Mr. John Osborne:

There was the balance between seniority, independence and Dr. Suann's scientific qualifications. We went to the top of the list for this person. We also went to a territory which would be widely accepted to be among the most sophisticated in respect of this field, namely, Australia. There were far more pluses than question marks in the choice. Again, the ultimate report was comprehensive. It went through in fine detail all the processes and came with a very strong endorsement that what was being done was equal to or better than anything Dr. Suann had seen worldwide. There are not many people with the breadth of perspective on such a specialist area that Dr. Suann has. That counterbalances the shadow the Senator might feel is over this. The Senator asks whether, if somebody else was found to do this at some future date, he or she would come to the same conclusion. I am very confident they would.
