I was asked a question by Senator Lambie in relation to the appointment of General Angus Campbell. I'm advised that General Campbell is employed by the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade at band 3 level. It is the usual practice with most head-of-mission positions that appointments are for an initial term of three years, and I'm advised that this is the case for General Campbell's appointment.
