FORMER University of Tasmania chancellor Damian Bugg will chair the State Government's Bushfire Recovery Taskforce.
Premier Lara Giddings said she approached the former Commonwealth and Tasmanian director of public prosecutions to chair the group that would be solely focused on the job of rebuilding Tasmania's bushfire-hit communities.
"The job of this taskforce is critical to rebuilding our stricken communities," she said in a statement today.
"The devastation we have witnessed in the past week is plain for everyone to see -- the toll it has taken on communities is even more so.
"But we will leave no stone unturned in helping these areas to recover, and this taskforce will have the responsibility for that.
Mr Bugg, QC, will be joined by Blundstone's CEO Steve Gunn, Local Government Association of Tasmania president and West Tamar Mayor Barry Easther, Red Cross state director Ian Burke, Tasmanian Farmers and Graziers CEO Jan Davis, Tasmania Police Commissioner Darren Hine, and Department of Premier and Cabinet secretary Rhys Edwards.
Senior public servant Michael Stevens has been appointed as Bushfire Recovery Co-ordinator.
Ms Giddings said the taskforce would not act as a formal inquiry into the bushfires.
An inquiry is expected, however, once the job of fighting the latest fires in completed.
Mr Bugg said he would be seeking advice from people in the ACT and Victoria to help determine the best way to tackle the large task ahead of the new group.
