          <by role="member" id="1807">Dr McFETRIDGE: </by> Has the Russell Investment Group—an investment consultant for WorkCover—shut down transaction and management operations for WorkCover investment funds? If so, what is the financial consequence? Russell Investment Group is an investment consultant contracted to undertake day-to-day investment decisions for WorkCover. On Saturday 11 October it was reported that Russell SuperSolution (known as Russell Investments) was forced to shut down all transactions during the week due to the global financial crisis and that it has frozen accounts and suspended prices and transactions without notice due to market volatility.</text>
