Where do press briefings take place at Parliament House and do they happen every day?

Hi Shaun, thanks for your question. Parliament House has a number of places where press briefings can be held. Within the building, members of parliament often go to the press gallery to speak with the media. The press gallery consists of offices and studios for a range of news organisations. Members of Parliament can also hold press conferences in other meeting rooms or courtyards in Parliament House. 

There is no rule that says the Prime Minister, Leader of the Opposition, ministers or other members of parliament must hold regular press briefings. Members of parliament can choose if and when they speak to the press. The Prime Minister often holds televised press conferences or makes announcements using a broadcasting studio inside the building or in the courtyard near the their office.
