'Centralisation of power': Morrison slammed over reports he swore himself into ministry positions
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has slammed Scott Morrison over reports the former prime minister secretly swore himself into three ministerial positions while in government. 'Let's be clear here - this was a centralisation of power by the former prime minister and the former prime minister should be held accountable for his actions as well as the actions of other members of his government,' Mr Albanese said during a media conference on Monday. 'This was a political decision, or a series of political decisions were made. Mr Albanese is seeking a briefing from his officials in the department of prime minister and cabinet this afternoon in Canberra on the legality of Mr Morrison's moves to swear secretly himself in as Health Minister, Finance Minister, and Resources Minister during his time in office.
