My question is to the Minister for Broadband, Communications and the Digital Economy, Senator Conroy. Can the minister inform the Senate of the government’s recently announced changes to the board appointments process for the national broadcasters, the ABC and SBS? How will the new process end political interference in the appointment of board members and restore integrity and independence to the boards of these important national institutions?
