Even the Burnside council has had a few issues over the time I have been the member for Bragg. There was certainly, under different mayoral leadership out there, a very substantial inquiry. I recall a former Auditor-General was called in to conduct an inquiry, and I think Mr Hanlon may have been at that time—</text>

In any event, I did from time to time meet with him about just local issues, and sometimes he was present for citizenship ceremonies and the like. My recollection is that he was quite well regarded as the CE of the council at that time and acted accordingly.</text>
