Q1. Why didn't we disclose the proxy position to the ASX with the formal addresses as many other companies now do to allow for a more fully informed AGM debate. Also, have there been any material protest votes against any of today's 11 items of business, starting with this remuneration report item?

Q2. There is no sign of any archive of the webcast of last year's AGM on our website. The annual report says that we have 5,173 shareholders but less than 100 will be watching live today. As the one event of the year focused on retail shareholders what are we doing to ensure as many shareholders as possible have access to the full AGM debate? Will the chair undertake to publish a full archive of the AGM webcast on our website, just like with the regular earnings releases? Even better, why not lodge a transcript with the ASX?

Q3. Could the CEO provide some early thoughts on what the second Trump administration will mean for our business, including the proposed appointed of anti-vaxxer and conspiracy theorist Robert F Kennedy junior to run the all important US Department of Health and Human Services.

Q4. Options are not regarded as good governance for independent directors who should be paid either cash or regular ordinary shares and certainly shouldn't be on similar equity incentive programs to the executive team. Why not move to a conventional pay model for our NEDs commencing with the next AGM. Please don't come back and ask for any more options grant approvals for the NEDs next year.
