It would be peculiar in the extreme if one of the criteria was not wheat. Thank you for answering the question, Minister. You have now confirmed that no-one on the board need necessarily have any experience in wheat, and the board could be totally selected without anyone having any experience in wheat. Yet this is the body that is going to have the Australian wheat industry in its hands. Do you propose to review this legislation in the future to have more of a nexus between the WEA and wheat growers?
