I table for the information of the Senate a revised ministry list. The list has been updated to reflect the appointment of the Hon. Mark Butler MP as Minister Assisting the Prime Minister on Mental Health Reform. I seek leave to have the document incorporated into Hansard.

Leave granted.

The document read as follows—

SECOND GILLARD MINISTRY

12 September 2011

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 is a Department of Veterans’ Affairs in the Defence portfolio and a Department of Regional Australia, Regional Development and Local Government in the Prime Minister’s portfolio. The title of a department does not necessarily reflect the title of a minister in all cases.
