Answer
As stated at the top of every proactive diary release that has been published by my office the release shows meetings held relating to ministerial business. It does not include meetings that relate to the Minister’s personal, party political, or parliamentary/constituency roles (such as time spent in the House of Representatives or at one of its select committees, as these are already matters of public record). Therefore as all meeting I hold have an element of advocacy to them I therefore have released all meetings that could be classified as such.
