Australian incumbent Prime Minister Scott Morrison and Opposition Leader Anthony Albanese debate on live television ahead of the 2022 federal election, in Sydney, Australia May 8, 2022. - REUTERSPIX: Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese on Sunday said his government could consider an inquiry into former Prime Minister Scott Morrison being secretly sworn into key ministries during the coronavirus pandemic.
The action has drawn criticism from the Labor government and Morrison’s own party, but the former prime minister has defended the moves on the basis that he felt responsibility for the nation in the pandemic was his alone. Albanese indicated the government would also consider an inquiry and reforms to ensure the actions could not be repeated.
He said while the Solicitor General would advise on legal issues, there also were broader issues that needed to be probed.
