While COAG usually meets twice a year, National Cabinet will meet monthly once the pandemic is over but will continue to meet fortnightly until then.
"You're genuinely talking about the issues you need to and that's how National Cabinet has operated," Mr Morrison said."We're not going to have the myriad of these agendas which are going on all the time, bubbling up and distracting the core focus." Mr Morrison said he expected the Federal Government to nominate a jobs target at some point into the future, "and that can be the clear purpose of why we're meeting together every month".
Just watched The Project and PVO noted that with COAG journalists could submit FOI requests and review deliberations. Now, the National Cabinet discussions are locked away for 20 years... Trust us, I guess.

COAG scrapped, National Cabinet here to stay, PM saysCOAG will be scrapped and replaced with National Cabinet meetings with a specific focus on creating jobs, Prime Minister Scott Morrison has announced. They considered making COAG monthly, but decided that a monthly National Cabinet was a much better option. Slide of hand in plain view It makes sense to only fail at one thing at a time.

'COAG is no more': National cabinet abolishes Council of Australian GovernmentsCOAG will be abolished in place of a new system after the success of the national cabinet, Prime Minister Scott Morrison has announced. There’s a difference? Renamed? Corporate restructuring talk. No change to any citizen. And PM evasive about interstate borders. Only affected “leisure” travel (not true) he claims. No timeline for abolishing them. I am sorry ScottMorrisonMP is looking weak on this key issue. Disappointing media appearance

This is clearly not the case. Looking at the State’s role is important as buck passing and excess Gov’t bureaucracy in small country is warranted.

This couple caught coronavirus on the Ruby Princess but can't wait to cruise againUrsula Steinberner and Leon Sharp were passengers on the Ruby Princess and both of them caught coronavirus. Ms Steinberner spent 10 days in intensive care and thought she was going to die. They cannot wait to cruise again. Ah, the joys of shuffling around a floating hotel, with thousands of others, queuing for the buffet, overeating, overdrinking... for a few hours, on some days, at an actual travel destination... with the rest of the horde from the ship... I love going on cruises. Once this WuFlu is done and dusted my wife and I are planning on another one too. Life is for living. Not my idea of fun but who am I to impose my hobbies on others. Also, buy a rifle. It's fun.
