Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. Did the minister convey the threat by the government to vote against two existing board members if Telstra continued its campaign against the appointment of Mr Cousins? If it was not the minister, who in the government was responsible for conveying this threat? Does the minister have full confidence in the two directors the government threatened to vote off the board?
