Cougar has launched their Supreme Court proceedings against DERM officials and the Qld Government and is pressing the point quite clearly in ASX and press releases that Cougar is fighting back.
So, where are all the vocal former players, the one's who are on record with comments and/or views and/or opinions and/or findings about Cougar? What are they doing now and what might their views be?
How did press surrounding Cougar's Kingaroy UCG operation and its shutdown affect their professional and/or community standing and careers?
How might a positive legal outcome for Cougar affect these people's professional and community standing and careers?
How might these people feel if in the cold light of day it becomes clear that their views and vocal comments at the time were just plain wrong?
For starters, there are:
DERM Officials ... well we know the current circumstances of three senior officers
Qld Govt Officials
Anna Bligh, Premier Stephen Robertson, Minister for Energy and Water Utilities Dorothy Pratt, Independent Member for Nanango Kate Jones, (former?) Minister for the Environment
Independent Scientific Panel
Professor C.J. Moran Director, Sustainable Minerals Institute, The University of Qld Emeritus Professor C. Cuff, Principal, C&R Consulting Professor J. da Costa, School of Chemical Engineering, The University of Qld
Federal Govt Officials
Larissa Green, Qld's first Greens Senator, former environmental lawyer
Local Govt Officials
David Carter, Mayor of South Burnett
Kingaroy Concerned Citizens Group
Gary Tessman, Chairperson John Dalton, Secretary
Friends of the Earth
Drew Hutton, FoE Spokesperson, Greens candidate (unsuccessful), founder of Lock the Gate
Kingaroy Resident
Damien O'Sullivan, farmer
A word of warning, please do not compromise Cougar, HotCopper or yourself with any potentially defamatory comments ... keep it factual ... the Cougar case is potentially far reaching and has a long way to run imo.
