Legislative Council Hansard – 22 June 2022 – Proof
The Hon. PENNY SHARPE (10:58):
Today it has been reported that one of those was a very well-qualified and outstanding candidate who had worked for Austrade, Westpac and Telstra, and who has won awards, is considered a leading businesswoman, a specialist and an expert in trade, and has had a lot of contact and exposure to both New York and the Americas. At some point this person was accepted for the role and offered the job, and she accepted it. What then becomes unclear is why, at some point, the position that she had been offered was rescinded. She was told, "No, sorry, you don't have the job."
