          <by role="member" id="5244">The Hon. J.E. HANSON (14:55):</by>  As a supplementary, I will slightly vary the original question: how is the chair's conduct consistent with section 13.3 of the commissioner's determination, which says:</text>
        <text id="20201202d83e11b960c244fc90000230">
          <inserted>…reimbursement of expenses which are clearly the board member's responsibility, such as car parking and child care expenses, are not to be provided.</inserted>

          <by role="member" id="2742">The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (Minister for Human Services) (14:55):</by>  In relation to childcare expenses, I am not aware that the chair of the board has claimed any; in fact, I would be very surprised if he has. In relation to car parking expenses, my understanding is that he was merely providing some receipts to verify those expenses.</text>
