The Hon. N.J. CENTOFANTI (Leader of the Opposition) (14:22): Supplementary: in regard to the recruitment process, has the role been currently advertised? Given the chief executive is on leave, has the chief executive been recalled from leave during this outbreak?

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development, Minister for Forest Industries) (14:23): In regard to the first question, I mentioned in my answer to the original question that I haven't had an update in recent days. I know the recruitment process was underway. The chief executive has been available at all times throughout this on the telephone, and he will be returning to his normal duties, I believe, next week, but I will correct the record if it is Tuesday instead of Monday.
