Quick Glance: Look for documents granting Morrison covert ministerial authority.
- Former Prime Minister Scott Morrison took over the ministries of then-health minister Greg Hunt (right), then-finance minister Mathias Cormann (bottom-left), and then-resources minister Keith Pitt without informing the Australian public of his decision.
- Later that year, Pitt heard that the then-prime minister had also taken on the resources portfolio.
