I inform the House that the Treasurer will absent for question time today as he is preparing for the budget. I will answer questions on his behalf.

I present a revised ministry list reflecting changes to the ministry and the change of representative arrangements.

The document read as follows—

Each box represents a portfolio. Cabinet Ministers are shown in bold type. As a general rule, there is one department in each portfolio. However, there can be two departments in one portfolio. The title of a department does not necessarily reflect the title of a Minister in all cases. Ministers are sworn to administer the portfolio in which they are listed under the 'Minister' column and may also be sworn to administer other portfolios in which they are not listed. Assistant Ministers in italics are designated as Parliamentary Secretaries under the Ministers of State Act 1952.
