Former Australian Institute of Company directors chairman Michael Smith will succeed Russ Withers as chairman of convenience store group 7-Eleven. Withers and CEO Warren Wilmot resigned on 30 September 2015. Smith believes that the problem of wage fraud is more far-reaching than just at 7-Eleven, and he favours an amnesty for international students who have been caught up in the scandal. He also suggests that visa rules could be changed to allow them to work for more than 20 hours a week.
