Again, from aunty yesterday:

This is a transcript of The World Today broadcast at 1200 AEST on local =
radio.

Australian Conservation Foundation talks about the future for Garrett=20

The World Today - Tuesday, December  3, 2002 12:16=20

ELEANOR HALL: And as we've just been hearing, it looks as if Peter Garrett =
will continue in his job as president of the Australian Conservation =
Foundation. But his friend and colleague at ACF, executive director Don =
Henry, says he is weighing up how he can make a bigger contribution to =
Australian society.

Don Henry has been speaking to Nick Grimm.

DON HENRY: It's a sad day for rock 'n' roll. I count myself a strong =
Midnight Oil fan, but it's probably good news for those issues that he =
cares deeply about. Like conservation, indigenous issues and other causes. =
And he obviously wants to put more time into that.

NICK GRIMM: So Don Henry, you're close to Peter Garrett. Can you tell us =
what's going through his mind at the moment?=20

DON HENRY: Well look Pete's he's president of the Australian Conservation =
Foundation and we're delighted with that and he puts a lot of time into =
the foundation, cares deeply about the environment and I know he wants to =
put more time into the issues like the environment and other very =
important social causes he cares about.=20

I mean I wouldn't want to speak for Peter. I'm sure he's got really mixed =
feelings because he's brought passion and integrity to his work in rock =
'n' roll and social causes.

NICK GRIMM: A lot of people are asking the question today is Peter Garrett =
contemplating a future in politics? Do you know anything about that?

DON HENRY: Well look, I'm not aware of any of Peter's thoughts in that =
direction. All I know is he's president of the Australian Conservation =
Foundation will be staying on in that role and we're delighted and =
privileged to have him as our president and a passionate and caring =
spokesperson on the environment.

NICK GRIMM: Well, as you say he'll stay on as president of the Australian =
Conservation Foundation, if he's doing that, if he did have a future in =
politics, would that conflict with that role that he currently holds?

DON HENRY: Oh, look I think it's up to Peter to think about his future and =
he'll cross any bridges he needs to cross when he thinks about that.

NICK GRIMM: Has Peter Garrett been frustrated in the past that he hasn't =
been able to make a bigger contribution?

DON HENRY: Oh, I think Peter's one of those people with really an amazing =
amount of energy, passion and commitment and I've always been absolutely =
amazed how much he fits in to a busy life. He's one of those people with =
great capabilities. He's no doubt thought long and hard about what he want =
to do and the time's come for him to pack up the kit bag in his role with =
the Oils.

NICK GRIMM: The environment is obviously figuring very highly in the minds =
of many Australians at the moment. You can see that just in the swings to =
the Greens Party in recent elections. Does somebody like Peter Garrett =
need to give some representation to the Australian people at a time like =
this?

DON HENRY: Well I think Peter gives, he's a very important voice on the =
environment for millions of Australians who care about it, and at the =
moment he, he really does that through his role as president of the =
Australian Conservation Foundation.

NICK GRIMM: Don Henry, would Peter Garrett have your vote if he chose a =
future in politics?

DON HENRY: Peter Garrett certainly has my vote as president of the =
Australian Conservation Foundation and absolutely committed to his role =
and I'm delighted that he's continuing that and no doubt will continue to =
be and increasingly a strong voice for the environment and for people in =
Australia today.

ELEANOR HALL: The executive director of the Australian Conservation =
Foundation, Don Henry, speaking to Nick Grimm
