Labor leader eventually handed briefing notes from an advisor after struggling to list party’s six-point plan
“Our policy on the NDIS is to defend and fix the NDIS, lifting the NDIA staffing cap, doubling existing funding for advocacy, fixing regional access and stopping waste… it’s to put people at the centre of the NDIS,” Albanese said.
The Liberal party’s official Facebook page posted about the awkward exchange five times in the three hours after the press conference, with one post claiming Albanese “can’t answer simple questions about his own policy”. “I am following carefully the advice I get from our security intelligence agencies in how we are responsibly managing the issues in relation to this matter,” Morrison said when asked why he hadn’t directly spoken to Sogavare in recent times., saying only “I have had contact with him in the last few months”, despite repeated requests for more detail from journalists.
He did not respond to follow-up questions on whether he had “given up” on seats like Wentworth and North Sydney.Albanese has been criticised by some media travelling on his campaign for continually switching the “rules” by which he runs his press conferences.
