I support Senator Craughwell on this particular issue regarding the relevant period not exceeding five years. More importantly, given the resignation of the CEO designate, I ask the Minister of State to put on the record the plan of the Department regarding that position, which will become vacant before the Bill has been passed. The position will become vacant at the end of October. What plans are in place to recruit a new CEO? Will the relevant periods cited by the Minister of State in the Bill stand? How does she view the request for a five-year limit requested by Senator Craughwell?
