Ministerial diary Not yet checked

The Commonwealth has no mandatory ministerial-diary scheme (unlike NSW, Victoria, Queensland and the ACT, which compel state ministers to publish who they meet).

We have not yet confirmed whether this politician voluntarily publishes a diary. We are checking federal members over time; this status updates as coverage grows.
