Minister for Transport:
I refer to the Southern Ports
Authority chief executive officer position.
(1) Have interviews been conducted
for the position of CEO of Southern Ports?

interviews and when will the successful candidate commence?
(3) Will the new CEO be from an
organisation external to Southern Ports?

I thank the honourable member for
some notice of the question.
(1) Yes.
(2)–(3) It
will be the Southern Ports Authority's board, assisted by an external
representative from the Department of Transport and the CEO of another port
authority. The selection and appointment process has not yet been completed;
therefore, a start date has not been determined.
(4) No decisions
have been made about permanent appointments to these positions ahead of the
