A thread on why former Aus PM #ScottMorrison's secret swearing in to multiple ministries.
1 Ministerial responsibility: minister is accountable for ministry & potentially resigns for its mistakes. With 2 ministers, who is responsible? If one is secret, how can he be responsible? 2 Checks & balances: if one man holds many portfolios, how can, eg, the finance minister hold the PM to account if necessary - when they are the same person? Too much power in too few hands.
