Peter Dutton appoints Jacinta Nampijinpa Price to Musk-style government efficiency role in new frontbench Long-awaited shadow cabinet reshuffle has David Coleman taking over foreign affairs portfolio from outgoing Simon Birmingham.
The current shadow minister for Indigenous Australians, Senator Jacinta Nampijinpa Price, took on the platform, which mirrored the new US Department of Government Efficiency (Doge), led by Elon Musk.
Opposition leader Peter Dutton has announced a long-awaited shadow ministerial shakeup ahead of this year’s federal election, appointing former immigration minister David Coleman to the foreign affairs role.
The reshuffle also included the establishment of a new platform, “government efficiency”, touted to crack down on “wasteful spending” including the “divisive Voice referendum”.
