Nation Building Authority, Amy.

00:46.379 --> 00:48.213
When you answered
the phone before,

00:48.215 --> 00:49.915
you said
"Nation Building Australia".

00:49.917 --> 00:51.884
No, they're not the same thing.

00:51.886 --> 00:54.153
No, we have nothing to do with
the National Broadband Network,

00:54.155 --> 00:55.721
so you don't need
to reply to those.

00:55.723 --> 00:57.656
I've been getting
a lot of calls...

00:57.658 --> 01:00.292
Just give them the number of the
NBN. Nothing to do with you.

01:00.294 --> 01:01.894
-What's this, again?
-A water audit.

01:01.896 --> 01:03.862
They're upgrading our building
to a 6-star rating.

01:03.864 --> 01:06.098
-You need to approve our floor.
-I approve, so just...

01:06.100 --> 01:07.966
-Then you need to sign it.
-OK.

01:07.968 --> 01:11.136
-Where it says 'sign'. -OK.
Is this the last I see of it?

01:11.138 --> 01:12.971
-Yes? -Yes. -Thank you.
-(PHONE RINGS)

01:12.973 --> 01:14.606
-Katie.
-Nation Building Australia.

01:14.608 --> 01:17.242
-Authority, Amy. -Authority.
-Thank you, Katie.

01:17.244 --> 01:20.479
Oh, a geotechnical consultant by
the name of Gavin is coming in,

01:20.481 --> 01:22.815
and I need to see him
the second he arrives.

01:22.817 --> 01:24.550
Is he the structural engineer?

01:24.552 --> 01:28.253
No, a geotechnical consultant
called Gavin, yeah.

01:28.255 --> 01:30.656
What's his last name?

01:30.658 --> 01:34.126
If you say 'Gavin',
his head'll turn round, OK?

01:34.128 --> 01:36.195
-Like "Gavin!" -Yeah.
- "Gavin."

01:36.197 --> 01:37.963
Yep. It doesn't matter
the way you say it.

01:37.965 --> 01:41.600
OK, time lines for everyone.
I have taped them together.

01:41.602 --> 01:43.769
-Feel free to open them up.
-Sorry about that. Alright.

01:43.771 --> 01:46.772
I really didn't want time lines
distributed right now.

01:46.774 --> 01:48.607
Can I say something
right off the bat?

01:48.609 --> 01:50.275
These are highly provisional
time lines.

01:50.277 --> 01:53.078
This'll be a huge project, so
we haven't begun meaningful...

01:53.080 --> 01:54.913
SCOTT: Is anyone else missing
page three?

01:54.915 --> 01:57.249
-I've got two page fours.
-TONY: I wouldn't worry.

01:57.251 --> 01:59.084
-Yes? -Can I just clarify
something? -Sure, Amy.

01:59.086 --> 02:02.121
-Red's the consultation phase.
-That's about time lines again.

02:02.123 --> 02:04.189
Yellow is design and development
and green is the...

02:04.191 --> 02:06.358
-Mine's in black-and-white.
-I wouldn't worry about that.

02:06.360 --> 02:08.293
-What's the purple?
-AMY: There is no purple.

02:08.295 --> 02:10.229
-We'll get the printer fixed.
-Now? -No, not now.

02:10.231 --> 02:12.064
-Shall I minute that?
-Minute what? -The printer.

02:12.066 --> 02:14.967
No, just get it fixed.
Look, time lines down!

02:14.969 --> 02:16.902
-Yes, Katie?
-SCOTT: Oh!

02:16.904 --> 02:19.905
Those ones are normal,
and those ones are gluten-free.

02:19.907 --> 02:21.840
-Who's gluten-free?
-Carol.

02:21.842 --> 02:26.011
-Who's Carol?
-Carol's no longer here.

02:29.349 --> 02:31.884
Do you want me to
get the gluten put back in?

02:31.886 --> 02:33.886
-No, leave it out for today.
-OK.

02:33.888 --> 02:36.388
-Go back to gluten. -TONY: Can
I have everyone's attention?

02:36.390 --> 02:38.790
We're yet to decide exactly
what the NBA is going to do...

02:38.792 --> 02:40.926
-SCOTT: Who's the NBA? -Us.
-AMY: Nation Building Australia.

02:40.928 --> 02:43.462
Authority, Amy. The point is,
nothing's locked in.

02:43.464 --> 02:45.364
Worrying about years two,
three and four is crazy.

02:45.366 --> 02:47.199
-AMY: Tony? -Is this about
the time lines? -No.

02:47.201 --> 02:48.867
-OK.
-With the water audit...

02:48.869 --> 02:50.669
Let's concentrate on Authority
business just for the moment.

02:50.671 --> 02:52.871
-Add it to the time line?
-Forget the time line!

02:52.873 --> 02:54.540
I'm sorry. Just, please.

02:54.542 --> 02:56.875
There's one thing we have to do
over the next six months,

02:56.877 --> 02:59.378
and that is work out what's
possible on a very tricky site,

02:59.380 --> 03:02.681
so that is a very detailed, very
disciplined, very technical job.

03:02.683 --> 03:05.651
We need to really focused on...

03:05.653 --> 03:08.187
-Got a second?
-Sure.

03:08.189 --> 03:09.721
-Hey, guys. How are you?
-SCOTT: Hey.

03:09.723 --> 03:11.790
-What happened here?
-Hey. Oh, it's nothing.

03:11.792 --> 03:15.794
Just a thought. I was driving
in today, and I couldn't...

03:15.796 --> 03:19.031
-Just say it, just say it.
-We need a new push. -A what?

03:19.033 --> 03:20.699
A push. You know, like a thrust.

03:20.701 --> 03:22.534
Again, I have no idea
what you're talking...

03:22.536 --> 03:24.102
Something
we can put out there

03:24.104 --> 03:26.171
just to let people know
that we're on the move.

03:26.173 --> 03:28.340
-Is there a problem?
-No, they love it.

03:28.342 --> 03:31.777
-Nation Building Australia.
-Authority. -Authority.

03:31.779 --> 03:33.545
It's just that since the launch,

03:33.547 --> 03:35.480
with all the coverage
and the attention,

03:35.482 --> 03:37.983
we came out of the blocks
with a big splash,

03:37.985 --> 03:40.052
and now it's all
gone a bit quiet.

03:40.054 --> 03:41.720
That's 'cause it was the launch.

03:41.722 --> 03:44.056
Now we've actually gotta
try and do what we said we'd do.

03:44.058 --> 03:46.525
-What'd we say we'd do, again?
-I've sent you this five times.

03:46.527 --> 03:48.594
In your words.
In your words.

03:48.596 --> 03:50.696
We said we'd oversee a series of
iconic and visionary projects.

03:50.698 --> 03:53.665
-Ah, yes.
-Revitalise inner-urban lands.

03:53.667 --> 03:55.334
Three tiers of government.

03:55.336 --> 03:57.202
Nation-build
for future generations.

03:57.204 --> 03:59.004
Yes, I love all of that.
Where's that gone?

03:59.006 --> 04:01.506
-In the launch. Now we're trying
to actually do it. -Great.

04:01.508 --> 04:03.408
-We'll tell them that.
-Tell them what?

04:03.410 --> 04:05.677
That we're away!
That we're nation-building.

04:05.679 --> 04:07.079
That we're being iconic.

04:07.081 --> 04:09.982
-OK, you know what? I'll have
a think about it. -Great.

04:09.984 --> 04:14.720
Nation-builders! Don't hide
your light under a bushel.

04:15.755 --> 04:18.323
Need some sort of...push.

04:18.325 --> 04:20.592
-A push?
-Or something we can announce.

04:20.594 --> 04:23.061
-Oh. A push.
-NAT: What did he want?

04:23.063 --> 04:25.430
-He wants a push.
-What's a push?

04:25.432 --> 04:27.966
Oh, just to show that we're
underway, we're on the move.

04:27.968 --> 04:29.534
-But we're not.
-No.

04:29.536 --> 04:31.803
You don't have a possibility
or a feasibility

04:31.805 --> 04:33.538
that we could just
let out...

04:33.540 --> 04:35.607
What about... Where did we
get to on the marina?

04:35.609 --> 04:37.909
-Oh, it's very early days.
-Wasn't there a ferry group...

04:37.911 --> 04:39.911
-It's a lot more complicated...
-But they stated...

04:39.913 --> 04:43.015
There's a whole bunch of
dredging issues and other snags.

04:44.217 --> 04:45.884
-Can't push that.
-No.

04:45.886 --> 04:48.387
Oh. Remember we mentioned
the transport corridor?

04:48.389 --> 04:50.722
Remember there's an old railway
line with the easements intact.

04:50.724 --> 04:53.525
-Oh, yeah.
-What stage are we at on that?

04:53.527 --> 04:55.460
That stage -
the mentioning stage.

04:55.462 --> 04:57.229
-We don't have a title?
-No.

04:57.231 --> 04:59.398
-It was a sort of a...
they keep the easement... -No.

04:59.400 --> 05:02.401
-TONY: But nothing written?
-It's mentioned.

05:02.403 --> 05:04.603
-Almost a push.
-It sounds push-able.

05:04.605 --> 05:06.938
-Do you want me to have a look?
-Yeah, could you?

05:06.940 --> 05:09.107
Just in general terms.
Don't spend the day on it.

05:09.109 --> 05:10.809
OK. I won't. Alright.

05:10.811 --> 05:13.278
TONY: 'Cause it might be
something that, um...

05:13.280 --> 05:15.047
-We can push?
-We can push. -Yeah.

05:15.049 --> 05:18.250
Just an annoyance, that's all,
with all the things we've got.

05:18.252 --> 05:20.319
-Why is the water off?
-Don't know.

05:20.321 --> 05:22.487
Alright, let's think.
What are we doing right now?

05:22.489 --> 05:24.156
-Shall I get the time line?
-No, no.

05:24.158 --> 05:26.591
I mean, physically,
what are we doing?

05:26.593 --> 05:28.760
-Surveying.
-OK. And where are we on that?

05:28.762 --> 05:30.629
-About to start.
-Oh.

05:30.631 --> 05:33.231
-Can we announce that?
-What, that we haven't started?

05:33.233 --> 05:35.701
-We're about to.
-Have we finished anything? -No.

05:35.703 --> 05:38.270
I mean, not that we have to.
We're just at the beginning.

05:38.272 --> 05:40.072
-Stage one.
-Stage... Of course, exactly.

05:40.074 --> 05:41.907
All the interesting stuff
starts after that.

05:41.909 --> 05:44.076
Stage two.

05:45.545 --> 05:47.546
-Could we announce that?
-I was just thinking that.

05:47.548 --> 05:50.716
-There's your page three. -Yep.
-And yours. -Thank you.

05:50.718 --> 05:53.452
Ah. The water might be off
at some stage today.

05:53.454 --> 05:55.287
-It's actually off, Amy.
-Oh, good.

05:55.289 --> 05:58.390
No, but I... I wasn't missing
page three, Amy.

05:58.392 --> 06:00.959
AMY: You can keep it
as a spare.

06:00.961 --> 06:03.462
I cannot find
any record of it.

06:03.464 --> 06:05.831
-I think I've got a good map
of the line. -Oh, yep?

06:05.833 --> 06:09.101
-It's marked as
a railway easement. -Excellent.

06:09.103 --> 06:11.570
-What department are you on?
-Google Earth.

06:13.072 --> 06:15.507
I think we need
an official department.

06:15.509 --> 06:17.709
-Like a proper title.
-Hang on, this is interesting.

06:17.711 --> 06:19.544
-What? -With Google Maps,
there's a ruler tool.

06:19.546 --> 06:21.713
-A proper title, Hugh.
-Gotcha.

06:22.882 --> 06:24.883
-Close Google Earth.
-OK.

06:24.885 --> 06:27.552
Sorry. Got caught up with Helen.

06:27.554 --> 06:29.855
-Oh, how is she?
-She is flat out.

06:29.857 --> 06:31.556
As am I.

06:36.829 --> 06:39.398
-Where are we at?
-In what sense? -With the push.

06:39.400 --> 06:42.200
Oh. I only found out about it
this morning.

06:42.202 --> 06:44.836
-Yeah, and where are we at?
-Uh, we don't have one.

06:44.838 --> 06:47.706
We need one. Nation Building
Australia is on the move.

06:47.708 --> 06:49.374
-Authority.
-Yes, with authority.

06:49.376 --> 06:51.109
-On the move. The push is on.
-Yep.

06:51.111 --> 06:54.212
This is interesting - a report
on the line a few years back.

06:54.214 --> 06:56.081
-Really?
-Yeah.

06:56.083 --> 06:58.116
-How did you find that?
-Google.

06:58.118 --> 07:00.952
When I typed 'transport
strategy' and added 'shelved',

07:00.954 --> 07:03.355
"Rail corridor restoration
shelved".

07:03.357 --> 07:05.290
They did a business model.

07:05.292 --> 07:07.793
And there was
an implementation plan as well.

07:07.795 --> 07:09.494
I wonder what happened.

07:09.496 --> 07:11.797
Can I just explain something
about...with the site.

07:11.799 --> 07:14.199
We are literally at
the pre-survey stage.

07:14.201 --> 07:15.901
I mean, literally,
the first survey peg's

07:15.903 --> 07:17.369
about to go in the ground.

07:17.371 --> 07:19.438
-Oh, good news. We are away.
-No, we're not.

07:19.440 --> 07:21.473
We will have some things
to announce at stage two.

07:21.475 --> 07:23.909
-Love it.
-What did you love? -Stage two.

07:23.911 --> 07:26.678
No, I said we WILL have some
things to announce at stage two.

07:26.680 --> 07:28.880
-Yeah. -But we won't be there
for months.

07:28.882 --> 07:31.550
-What are you doing now?
-Stage one.

07:31.552 --> 07:35.120
That feels finished.
Starting stage one IS stage one.

07:35.122 --> 07:37.522
-Now...
-BOTH: We're at stage two.

07:37.524 --> 07:40.158
-It doesn't make sense. -Well,
it does to me, sweetheart.

07:40.160 --> 07:41.993
Why are you being so stingy
with stages?

07:41.995 --> 07:43.762
You can have as many
as you like.

07:43.764 --> 07:46.131
-But they have to make sense.
-Like first pegs going in.

07:46.133 --> 07:47.833
-You just said it.
-It's a peg.

07:47.835 --> 07:51.069
It's not a peg. It's a peg!
Peg goes in, we begin!

07:51.071 --> 07:52.604
-Oh! -Do you love that?
-I love that.

07:52.606 --> 07:55.173
-Let's get it out there.
-Begin what? -The pegs. -Yes.

07:55.175 --> 07:56.908
-Rhonda. Rhonda!
-Yes!

07:56.910 --> 07:58.510
-Rhonda. -Yes.
-You're texting.

07:58.512 --> 08:00.612
-Mm-hm. -Now you're doing it
under the desk.

08:00.614 --> 08:02.781
Look, I've been doing this
a long time.

08:02.783 --> 08:06.785
Trust me. Stage two is exactly
what we're looking for.

08:06.787 --> 08:10.055
It's a push, so come on -
push, push, push.

08:10.057 --> 08:13.291
-NAT: Got a sec?
-Yeah. Just give me two, guys.

08:13.293 --> 08:15.227
Hugh found
something interesting.

08:15.229 --> 08:17.162
-With Google Maps...
-About the railway line.

08:17.164 --> 08:19.431
Oh. Yeah, no. Sorry.
That is interesting.

08:21.000 --> 08:25.070
Turns out there were plans to
recommission the old rail line.

08:25.072 --> 08:27.239
-Were there?
-Quite detailed.

08:27.241 --> 08:29.541
Any idea why the proposal
didn't get up?

08:29.543 --> 08:31.610
I don't think the economic model
stacked up.

08:31.612 --> 08:33.678
It was gonna be
a bit of a white elephant.

08:33.680 --> 08:35.447
-That's not for us to judge.
-NAT: Sure.

08:35.449 --> 08:37.048
-Long time ago.
-Not really.

08:37.050 --> 08:38.817
But a lot's changed
since then, Hugh.

08:38.819 --> 08:41.152
My point is, we shouldn't stop
'cause of one small problem.

08:41.154 --> 08:43.455
-I think there were others.
-Again, long time ago.

08:43.457 --> 08:44.823
Could be a push.

08:44.825 --> 08:46.391
Could be.

08:46.393 --> 08:49.060
I mean,
it could be THE push.

08:50.162 --> 08:51.730
Keep going.

08:59.505 --> 09:02.073
Be there in a sec.
Morning, Amy.

09:02.075 --> 09:03.575
Morning.
Can I grab you for a sec?

09:03.577 --> 09:05.277
-What did you want?
-You need to choose.

09:05.279 --> 09:06.778
-What are they?
-Low-flow shower heads.

09:06.780 --> 09:08.513
-Why am I choosing?
-For the water audit.

09:08.515 --> 09:10.415
-Oh. Is there a difference?
-Not really.

09:10.417 --> 09:13.184
-OK, well, that one.
-Sure. As long as you're happy.

09:13.186 --> 09:15.387
You said there was no diff...
OK, the other one.

09:15.389 --> 09:17.455
-What was that expression?
-What expression?

09:17.457 --> 09:20.325
-You just did this. -One's a bit
more expensive than the other.

09:20.327 --> 09:22.260
You said that there was
no difference between them.

09:22.262 --> 09:23.929
Well, in water saving,
they're the same.

09:23.931 --> 09:26.998
-Well, one saves more than the
other. -Which one saves more?

09:27.900 --> 09:29.834
Um...the...left...

09:29.836 --> 09:33.204
No, that doesn't look right.
Which is the more expensive one?

09:33.206 --> 09:35.640
I mean, it feels like
an announcement.

09:35.642 --> 09:37.709
It just feels like
a long way off, though.

09:37.711 --> 09:40.445
-It's got 'hub' written on it.
That reads well. -It does.

09:40.447 --> 09:42.647
The problem with all this
is most of them will take

09:42.649 --> 09:44.516
at least the rest of the year
to complete.

09:44.518 --> 09:46.818
-And stage two gets announced
next month. -Yeah.

09:46.820 --> 09:48.887
When was that decided?

09:48.889 --> 09:51.590
There was an email. From Rhonda.

09:51.592 --> 09:53.425
Oh, could we just say
in this office,

09:53.427 --> 09:55.260
there's no such thing
as stage two.

09:55.262 --> 09:56.962
-Want me to stop the new
time line? -Forget that.

09:56.964 --> 09:59.130
It's gonna have 'stage two'
written on it, in orange.

09:59.132 --> 10:00.632
-Whatever.
-OK.

10:00.634 --> 10:02.701
What is something that
we could start and complete

10:02.703 --> 10:04.669
within, say, a month?

10:06.639 --> 10:09.808
-Site branding.
-What's that?

10:10.977 --> 10:12.844
-I don't know.
-NAT: Sorry.

10:12.846 --> 10:15.213
I'm sorry, I'm sorry. That took
longer than anything should.

10:15.215 --> 10:17.082
-No worries.
-Right. How's it going?

10:17.084 --> 10:18.783
-Good, good.
-The railway?

10:18.785 --> 10:21.453
-Yeah, good. I spoke to
a bunch of people. -No issues?

10:21.455 --> 10:24.255
No. Easement remains,
it's all intact.

10:24.257 --> 10:26.591
-Well, that's good.
-Oh, uh...

10:26.593 --> 10:29.327
One of the planners, involved
with the original report,

10:29.329 --> 10:32.497
he's a cyclist -
like, he rides a bicycle...

10:32.499 --> 10:35.867
-I know what he does. -He's part
of a peak cycling body.

10:35.869 --> 10:39.070
-Which is a group of...
-I know what a peak body is.

10:39.072 --> 10:41.306
-He had some minor reservations.
-Did he?

10:41.308 --> 10:43.508
Couple of queries. Wondered
if he could come and see us.

10:43.510 --> 10:47.145
Did he mention a bike path?

10:47.147 --> 10:50.181
No, just a few reservations
and queries.

10:50.183 --> 10:53.218
-That's a bike path.
-I don't think so.

10:53.220 --> 10:56.121
Alright, you know what?
See if he can come in today.

10:56.123 --> 10:58.223
OK.

11:02.962 --> 11:06.564
Amy! Why is the dishwasher
in the corridor?

11:06.566 --> 11:09.334
-Because of the audit.
-What aspect?

11:09.336 --> 11:11.636
-It's 3.5-star.
-Isn't that good?

11:11.638 --> 11:13.571
We're getting a 5-star.

11:13.573 --> 11:16.141
-Well, when does that come?
-Should've been here yesterday.

11:16.143 --> 11:18.543
-Well, when does this go?
-Should've gone this morning.

11:18.545 --> 11:20.545
-KATIE: Tony?
-Well... Yeah?

11:20.547 --> 11:22.247
-It's Rhonda.
-Oh. Rhonda.

11:22.249 --> 11:23.848
Scotty, can you bring
your time line?

11:23.850 --> 11:26.584
-Rhonda, it's Tony.
-RHONDA:<i> Great, love it. Hello?</i>

11:26.586 --> 11:30.021
-Yep. OK, have you read
the email?<i> -Yep.</i>

11:30.023 --> 11:31.489
All the way to the end

11:31.491 --> 11:33.425
or just the subject heading
and the first paragraph?

11:33.427 --> 11:35.593
<i> Yep, yeah, I definitely will,</i>
<i> but listen.</i>

11:35.595 --> 11:38.363
<i> Site branding - love it.</i>
<i> Let's lock that in.</i>

11:38.365 --> 11:40.865
Yeah, can I just explain
what site branding is, Rhonda?

11:40.867 --> 11:42.600
<i> -Mmm, mmm, please. Go.</i>
-OK.

11:42.602 --> 11:44.803
As it pertains to the site...
you know with big developments,

11:44.805 --> 11:47.038
they often have a fence
with the name on it?

11:47.040 --> 11:48.640
<i> -Mmm, love it.</i>
-Yeah.

11:48.642 --> 11:50.208
And sometimes they have
photos or designs

11:50.210 --> 11:51.776
of what it will look like?

11:51.778 --> 11:53.445
<i> Oh, love it.</i>

11:53.447 --> 11:56.247
Can you stop saying that until
I finish the whole explanation?

11:56.249 --> 11:58.616
<i> -Sure, sure. Love it, yep.</i>
-Yeah. OK.

11:58.618 --> 12:01.753
And sometimes they'll add a flag
or bunting or whatever...

12:01.755 --> 12:03.421
<i> -Love bunting.</i>
-Yeah, yeah.

12:03.423 --> 12:05.623
But at the end of the day,
with site branding,

12:05.625 --> 12:08.593
I mean, that's all it is -
it's just a fence.

12:08.595 --> 12:10.962
And a gate. They often have
a big gate, Rhonda.

12:10.964 --> 12:14.899
RHONDA:<i> OK, well, tick to that.</i>
 <i> Now, we're launching stage tw.</i>

12:14.901 --> 12:17.902
<i> We've already got pegs.</i>
<i> Now we've got site branding.</i>

12:17.904 --> 12:19.571
<i> Sounds very exciting to me.</i>

12:19.573 --> 12:21.539
OK, Rhonda,
can I just ask you something?

12:21.541 --> 12:24.042
Can we just keep a lid on it
for the moment?

12:24.044 --> 12:26.044
<i> -Yep, yep, absolutely.</i>
-Just for now?

12:26.046 --> 12:28.847
<i> -Mm-hm, yep.</i>
-Did you hear what I said?

12:28.849 --> 12:30.615
<i> Mm-hm, yep. Yep.</i>

12:30.617 --> 12:32.584
It's just often when
you're multi-tasking, you...

12:32.586 --> 12:35.286
<i> -Yep. Yep. Yeah. What?</i>
-OK.

12:35.288 --> 12:38.389
-Just keep a lid on it.
<i> -Yes, lid. Love it.</i>

12:38.391 --> 12:40.892
OK.

12:40.894 --> 12:43.762
-One of the surveyors is here.
-Oh, does he work with Gavin?

12:43.764 --> 12:45.597
Possibly.

12:45.599 --> 12:47.699
Well, does he have
a lot of plans with him?

12:47.701 --> 12:49.734
-Um...
-Does he have a big tube?

12:49.736 --> 12:51.703
-Yes! -OK. Just put him
in the boardroom.

12:51.705 --> 12:53.638
Is it OK if I move
the shower heads?

12:53.640 --> 12:56.241
Hello. Sorry. Hi.
Thanks for coming in.

12:56.243 --> 12:58.076
Natalie.
Nice to meet you. Bruce.

12:58.078 --> 13:00.712
-Hi. Hugh. How you going?
-Nat.

13:00.714 --> 13:02.213
-Shall we start?
-BRUCE: Yes.

13:02.215 --> 13:03.948
It's very early days
for the project.

13:03.950 --> 13:06.918
We're gonna get to the broader
transport issues down the track.

13:06.920 --> 13:09.587
We're just having a quick look
at the old railway line.

13:09.589 --> 13:11.923
Sure - we thought we'd just
take this opportunity

13:11.925 --> 13:13.758
to make our feelings clear.

13:13.760 --> 13:16.995
-You're not against trains,
are you? -No, no, no. No.

13:16.997 --> 13:19.130
-NAT: Good.
-Not per se.

13:19.132 --> 13:21.299
But say there was
an announcement

13:21.301 --> 13:23.301
coming out of this office

13:23.303 --> 13:25.403
sometime in the future...

13:25.405 --> 13:27.272
I think it's next month.

13:27.274 --> 13:31.042
..and that announcement
was to float the possibility

13:31.044 --> 13:33.745
of reconsidering
an earlier proposal

13:33.747 --> 13:36.281
to reconsider the possibility

13:36.283 --> 13:38.283
of recommissioning
an old train line.

13:38.285 --> 13:43.388
I mean...you...you wouldn't have
an objection to that?

13:43.390 --> 13:45.824
-As we get the information...
-(KNOCK AT DOOR)

13:45.826 --> 13:48.059
-Yep? -Can I grab you
for five minutes?

13:48.061 --> 13:50.161
Yeah, yeah. I'll be right back.

13:50.163 --> 13:53.398
Actually, 10.
Well, half an hour.

13:53.400 --> 13:56.267
Why don't we take a break?
Just...morning tea.

13:56.269 --> 13:57.802
-Have we still got
those muffins? -Yeah.

13:57.804 --> 14:00.138
-Is anyone here
gluten-intolerant? -Carol.

14:00.140 --> 14:03.341
-Yeah, but...
-She's not here. -No. OK.

14:13.018 --> 14:16.354
Yep. Site branding. It's exactly
what I thought it was.

14:16.356 --> 14:18.923
A fence you put... I don't see
what the urgency was.

14:18.925 --> 14:21.426
I walked out on a meeting
with the geotechnical guys.

14:21.428 --> 14:24.629
Rhonda wanted you to see
an example before our meeting.

14:24.631 --> 14:26.731
-What meeting?
-With the design team.

14:26.733 --> 14:28.833
-What design team?
-The site branding design team.

14:28.835 --> 14:31.302
Uh, Karnsten's here to see you.

14:31.304 --> 14:33.705
Yep. Yep. If you want to
just take a seat.

14:33.707 --> 14:35.306
It's Karsten.

14:39.812 --> 14:42.413
Karlsen? Karst...en? Carson.

14:42.415 --> 14:44.182
-Karsten.
-Sorry, Karsten.

14:44.184 --> 14:46.351
Karsten. Oh, good.
Uh, here's Scott.

14:46.353 --> 14:48.887
-Scott, Karsten. -Carson.
-Karsten. -Karnsten.

14:48.889 --> 14:51.489
No, there's no 'N'. Oh, I expect
there's one at the end.

14:51.491 --> 14:53.925
-Yeah. -Yep. And a 'K'
at the beginning? -Sure.

14:53.927 --> 14:57.295
-KARSTEN: OK. -Yep, let's get
started. -Yeah, let's away.

14:57.297 --> 14:59.764
OK, now, before I show you
some options,

14:59.766 --> 15:02.200
I thought we'd start with
some ideation...

15:02.202 --> 15:04.269
Can we do that at the end?

15:04.271 --> 15:05.870
-How would that work?
-What's that mean?

15:05.872 --> 15:07.705
Sorry, keep going.
Yep. Sorry.

15:07.707 --> 15:11.442
-What is the project?
-I don't know that yet.

15:11.444 --> 15:13.378
OK, what building or buildings

15:13.380 --> 15:16.214
do you see being built
on the site?

15:16.216 --> 15:19.350
Oh, well, something iconic,
uh, something visionary.

15:19.352 --> 15:21.452
-Something nation-building.
-There it is.

15:21.454 --> 15:23.788
Do you know anything
that definitely will be built

15:23.790 --> 15:25.556
on the site?

15:27.092 --> 15:32.563
Uh...definitely a fence,
plus or minus a gate.

15:32.565 --> 15:37.235
-Yeah. It looks like we're gonna
build a fence. -RHONDA: Mm-hm.

15:37.237 --> 15:40.505
OK, you said something
interesting before.

15:40.507 --> 15:42.507
That I've got a meeting
at 2:30?

15:42.509 --> 15:44.509
That it was a place
of possibilities.

15:44.511 --> 15:46.010
-TONY: Oh, yeah.
-I love this.

15:46.012 --> 15:49.180
-Yeah. -RHONDA: You love this?
-This is what he does.

15:49.182 --> 15:50.915
TONY: I-T-I... Yep.

15:50.917 --> 15:54.018
Now, let's just tease that out
a little bit.

15:54.020 --> 15:56.454
I've sort of teased out
by spelling it.

15:56.456 --> 15:58.656
-Have we got any coloured
markers in here? -I'll get some.

15:58.658 --> 16:02.026
-Thank you, Scotty.
-We might... Yep.

16:07.833 --> 16:12.236
According to Google Earth,
I think this is the bit here.

16:12.238 --> 16:14.539
Well, there's a train line here.

16:14.541 --> 16:16.975
HUGH: Oh, OK.
I reckon that's it, then.

16:16.977 --> 16:21.212
-Actually, that's a giveaway.
-Railway. -Yes. Nice.

16:22.514 --> 16:25.783
-I guess it would make
a perfect bike path. -Sorry?

16:25.785 --> 16:29.253
Well, it's flat and wide.
I can see their point.

16:29.255 --> 16:31.356
Can you also see
a railway line?

16:31.358 --> 16:33.558
Yeah. You know,
if you look at it...

16:33.560 --> 16:37.795
All we're saying is, let's
use it for its original purpose.

16:39.932 --> 16:43.134
-Trains.
-Yes.

16:44.536 --> 16:47.839
KATIE: Tony?
Did you need to see a Colin?

16:47.841 --> 16:49.707
-No.
-Structural engineer?

16:49.709 --> 16:51.809
Oh, yeah. Is he here
about the pilings?

16:51.811 --> 16:54.979
-Or the geotechnical survey?
-No, he's here about a fence.

16:54.981 --> 16:59.250
Something to do with
site branding, through Rhonda.

16:59.252 --> 17:01.719
Can you get him a coffee
and pop him in the boardroom?

17:01.721 --> 17:04.389
The water's still off.
I have to go downstairs.

17:04.391 --> 17:07.225
-Actually, take the 10.
I'll have one. -Sure.

17:08.827 --> 17:11.462
Scotty, Tony. Do you know
anything about this Colin guy?

17:11.464 --> 17:13.798
A structural engineer?
We've got a...

17:13.800 --> 17:17.201
You did know?
No, I didn't get the email.

17:17.203 --> 17:20.271
But my settings are the same...
Just hang on a second.

17:20.273 --> 17:23.708
Stage two. You're a genius!

17:23.710 --> 17:26.077
OK. Jim... OK.

17:26.079 --> 17:28.479
Mate, you need
to understand something...

17:28.481 --> 17:30.081
Where'd he go?

17:31.650 --> 17:33.351
OK, where...

17:36.722 --> 17:39.090
Did Jim come just through... No?

17:44.930 --> 17:46.464
-Colin, is it?
-Yes.

17:46.466 --> 17:49.934
Did a guy just walk past here
with a thing on his...

17:49.936 --> 17:52.003
-He's...
-Did he?

17:53.672 --> 17:56.507
-Sorry about the rush, Colin.
-Oh, no worries.

17:56.509 --> 17:58.609
-I can see you're busy.
-Yeah, a little bit on.

17:58.611 --> 18:01.412
At the end of the day, it's not
a big job, though, is it?

18:01.414 --> 18:03.314
No. But you want it
before the launch?

18:03.316 --> 18:05.783
-Oh, yeah, whenever that is.
-The 22nd.

18:05.785 --> 18:07.752
How'd you know
it was the 22nd?

18:07.754 --> 18:10.021
-At least, that's what
I was told. -KATIE: Yep.

18:10.023 --> 18:12.423
Apparently they wanted it
fast-tracked?

18:12.425 --> 18:15.026
Yep, that's right -
22nd, 9:30.

18:17.062 --> 18:18.696
-Thanks, Colin.
-Yeah.

18:18.698 --> 18:20.498
-Are you right to
see yourself out? -Yes.

18:20.500 --> 18:22.900
-Good on you. Thank you.
-KATIE: Did you not get told?

18:22.902 --> 18:26.304
-Why is there two dishwashers?
-The one you ordered didn't fit.

18:26.306 --> 18:29.006
so we either adjust the bench
or get a different model.

18:29.008 --> 18:31.008
Or put the first one back.
It's 3.5 stars.

18:31.010 --> 18:32.810
-Amy wants five stars.
-Where is Amy?

18:32.812 --> 18:34.445
Getting another dishwasher.

18:41.687 --> 18:43.654
How's it going?

18:43.656 --> 18:45.490
-Good.
-Really?

18:45.492 --> 18:49.427
Uh, yeah. It's perfect. The
whole corridor's still there.

18:49.429 --> 18:53.865
So there's no planning issues
or anything?

18:53.867 --> 18:56.667
None that we could find.

18:56.669 --> 18:58.736
So there's nothing
standing in our way?

18:58.738 --> 19:00.271
Apart from the cyclists.

19:00.273 --> 19:02.540
-How did cyclists get involved?
-Well, they came in...

19:02.542 --> 19:06.043
What's the point of lanyards
if we can't keep cyclists out?

19:06.045 --> 19:07.545
-I knew they had an issue.
-An issue?

19:07.547 --> 19:09.213
Why are cyclists against
an old railway line

19:09.215 --> 19:10.882
being turned into
a railway line?

19:10.884 --> 19:13.351
-They think it's the thin end
of the wedge. -What wedge?

19:13.353 --> 19:15.119
When these opportunities
come up, they feel

19:15.121 --> 19:17.121
if they don't put
their foot down, they lose out.

19:17.123 --> 19:19.323
Oh, seriously?
I need something for the 22nd.

19:19.325 --> 19:21.392
And right now, it is a choice
between a potentially

19:21.394 --> 19:23.794
headline-grabbing transport
initiative and a fence.

19:23.796 --> 19:25.796
You know what -
I just need one or two groups

19:25.798 --> 19:28.666
that the journos can ring on the
day to say how wonderful it is

19:28.668 --> 19:30.902
that we're recommitting
to public transport, that's all.

19:30.904 --> 19:33.271
-We'll do a ring-around.
-TONY: OK.

19:33.273 --> 19:34.739
No, no, no,
very early stages.

19:34.741 --> 19:36.440
We're just touching base
with stakeholder groups.

19:36.442 --> 19:38.876
Yes - so would the Public
Transport Users Association

19:38.878 --> 19:41.012
be broadly supportive?

19:41.014 --> 19:42.747
OK, just...just supportive.

19:42.749 --> 19:45.049
So I guess what I'm asking is
would Rail Australia

19:45.051 --> 19:47.451
be supportive -
generally supportive?

19:47.453 --> 19:49.320
I mean, in principle,
would you support...

19:49.322 --> 19:51.322
Uh-huh. And why's that?

19:51.324 --> 19:54.025
I mean, supportive and broadly
supportive are quite close...

19:54.027 --> 19:55.793
No, OK. Just supportive.

19:55.795 --> 19:58.896
But in terms of support,
on a scale of 1 to 10?

19:58.898 --> 20:00.431
Right.

20:00.433 --> 20:02.733
And when you say one,
which end?

20:02.735 --> 20:04.902
I'm sorry, I can't give you
an answer on tolls.

20:04.904 --> 20:07.138
No, we're not involved with
the very fast train.

20:07.140 --> 20:09.207
No, no,
that's a different group.

20:09.209 --> 20:11.309
No... I'm not sure
what their number is, sorry.

20:11.311 --> 20:13.477
NAT: Well, can you explain
what those objections would be?

20:14.846 --> 20:17.648
Oh, I was expect... Yep.

20:17.650 --> 20:19.383
No, no, that's fine.

20:19.385 --> 20:22.086
So no is the answer. Alright.

20:33.232 --> 20:36.534
Come on, Karnsen. Kartsen.
What's his name, again?

20:36.536 --> 20:38.736
I've forgotten
where the 'N' goes now.

20:38.738 --> 20:41.505
Honestly, I don't know why
he can't email us this stuff.

20:41.507 --> 20:43.541
Just... Rhonda said
to get a proper feel...

20:43.543 --> 20:45.776
Take my advice -
don't listen to Rhonda, alright?

20:45.778 --> 20:49.046
-Is that something you sit on?
-I think it's a sculpture.

20:49.048 --> 20:51.382
-Morning, Tony.
-Oh, good morning, Carson.

20:51.384 --> 20:53.651
-How are you, Scott?
-Yeah.

20:53.653 --> 20:56.454
-Have you guys been here before?
-Uh, no, no.

20:56.456 --> 20:58.522
-Why don't I give you
a quick tour? -SCOTT: Great.

20:58.524 --> 21:00.157
-Look, I don't...
-OK, great.

21:00.159 --> 21:03.794
Now, you'll have to forgive me
if some of these seem rushed.

21:03.796 --> 21:06.230
It's a tight time line
to make the 21st.

21:06.232 --> 21:08.733
-It's actually the 22nd.
-No, it is the 21st.

21:09.935 --> 21:11.802
Can you cc me
on this stuff?

21:11.804 --> 21:14.505
Whenever you get an email
from us, can you fire it to me?

21:14.507 --> 21:16.374
-She texted me.
-Alright.

21:16.376 --> 21:19.577
Can I get everyone just to...
close their eyes?

21:19.579 --> 21:22.580
Given it's the 21st now,
I reckon we keep our eyes open.

21:22.582 --> 21:25.916
OK. Well, let's look
at a few examples.

21:25.918 --> 21:28.386
-Oh!
-OK, so...

21:28.388 --> 21:31.422
This is great. This is one
that we're doing in Brisbane.

21:31.424 --> 21:33.724
Just with a few
3-D representations.

21:33.726 --> 21:36.260
TONY: Yeah,
that's great, Karnsk...

21:36.262 --> 21:38.763
You know what?
You can email this stuff to us.

21:38.765 --> 21:40.998
I mean, you don't need
to drag us all over...

21:41.000 --> 21:42.566
You're not dragging us.

21:42.568 --> 21:45.036
Well, this way,
you get a feel for the visuals

21:45.038 --> 21:46.837
in some sort of context.

21:46.839 --> 21:48.739
-Better ideation.
-Indeed.

21:48.741 --> 21:51.475
Now, this is...this is
something interesting.

21:51.477 --> 21:54.578
This is one
we did in Jakarta.

21:54.580 --> 21:56.580
-NAT: How'd it go?
-SCOTT: Good. -TONY: Awful.

21:56.582 --> 21:58.449
Big long meeting
about a fence.

21:58.451 --> 22:01.752
But have you managed to come up
with anything from your side?

22:01.754 --> 22:03.654
-What?
-For the push.

22:03.656 --> 22:05.723
-TONY: No.
-Oh.

22:05.725 --> 22:07.258
What do you mean "Oh"?

22:07.260 --> 22:09.293
Public Transport Users
Association -

22:09.295 --> 22:11.796
what possible issue could they
have with public transport?

22:11.798 --> 22:14.265
Fare structures, zones.

22:14.267 --> 22:16.901
There was just a bunch of
potential unresolved issues.

22:16.903 --> 22:20.137
We'll resolve them, but they
can support us in principle.

22:21.039 --> 22:23.374
BOTH: Not by the 21st.

22:23.376 --> 22:25.343
AMA. That's not the AMA.

22:25.345 --> 22:27.044
They don't have
an official policy,

22:27.046 --> 22:29.980
but it's passive transport, and
they've got an obesity issue.

22:29.982 --> 22:32.183
I think the cyclists
got to them.

22:33.318 --> 22:35.319
Why would
the Rail Heritage Society

22:35.321 --> 22:36.854
have a problem with railways?

22:36.856 --> 22:38.856
They think the trains
might damage the tracks.

22:38.858 --> 22:41.492
-That's a fair point.
-We're putting in new tracks.

22:41.494 --> 22:43.694
-They want to preserve the
old ones. -Oh, for fuck's sake!

22:43.696 --> 22:45.663
We're not gonna get it sorted
by the 21st.

22:45.665 --> 22:47.765
Are you telling me
no-one is for this proposal?

22:47.767 --> 22:50.601
-Infrastructure Australia.
-Only they want it as a tunnel.

22:50.603 --> 22:52.970
So you'd have the trains
going through and...

22:52.972 --> 22:55.973
-No-one? -In the end, I think
most of them will be for it.

22:55.975 --> 22:57.708
But not by the 21st.

22:57.710 --> 22:59.377
No.

23:00.946 --> 23:03.681
-Shall I get the time line?
-No. -No.

23:06.952 --> 23:10.321
Nation-builders! Hey!

23:12.391 --> 23:14.992
JIM: There's the man
I've been looking for!

23:14.994 --> 23:17.261
-How good is this?
-TONY: What?

23:17.263 --> 23:19.997
-It's a mock-up, of the fence.
-(KATIE GASPS)

23:19.999 --> 23:21.832
-Have you not seen it?
-No.

23:21.834 --> 23:24.001
-It's going in the press pack.
-KATIE: Great.

23:24.003 --> 23:26.537
Well done. We are all set
for the 17th.

23:26.539 --> 23:29.440
-21st.
-Ah, they moved the date again.

23:29.442 --> 23:32.543
But one question
does keep coming up.

23:32.545 --> 23:35.413
-What is Stage 2?
-No. No, no-one's asked that.

23:35.415 --> 23:38.482
More, what's something
the ministers can do on the day?

23:38.484 --> 23:40.384
-Ministers?
-Yeah, two state, three federal.

23:40.386 --> 23:42.219
All due to you.
You should be very proud.

23:42.221 --> 23:45.189
-But what's something they
can do? -I don't know. Speak?

23:45.191 --> 23:47.691
Oh, they'll speak!
Don't worry about that.

23:47.693 --> 23:50.694
Physically, once they've all
said what an exciting day it is,

23:50.696 --> 23:53.164
is there something
they can actually do?

23:53.166 --> 23:55.833
-This is what I tried to point
out. -Doesn't have to be big!

23:55.835 --> 23:57.701
Just something symbolic
of what we're doing.

23:57.703 --> 24:00.070
-We haven't done anything. -You
put up a fence. -And a gate.

24:00.072 --> 24:01.539
There's a gate?
Can they open the gate?

24:01.541 --> 24:03.541
-It's locked.
-Can they unlock it?

24:03.543 --> 24:05.943
Maybe have an official padlock,
they can hand over the keys.

24:05.945 --> 24:07.445
-I love this.
-No, no, no, no, no.

24:07.447 --> 24:09.313
-Can they plant something?
-What? -A mighty oak.

24:09.315 --> 24:11.215
-It's grassland.
-Can they dig something?

24:11.217 --> 24:13.117
They've got
those shiny shovels they use.

24:13.119 --> 24:16.353
-We do need to do
that soil testing. -Yeah, we do.

24:16.355 --> 24:18.022
Perfect.
There's four ideas. Yeah?

24:18.024 --> 24:20.858
I'll leave it with you.
Have a think, get back to me.

24:20.860 --> 24:22.593
-OK.
-Great.

24:22.595 --> 24:24.428
Which one
are you gonna pick?

24:35.440 --> 24:38.242
Parking information for you and
the delegation's just in there.

24:38.244 --> 24:41.278
-And security's from 8:00.
-Katie, Authority.

24:41.280 --> 24:43.781
-What? -We're
Nation Building Authority.

24:43.783 --> 24:45.616
(GROANS) I'll redo those sheets.

24:47.018 --> 24:49.253
-You OK?
-(SIGHS)

24:49.255 --> 24:51.522
We're about to launch a stage
in this project

24:51.524 --> 24:54.258
that is exactly the same
as the previous stage.

24:54.260 --> 24:56.794
-And we're gonna have
five dignitaries... -Seven.

24:56.796 --> 24:58.295
Traditional owners.

24:58.297 --> 25:00.197
..seven dignitaries
standing in front of a fence.

25:00.199 --> 25:02.433
-And a gate.
-And a gate.

25:02.435 --> 25:06.136
For the purpose of driving a peg
into the ground.

25:07.706 --> 25:09.874
You know what really worries me?

25:09.876 --> 25:12.209
That Rhonda might pull this off?

25:12.211 --> 25:14.745
She just might pull it off.

25:14.747 --> 25:17.648
NEWSREADER:<i> Global sharemarket</i>
<i> jitters on inflation fears.</i>
