“We particularly look forward to engaging with cabinet members on the engineering-intensive portfolios and welcome back Deputy Prime Minister the Hon Michael McCormack, Minister for Infrastructure and Transport and Regional Development, the Hon Angus Taylor MP in the revised role of Minister for Energy and Emissions Reduction and the Hon Karen Andrews MP as Minister for Industry, Science and Technology.”
