		Flint was reappointed as chairman of the Australian Broadcasting Authority, Mr.
		I understand that the Federal police in making a decision to reject or accept a matter for investigation, give regard to the nature of the alleged crime, the effect of the criminality involved and the resources required for the investigation.
		It seems the fourth estate, the bureaucracy, the judiciary and the police seem to be unwilling or incapable of initiating investigations into allegations against members of the Federal government.
