Shadow Minister for International Development and the Pacific

The Nationals

Total Interests: 34

Latest alteration: Travel or hospitality - 22/04/24

Source: Statement of Registrable Interests - this contains interests declared as at 11/04/22 and alterations since then.  

This statement contains interests declared as at the dissolution of the previous parliament on 11/04/22 and any alterations since then, including new interests and amendments and deletions to existing interests. The date of an alteration is when it was declared to the register, not when the change occurred.

Open Politics has amended the wording and formatting of some MPs' and Senators' declared interests to improve readability or to correct mistakes. To notify Open Politics of an error or omission, contact us.

Problems: McCormack has failed to declare a junket to India in March 2024 courtesy of the Australia Tibet Council within the required 28 days. The Privileges Committee should investigate him for serious contempt of the House of Representatives.
