Tasmanian Senator Carol Brown steps down from her role as Assistant Minister for Infrastructure and Transport for health reasons, ahead of a planned cabinet reshuffle by Prime Minister Anthony Albanese. This move leaves three vacant positions in Albanese's ministry, following the announced retirements of Ministers Brendan O'Connor and Linda Burney. Reports suggest NT Senator Malarndirri McCarthy will take on Burney's portfolio of Indigenous Australians, and NSW Senator Jenny McAllister will join the cabinet, with the reshuffle expected to be confirmed soon.
