Former Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison has spoken for the first time after it was revealed that he was secretly sworn into five minister roles, including health, finance, treasury, home affairs and industry.

The former prime minister said his decision was a precaution during the middle of the pandemic and that he would have made it public if he needed to use the powers granted.
