[by video link] Minister, I raised in my second reading contribution that the advisory board for APVMA already exists under the previous administration act but that the government has failed to appoint positions to this board for a number of years. The last appointments expired in 2015. Do you agree with this, and can you explain to the chamber why there have been no appointments to this board now for the last six years?
