Prime Minister Anthony Albanese appears to be starting to move towards some tightening of parliamentarians’ travel entitlements.
After more than a week of controversy, Albanese on Friday said he had asked the Independent Parliamentary Expenses Authority for advice.
“I’ve said to IPEA, please give us some advice. And we’ll take that on board and when that advice is received, we’ll make a decision in the usual way,” he told a news conference on Friday.
