With all respect, my question is about the Bill and whether anything can be included in it to ensure there is transparency. Governing authorities are closed books and forums in many instances. This is about transparency and I hope the Bill achieves that. Is Ms Donegan confident that everything that can be done to ensure gender balance and fairness is done and that we do not have discrimination in these promotions? Could anything else be included in the Bill so that the structure of the governing authorities is different in order to ensure that we have transparency?
