year. Very convenient. And, of course, two weeks with the official photographer, ready to snap every pair of board shorts, thongs, exercise bikes and COVID test. It's outright propaganda.Meanwhile, Mathias Cormann is using a taxpayer military jet (and eight government staff) to boost his chances of becoming the Secretary-General of the OECD. But when your chances were zero, any kind of support is not going to make too much difference and we suspect this is a gig Cormann will not get. But which Prime Minister is going to stand in the way of the ambition of someone who collated all the numbers to bring him the primeministership in the first place?How many pizzas are needed to lock down an entire city? No, it's not an Adelaidian joke, it's a serious concern in the City of Churches. But it wasn't the "pizza guy" who caused the lock-down, it was government incompetence. The Brereton Report outlined allegations of war crimes against Australian military personnel in Afghanistan, and we’re sure this is going to create a great amount of angst within the military community – as well as guaranteed to ensure Scott Morrison keeps aways from tanks at the next election campaign.And will the December “killing season” cause any problems for the Labor leader, Anthony Albanese? We think it could be on the cards.

With the budget’s expected eye-watering debt and deficit numbers, the question remains whether the huge spending will be enough to fight the coronavirus slump. Minister for Finance Mathias Cormann and Shadow Minister Katy Gallagher joined the podcast to discuss the budget’s entrails. The government has faced criticism for benchmarking the much vaunted tax cuts against 2017-18, making them appear larger. Cormann said 2017-18 is the appropriate benchmark, and wouldn’t be drawn on giving further detail. “The costing has been done on the basis that we’ve published it.” Gallagher declared the budget expressed Scott Morrison’s choice to leave some people without support. In particular, the decision to leave those on JobSeeker hanging was described by Gallagher as “frankly, just plain mean.”

Michael is joined by Peter Hartcher, Political and international editor for The Sydney Morning Herald, who notes that ‘Australia is about to mark the 20th anniversary of its last major tax overhaul, the last one to actually survive. It was the July 1, 2000, introduction of the tax reform package best remembered by its most controversial feature – the GST.’ ‘Yet only two weeks after Scott Morrison’s speech to the press club, Finance Minister, Mathias Cormann, seemed to be arguing against major change.’ ‘When asked why Treasurer Josh Frydenberg hadn't raised the question of the GST in talks with his state counterparts, Cormann told Kieran Gilbert on Sky News: "We are focused on lower taxes. We are focused on lowering the tax burden in the economy, not increasing it."’ ‘In just 20 words, Cormann had set up a straw man, a distracting fake argument.’

If the Federal Government's proposal for talks between unions and business delivers a second accord on job creation, it will earn the Prime Minister another mention in the history books.

Finance Minister Mathias Cormann told RN Breakfast that the costing was an "initial estimate taken at a different time in a rapidly evolving situation".

The two Centre Alliance senators, Stirling Griff and Rex Patrick will often be pivotal to the fate of government legislation. The smaller non-Green Senate crossbench this term means that if the government can muster Centre Alliance support, it only needs one other crossbencher to pass bills, as was the case with the government’s tax package. In this podcast Michelle Grattan talks with Stirling Griff about the party’s position on a range of issues - including the widespread pressure for an increase in Newstart. Griff says Centre Alliance is willing to use its bargaining muscle to try to get the government to raise the payment. "We’ll exert as much pressure as we possibly can to, at the very least, have a minor increase from where [Newstart] is now." Centre Alliance has struck up a consultative relationship with Tasmanian independent Jacqui Lambie. “Ahead of a sitting week, or a sitting fortnight, we share our thoughts on which way each of us intends to vote and if we can arrive at a common position we will do so.” Meanwhile, Senate leader Mathias Cormann remains apparently well-placed to wrangle the cross-bench. “[Cormann] is held in very high regard by pretty much everyone in the chamber. Certainly, we have a very good relationship with him.” Additional audio:  A List of Ways to Die, Lee Rosevere, from Free Music Archive. Image:  AAP/Sam Mooy

When the government didn't get the numbers to pass legislation for a same-sex marriage plebiscite they put the wheels in motion for their second best plan: a postal survey. Since announcing that the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) would be responsible for carrying out the same-sex marriage postal survey, acting special minister of state Mathias Cormann has had no shortage of questions from journalists and on social media. In the absence of normal protections offered by the Australian Electoral Commission, Cormann says the government is developing legislation to ensure the respective ‘yes' and ‘no' campaigns are respectful. Similarly, issues around accessibility to the postal vote are being worked out by the ABS, with a paperless option being created for certain circumstances. On the High Court challenges tabled for August 24 he says that while no forms will be sent out until September 12 - after the issue is resolved - any money spent preparing the postal survey will have been spent. “We believe the course of action we have chosen is constitutional and legal but this is now a matter for the High Court”.
