I have just one final question. In relation to the directions that the CEO can be provided with, it says in clause 46(1)(b):

... requiring the provision of a report or advice on a matter relating to Safe Work Australia’s functions.

Would it be the intention of the government to make that report public or, if not public, at least available to the ministerial council or to the members of Safe Work Australia, or will it be simply a report that is between the CEO and the minister and which no other person will be entitled to see?
