APY Elections

The Hon. T.J. STEPHENS (15:16): Supplementary question: can the minister advise us if they have elected a deputy chairperson? Also, what is the status of the CEO? Is it still a temporary basis, or has there been a permanent appointment?

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Minister for Manufacturing and Innovation, Minister for Automotive Transformation, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation) (15:16): I can inform the honourable member that I am advised that Bernard Singer was elected Deputy Chair of the APY Executive Board, and in relation to the General Manager, Mr Richard King was appointed—and I will get the exact dates—one and a half months ago on a three-month interim contract while a fuller recruitment process was undertaken. I don't think there has been a permanent appointment, but I understand that process is underway.
