All change in shadow financial services role
Jane Hume has been appointed as shadow finance minister while Stuart Robert will take over as shadow minister for financial services.
Hume had been minister for financial services, superannuation and the digital economy in the Morrison Government since May 2019. She also added a role as minister for women’s economic security in March 2021.
While she remained as a Senator for Victoria, she had moved from her financial services role to one as shadow finance minister and shadow public service minister.
Writing on LinkedIn, Hume said: “There is a lot of work to be done, and in uncertain times scrutiny and accountability of government is more important than ever. I look forward to the work ahead.”
Taking over the financial services post was Stuart Robert while Angus Taylor would be Shadow Treasurer.
Robert was formerly minister for employment, workforce, skills, small and family business and had been assistant treasurer from August 2018-May 2019. He was the member for Fadden in Queensland.
