Treasurer Josh Frydenberg has withdrawn from attending the G20 summit in Argentina.

Mr Frydenberg was due to attend the Buenos Aires meeting this month, alongside Prime Minister Scott Morrison.

But he will instead stay in Canberra where the government is dealing with the fallout from losing its majority in parliament.
