What Does A Minister Do? With Senator Linda Reynolds

What is the role of a minister? A minister has a lot of responsibilities, both as an elected representative but also as part of the executive government their role involves managing government departments, formulating government policy, working alongside and taking on board the advice of the public sector, and introducing government legislation. I sat down with Linda Reynolds, Liberal Senator for Western Australia, and former Minister for Home Affairs (2018-2019), Minister for Defence (2019-2021), Minister for the NDIS (2021-2022) amongst other portfolios, to ask her about the role of the executive government and her experience in the cabinet.
