The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Leader of the Opposition) (14:27): I have another supplementary question: who was on the interview panel for that selection process?

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) (14:27): There was a range of people. I think Dr Andrew Dunbar from the department was on the interview panel, Raymond Spencer, the chair of the Economic Development Board was certainly involved in the selection process, as well as Alistair McReadie who, of course, gave advice to the government, through a RedFire Consulting report about how the government would look to respond to this, a couple of years ago, which we did in a very big way in the last budget.
