I have a supplementary question. I am sure that not even the minister would appoint an ex-Rio Tinto executive with absolutely no connection whatsoever to Port Hedland to chair the board, would she? The SPEAKER: I guess there was a question at the end. Ms A.J. MacTIERNAN

As I was saying, the Port Hedland Port Authority is undergoing a period of considerable change and, indeed, someone will be appointed to that port authority who will bring very appropriate experience and skills to the job.
