The new road transport advisory group will be established to advise the Fair Work Commission in relation to matters that involve the road transport industry. The minister will appoint the road transport advisory group members who must be members of or nominated by registered organisations entitled to represent the interests of road transport contractors or road transport businesses. The road transport advisory group may form subcommittees which may include people with appropriate expertise or experience who are not appointed to the road transport advisory group. This approach allows for additional expertise to be brought in as required—for example, where a proposed order will cover different types of road transport work. So it's the role of the minister to appoint people to the road transport advisory group. As for their continued membership, that's a matter for the minister, and I think you referred to the fact that clause 40F(4) allows the minister to revoke a person's appointment to the road transport advisory group. There was a point about the president?
