Ludwig steps up to reform challenge
Welcome Senator Joe Ludwig, the newly appointed Special Minister of State and Cabinet Secretary who hopefully will keep things moving on Labor's governance reforms including Freedom of Information and privacy.Senator Ludwig has some familiarity with the issues having been Shadow Attorney General prior to the 2007 election. Hopefully not much slippage on FOI, dare I say 19 months on, with still not a comma changed in a law everyone agrees is not up to the task.
