The tech sectorâs engagement with the federal government may nosedive thanks to former Attorney-General Christian Porterâs appointment to the portfolio, with industry leaders saying they believe he would be unwelcome by some at events, and organisations would have to âbargainâ with themselves about accepting government funding.
Mr Porter was moved to the Industry, Science and Technology portfolio as part of a cabinet reshuffle, which also had Linda Reynolds shifted from her role as defence minister to government services and the NDIS last week. Peter Dutton has picked up the Defence Ministry and Karen Andrews has moved from the technology portfolio to home affairs.
