Politicians' Family Travel Costs: A Million Dollars in One Year
Update: 2025-12-10
Description
Federal politicians have racked up over $1.1 million in family travel expenses, with Trade and Tourism Minister Don Farrell topping the list at over $45,000. Critics argue these expenses dont pass the pub test given current cost-of-living pressures. Most high-spending members are from South Australia, Western Australia, and rural Queensland. Minister Anika Wells has referred herself for an audit after spending over $100,000 on a New York trip.
