Ann: Response to Media Article, page-63

Sensitive inside info should never make it outside the Boardroom until announced to the ASX. Samso apparently may have been given the scoop and his published interview in advance of the deal being signed and then published it once the other mob had done so, it's not the first time he's had to take something down after publication though. It seems, in my opinion, that sensitive info was in outsiders posession prematurely. Personally happy I haven't traded BSX over the last few days, there may be scrutiny over who had access to this inside info. Or maybe not, might just look bad because of communication difficlties. Negotiate and sign the deal, then announce to the ASX, then do the interview sounds like the proper order of things. The risk isn't worth doing it in any other order IMO. Even if it's just a perception issue.
