Page "Jim Duffy (journalist)" Paragraph 9

On the basis of his studies of international heads of state, Duffy was one of six people ( including Sir Ellis Clarke, the former Governor-General and President of Trinidad and Tobago ) commissioned in 1993 by Australia's Republic Advisory Committee to prepare reports on international republican experiences — to appear as an appendix to the committee's main report.

His report, along with those of five others, was submitted as part of that larger report to the then Australian Prime Minister Paul Keating.
