Once again, such thinking has no place in an inquiry. You can't go assuming this or that will be central to the investigation before it even gets under way. You collect all the info, analyse it and then decide what's important and what's not. It may be a part of it but you can't possibly declare that it will be central to it.
I think there's an interesting question there. I believe Wong commented on the issue on Insiders, I've not yet watched it but I'm eager to hear her take on it.

Morrison government finally admits there will be electric utes, and EVs can tow caravans
The Morrison government has finally conceded that there will be all-electric utes for tradies, and that models already available in the Australian market are suitable for towing caravans, despite a fear campaign run throughout the 2019 election campaign.
In the lead up to the 2019 federal election, the Morrison government sought to scare voters over the Labor party’s support for electric vehicles, saying that Labor would dictate to Australians which cars they could drive and that the Morrison government would instead “save your ute”.
The Morrison government also claimed that the Labor party’s election platform included plans to “end the weekend”, by supporting electric vehicles that would not be able to tow a caravan or pull a trailer.
However, in response to ‘questions taken on notice’ by senator Simon Birmingham on behalf of federal energy minister Angus Taylor during a session of Senate Estimates held in March, the government has now conceded that its fear-mongering in the election campaign had no basis.

Yeah sure it was a beat up.
VerdictTesla Model X 2019 review: Long Range tow test
Has Tesla solved range anxiety AND built a car you can tow a caravan with?
After nearly 700km of testing with both cars, it’s fair to say that the Tesla is indeed a capable tow vehicle, provided you keep the distances relatively short and plan around charge station locations.
Needed to recharge after 162 Km.
"Super" recharger ( good luck finding lots of these around ) took an hour and 20 minutes.
Drive for 2 hours 23, charge for 1 hour 20. Happy holidays electric flogs.
Here is a list of possible destinations.
Supercharger | Tesla
Supercharger keeps you charged when you’re away from home. With a reliable global network, you can go anywhere and conveniently fast charge. Simply plug in, charge and go.www.tesla.com
You should be able to get 300km a day.
Don't even think about going off the beaten track.

Cliff notes
Dept of Ag is aware there are sick crew members on board, yet still lets them dock in Freo.
Dept of Ag doesnt tell Freo ports who get informed by word of mouth there are crew members with Covid 19 on there.
School halls was a great initiative
Ss, all fair points.
I'm assuming he couldn't get the numbers for his union buster bill.This.
I will happily admit I am a cynic when it comes to this government but this STINKS.
Think of this, in pretty much precisely 4 months time Jobseeker gos back to Newstart and Jobkeeper ends. Unemployment will be circa 20% (probably 30-40% if it was measured properly).
Good strong bargaining position for workers
Scotty from marketing would want to be very careful how much he bites off here. Last time a prime minister overreached massively on industrial relations he lost his seat the very next election.
