The chair of that group, as the member for Flinders asked me before, was the deputy secretary of the department of the environment. The member for Flinders asked me questions about its reporting and accountability arrangements.

I have nothing before me which would indicate that that group in any way did anything other than the advice that they received on the question of safety standards.
