Australia has named Andrew Charlton as Assistant Minister for Science, Technology, and the Digital Economy, concurrently serving as Cabinet Secretary. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese emphasized Charlton’s economic expertise and international experience as pivotal for advancing the government’s agenda on digital asset regulation and tech modernization.
The appointment coincides with Australia’s preparation of sweeping crypto reforms, with draft legislation anticipated later this year. Charlton’s portfolio will prioritize artificial intelligence, technology innovation, and the digital economy—key pillars in the nation’s financial infrastructure overhaul.
