| Malcolm Turnbull sworn in as PM alongside new ministry | One of the largest frontbenches in Australian history has been sworn in after Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull and his reshuffled ministry met with Governor-General Sir Peter Cosgrove in Canberra.
Most of the changes were reshuffles rather than promotions, with all 23 Cabinet ministers appointed before the election remaining on the frontbench.
LNP senator Matt Canavan added Resources to his Northern Australia portfolio, taking one of the extra positions picked up by the Nationals, a boost which reflects the larger proportion of their members in the Coalition partyroom post-election.
Kelly O'Dwyer lost responsibility for small business, and her assistant treasurer title has changed to Minister for Revenue and Financial Services.
NSW Nationals MP Michael McCormack was sworn in as Small Business Minister.
Take a look at who has gone where in the reshuffled frontbench. | | | About this email You received this email because you are subscribed to ABC News email alerts.
