An interesting interview on Jones & Co a short time ago ( Alan Jones, Mark Latham)
They interviewed one of the QUT students who was a respondent in this disgraceful witch hunt, Calum Thwaits , along with their counsel Tony Morris QC. Morris is the one who made the scathing indictment of Triggs. He said they are considering an action against Triggs for negligent misfeasance -that's an old tort which basically says a public official has been negligent in their duty and caused damage to someone.
The process is a complaint is made, the AHRC secretly confer with the claimant and their lawyers to get together a case, then the Act requires a compulsory conciliation conference to try to settle.
That is legal-speak for a legal shakedown that would do the CFMEU proud.
One interesting fact that emerged is that the 7 students were only notified they'd been secretly investigated 14 months after the complaint was made, and they were given only 3 days notice to attend a compulsory conference ..... well, some of them. Only 2 of the 7 turned up. Morris said a number were not given notice at all.
This is McCarthy ism. Accuse someone of being a racist then shake them down. Absolutely disgraceful.
