Also FYI Matt Canavan resigned this morning from the Australian Cabinet. So scratch him off the list of meetings. You should ask the Embassy for the list of those actually being lined up for a meeting. We should align what we suggested with what they are doing. Matthew

M: Here are some more details for the IPA activity. Very strong group for the Administrator. I would support a 2 hour event given the level of the folks, and the substance to be covered. Can either do Sydney or Melbourne whichever is best on the schedule. Wanted you to have this before your call tomor.

Hi Matthew I've been talking with the team here and I what I'd like to suggest is that the IPA
hold a two-hour roundtable/meeting/seminar with Scott in either Sydney or Melbourne - whichever is more convenient.
The participants would be as follows:
Professor Peter Ridd from James Cook University. He is professor at the
17cv01906 Sierra Club v. EPA
ED_001523B_00000095-00001
university's College of Science and Engineering and he's written extensively about the scientific method and public policy. You might care to pass on this article to
Scott's team as an example of Peter's arguments http://www.onIineopi nion.com.au/view.asp?article=11455
Dr Jennifer Marohasy who is a Senior Fellow at the Institute of Public Affairs and the editor of a new book 'Climate Change: The Facts 2017'. Jennifer is Australia's
authority of temperature and climate variability.
Dr John Abbot from the University of Tasmania who is researching the use of technology in science policy development
Professor Suri Ratnapla from the University of Queensland. He is a professor of law and an authority on environmental rule-making and federal/state relations.
Professor Aynsley Kellow - Professor of Politics and Policy at the University of Tasmania - author of many works on science and public policy.
All of these people are excellent and I know Scott and his team would learn a great deal from a discussion with them.
Other people who I'd suggest Scott should consider meeting would include Maurice Newman, the former chair of the prime minister's business advisory council, Dr Gary Branks formerly of the Productivity Commission, and Henry Ergas the writer and consultant if Henry happened to be in Australia at the time. I can get
you all of these people's details. I've spoken to Brendan Pearson at the Minerals Council and he mentioned that
he's working with the Embassy.
I'm very happy to help in any way possible. kind regards John
