The Dutton saga in Cambodia is becoming comedy gold. http://www.smh.com.au/world/plan-to-resettle-refugees-in-cambodia-collapses-20150830-gjavdv.html quote:Australia's $55 million operation to resettle hundreds of refugees from the tiny Pacific island of Nauru to Cambodia appears to have collapsed in a diplomatic embarrassment for the Abbott Government. The rest of the article is worth a read too.

There is no reason to think that the fair-minded observer might apprehend that my intention in agreeing to give the address was to raise funds or assist in raising funds or gathering support for the Liberal Party. Accordingly, there is no rational basis to conclude that a fair-minded observer might apprehend any predisposition on my part against the Labor Party.

oTHi posted:How on earth can the government justify selecting the tender which is significantly more expensive? Isn't that literally the whole point of the tendering process? Not only is Transfield unspeakably awful, everything about the process is corrupt, apparently. No, because the tendering process isn't purely about saving money. The government says 'we want these outcomes', and it it up to private enterprise to come up with a proposal that best meets the outcomes. If the government dictates how to solve a problem, then there is no room for a business to come up with an 'innovative' solution that is even better then what the government is requesting. The best solution isn't necessarily the cheapest. However if there are a bunch of equally good solutions, then money could be the determining factor. In this case I'd imagine that Transfield meets one of their outcomes better then the rest and that the government is willing to pay a premium for it. For example, if Transfield had a better plan for maintaining operational security.

Dutton's excuse for operation border farce: Yes, my office got the e-mail, but no-one read them. Heydon's excuse for not reading an e-mail: I don't even have a computer no wonder the Libs don't think of the NBN as a priority.

Huh. This leak would have had to have come from the media ops folks within the immigration department. Not too surprising since they're getting actively rolled by their own Minister, but still it's unusual.

I said that if he accepts the common law test for apprehended bias is applicable he would have to go, because it is a low threshold. What he's done is a classic exercise in legal technicality, relying on the fact of a "fair minded informed observer," when most people's perceptions are based on other than rational considerations of all the facts. I read the reasons and there is little to fault with the logic. Heydon is a fine black letter lawyer, AND he still managed to get his shots in (Kirby reference, calling Gillard and Shorten to testify) E: also used what were probably off the cuff remarks by Counsel against them, to devastating effect on said arguments Negligent fucked around with this message at 08:45 on Aug 31, 2015 |
