Jim Chalmers: 'I completely support' Andrew Giles in a 'difficult job'

Treasurer Jim Chalmers has responded to questions asking if Immigration Minister Andrew Giles’ position was tenable and if his continuation in the role was sucking life out of the Labor government. “I don’t see it that way,” Mr Chalmers said. The Treasurer praised “important changes” to the migration regime made by Mr Giles earlier on Friday morning. “It is a difficult job and I support him completely. “Every government at every level has issues to deal with from time to time.”
