Labor and ABC amateurs foaming at their stooooopid gobs yet again.....look over thereGovernor-General David Hurley has confirmed he appointed Scott Morrison to administer portfolios other than his own, saying it was not an “uncommon” occurrence.
Mr Hurley did not confirm which portfolios he appointed the former prime minister to oversee but defended his role, saying he was following “normal process and acting on the advice of the government of the day”.
“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,” a spokesman for the Governor-General’s official secretary told The Australian.
“The appointments were made consistently with section 64 of the Constitution.
“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.
