Digital Hub Development Agency Bill, 2002: Report and Final Stages.
I gave specific consideration to this matter because Senators put forward a strong case in respect of it on Committee Stage. In case anyone suggests that this is an effort to muzzle the chief executive officer, I emphasise that it is not. The chief executive officer is entitled to express an opinion on Government policy at any other committee. It is simply that the Committee of Public Accounts deals with the financial outcomes of various agencies and must deal with the actual, rather than a speculative, situation.
