Overall, News Ltd reports, 11 women will be in the overall ministry up from nine now.
Victorians Jacinta Collins and Catherine King and Tasmanian Julie Collins will become cabinet ministers.
"These women will be first-class contributors to our cabinet decision making," he told News Ltd.
"They join Penny Wong, the first woman to be leader of the government in the Senate, Jenny Macklin and Tanya Plibersek, who have all demonstrated their strong credentials in the past."
Senator Collins is expected to become the minister for mental health, Ms King will take on the regional Australia portfolio while Ms Collins will hold the portfolio of housing, homeless and status of women.
