On Saturday the 10th July 2010 we posted part one of an interview with Deputy Trevor Pitman on the subject of the now infamous Wiltshire Report. In that posting we said we would be looking at, in part two “just what is the point of this cherry picked report?”.
Well here we are a month later and the interview with Deputy Pitman and more importantly the questions asked in the interview are as relevant today as they were a month ago.
Just what was Home Affairs Minister, Senator Ian Le Marquand’s motives behind giving the media a copy of the heavily redacted report, while members of our parliament were being refused a copy? Why would a former Magistrate and now Home Affairs Minister put into the public domain, the prosecution case and not the defence? Why did he deny the former Chief Officer a fair trial?
Has Senator Le Marquand lost all recognition of “natural justice?”
