The Hon. N.J. CENTOFANTI (Leader of the Opposition) (14:38): Supplementary: can the minister confirm that the chief executive of PIRSA was away three weeks ago?

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development, Minister for Forest Industries) (14:38): Yes. I am not sure if it was three weeks ago that he was away, but certainly he didn't chair the first meeting. He expects to chair the subsequent meetings.
