Ministerial diary Discloses diary

The Commonwealth has no mandatory ministerial-diary scheme (unlike NSW, Victoria, Queensland and the ACT, which compel state ministers to publish who they meet). This federal politician has voluntarily published a diary, so the meetings below are disclosed by choice rather than compelled.
