Raphael Geminder and Ahmed Fahour are retiring and Greg Lee retired to provide a place for Kate Jenkins.I don't know anything about Kate Jenkins but she has an impressive CV, as do our other board members. Does she bring any particular relevant experience or expertise? I am assuming that she is not aligned with the board factions, and that has to be a good thing. Quote Selected

Re: Board change Reply #14 – October 19, 2015, 08:44:45 pm great appointment!as a human right commissioner, she would understand and sympathize the pain and suffering of tens of thousands of Victorians at the hands of the board.Her job is to end that suffering and assist in bringing joy that only a long overdue 17th premiership can bring Quote Selected
