Northern Economic Plan

The Hon. R.I. LUCAS (15:14): Can I just clarify for the second question then that the minister is confirming that the Northern Economic Social Implementation Board will report to him and the position of strategic coordinator will be part of that reporting arrangement as well?

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Minister for Employment, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation, Minister for Manufacturing and Innovation, Minister for Automotive Transformation, Minister for Science and Information Economy) (15:15): The position will not report directly to me. I think the honourable member would be aware that positions within departments report ultimately to the chief executive of that department, who then reports to a minister. I would expect that through the chief executive those things will be reported to me.
