'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

Federation reform an 'obligation': Perrottet | Sky News AustraliaNSW Treasurer Dominic Perrottet says the state and federal governments have an “obligation” to consider federation reform as it looks to life beyond the coronavirus pandemic. \n\nSpeaking with Sky News, Mr Perrottet said the process has been crucial to the nation’s response to the coronavirus crisis. \n\n“I think it is a great, not just opportunity, but an obligation on premiers, treasurers, to be working together across political lines to make some … tough decisions for reform that will take our state forward,” he said. \n\n“I don’t think this is an opportunity for reform, we have an obligation to reform for future generations,” he said. \n\nNational cabinet will meet on Friday where preliminary discussions about how to reform the crucial relationship between the state and the federal government. \n\nMr Perrorttet said he wanted all options on the table in reform discussions, including income tax sharing - a proposal previously shot down by the states during the Turnbull government. \n\n“Areas like income tax sharing that have been posted in the past as ideas in which we could go down. I think we need to look at a whole range of areas, put everything on the table,” he said. \n\n“States can do some reform on their own, but it is much better to do it in connection with the federal government,” he said. \n\nHe said hopes the reform will target “inefficient taxes”. \n\nImage: Getty Dom_Perrottet Kieran_Gilbert Yep, get rid of State Governments, a waste of time & money !

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.
