Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade
Today I announce the appointments of three career officials to lead Australia's diplomatic missions in Islamabad, Lisbon and Papeete.
I am pleased to confirm the following appointments:
- Mr Tim Kane as Australia's next High Commissioner to Pakistan
- Dr Helen Cheney as Australia's next Ambassador to Portugal
- Ms Greta Whyte as Australia's next Consul-General in French Polynesia
Australia's diplomatic network enables us to promote our interests in peace, security, trade, investment and other areas of cooperation.
Australia takes the world as it is and seeks to shape it for the better - these diplomatic appointments will deepen Australia's connections abroad and increase our ability to influence where it matters.
I thank the outgoing High Commissioner, Ambassador, and Consul-General for their important contributions.
