Show Notes
South Australias re-elected Labor government, led by Premier Peter Malinauskas, has announced a new cabinet lineup following their election victory. The most significant change sees former health minister Chris Picton moved to a powerful new economic super portfolio, covering state development, artificial intelligence, defense, space industries, and veterans affairs. Pictons new role aims to focus on jobs, housing, and investment, particularly in regional areas with booming sectors like copper, steel, and critical minerals. The reshuffle also includes several other key roles with new leaders, such as Lucy Hood in education, Alice Rolls in child protection, and Emily Bourke in climate and environment. Pictons expanded role comes after a campaign scandal last month, but the premier has praised his value in driving economic growth. The new cabinet looks refreshed and ready to deliver on promises from jobs to essential services.
