The Senator's point is well made. None of the directors is currently identified in the way he outlined but the section will require the head of this section to have radiological expertise. The five directors are not named as leading each of the five sections. Currently there is a director general and four sections and this Bill increases the number to five. That will mean five directors. It would be unreasonable to expect that two directors would come from one section and none from another. The expectation is that will be the case and that is the intention of the legislation.
