Julia Gillard (Lalor, Australian Labor Party, Deputy Prime Minister) Share this | Hansard source

The task force is led by a leading Australian businessman, Brad Orgill. He is doing, in my view, a very good job. He was the leader of UBS. That is a major, major corporate appointment in this country. I think it is pretty cheap indeed, regardless of political persuasion, to be making assertions about the work of Brad Orgill. It was included in the member’s question today. It is included in quotes from the shadow minister for education in today’s newspaper. I think it is completely inappropriate and quite wrong. So, if the member wants the task force led by a very high calibre Australian to deal with any of these issues, of course she is welcome to do so.
