Remind me.. where have we seen this EXACT cynical abuse and opaqueness in government BEFORE... 🤔

More “Yes, Minister” speak.

The more things changed the more they stayed the same.

"Labor won’t take up many of the [Briggs] recommendations, instead opting for a major overhaul of a government-wide framework for ensuring appropriate appointments."

"In some portfolios as many as half of the appointments had been made directly by ministers without a formal process" and “all too often these appointments have looked like forms of patronage and nepotism"

TOR prevented looking at current/Labor appointments...

Hmm why they want to keep this quiet?
