Albanese pointed to the breast pocket in his jacket and asked Bowen: “Do you keep your phone here? Don’t. It should be away from your heart.”

Bowen replied that he was “more conscious” of putting is phone in his pants pocket.

“Yeah that’s rather important. Arguably more important than my heart,” Bowen said.

They seemed to be discussing perceived dangers of mobile phone radiofrequency on the body.

The ministers chuckled to each other, and appeared to be unaware that their conversation was being recorded.

A spokesperson for the Prime Minister has since said the conversation was simply a joke between meetings.
