Minister, I remind you that this is the establishment of a new entity, with the board confusingly being called the Australia Council Board. So this is a decision of your government. Again, I ask: could you specifically address my question as to why the minister needs these powers which should not be subject to disallowance? I'd appreciate if you could go directly to the question, please.
