I think she might invite some respected and independent business leaders, such as the future fund boss and the government's infrastructure investment advisor and some tax specialists for a private meeting to get some advice how to redesign the RSPT to make it workable to satisfy both the government and the mining industry.
Such people are able to suggest the best way forward, more than both the government people and those miners because they have not very emotionally involved in the previous negotiations, or the Henry Review.
Even to get some fresh views would be important to the government.
Further, it can give the government a way to make significant changes without being seen as a backdown under the pressures from miners.
