This is not my last question. My question is for the Minister for Youth and Sport, Senator Colbeck. The federal government peak sports body, Sport Australia, is proposing that directors of Australia's national sporting federations have a maximum term of eight years. Can the minister state if the government supports that proposal and, if so, explain why the government feels it necessary to mandate term limits on sporting bodies but not in other areas of public interest like politics and corporate boards?
