The appointments are included in this reporting period because all information relevant to on-boarding members, including members’ formal agreement to the Panel’s terms of reference and other appointment forms, was not finalised until 4 February 2022. Dr Gee is employed by the Commonwealth and is therefore not eligible for remuneration. **Members are remunerated on a daily sitting fee basis only, with no base or annual fees.
