I thank the member for some notice of this question. A confidential file note was made on the date of the decision; that is, 4 March 2005. I am happy to table the parts of the file note that do not have commercial-in-confidence content and that clearly articulate the decision. The extract follows - The Board endorsed the following: Proposed course of action - a managed exit March-April: Confirm intent to run event in 2005 and 2006 to all stakeholders. November: Conduct 2005 event. December: Give formal notification of 2006 as last event.
