Anika Wells scrutinized over NYC trip casting taxpayers $100,000
The government’s social media ban for under-16s has been overshadowed by scrutiny over a costly ministerial trip to New York.
The trip totalled over $100,000, with significant spending on airfares, accommodation, and transport.
Despite criticism, the communications minister defends the expense as crucial for representing Australia at the UN event, emphasising transparency and the importance of the ban for child safety online.
