Prime Minister for Women[edit]

Michaelia Cash is NOT the minister.

Tony Abbott has made a point of nominating himself as The Prime Minister for Women. He refused to reign in the face of 'wink gate'. It is a political act in the face of Julia Gillard's misogyny tirade. Why is he not listed here as such?

Here is a link to Cash's official title: https://www.aph.gov.au/~/media/03%20Senators%20and%20Members/32%20Members/Lists/minlist.ashx Here is the news article (which is also linked on the page) which declares Abbott as the Minister for Women: http://www.theguardian.com/world/2013/sep/18/tony-abbott-womens-minister-portfolio Roy Scherer (talk) 07:11, 24 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This article is so rubbish it even contradicts the references it gives. Tony Abbott is Australia's Minister for Women as per the references given. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.6.236.68 (talk) 10:09, 16 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Update: i have edited this page to include Tony Abbott in the list as Minister for Women for the period 18 September 2013 – 15 September 2015, which brings it into line with the Tony Abbott page, and reflects reality. alexander110 01:23, 25 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

https://www.pmc.gov.au/sites/default/files/publications/annual_report_13_14_0.pdf#page11 The PM portfolio of 2014 included the Office for Women. Abbott was the minister, and Cash the assisting minister. 159.196.133.224 (talk) 22:26, 17 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Definition of Women?[edit]

Should there be a section describing the working definition of "women" that covers the scope of this ministry? 220.240.251.16 (talk) 11:41, 9 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
