View answerSince my appointment as Minister for Defence in June 2020, I have appointed two special advisers. These advisers are appointed to me in my capacity as Minister for Defence and also as Minister for Foreign Affairs. They are employees of the Department of Foreign Affairs and as such, expenses are administered by that Department.
