The current minister is Lauren Moss (Labor). She was sworn in on 12 September 2016 following the Labor victory at the 2016 election. The responsibilities of the ministry expanded substantially at that time, as it was renamed "Tourism and Culture" and incorporated the roles of three formerly separate ministries: Arts and Museums, Parks and Wildlife, and Sport and Recreation.[1][2][3]
There are two assistant ministers attached to the portfolio: Tony Sievers (assistant minister for sports and community events) and Kate Worden (assistant minister for bringing back the Arafura Games), as part of the Gunner government's decision to appoint all government backbenchers as assistant ministers.[3]
