Anthony Albanese sets out domestic agenda for first sitting of new parliament | jamesmassola
Ambitious climate change targets, ten days domestic and family violence leave and the creation of Jobs and Skills Australia will be the Albanese government’s first three pieces of business when the new parliament sits in the last week of July.
The prime minister has travelled overseas twice in the first month since being elected. First he went to Tokyo for the Quadrilateral dialogue with Japan, the United States and India and then separately to Jakarta, where he heavily emphasised the economic and strategic opportunities for closer co-operation.
