I understand this morning that Glen Buckley is in hospital after a heart attack.I wonder if the behaviour of CASA may have been a contributing factor?
Thorn Bird is correct; “words matter”. I once had an object lesson to this effect dealing with a contract between our company and a somewhat colourful and high profile member of the orthodox jewish community. While everything was always legal, honest and honourable and we both completed the contract successfully with reputations intact, I received a year long, highly enjoyable education in what the wording of the contract really meant.
I am therefore sensitive to the way the regulations are crafted, especially the over use of nominatives like “sufficient”, “acceptable”, “appropriate”, “satisfied”, etc. that infest them. Each and every use of each of these words is an open invitation to bias, stupidity and even corruption.
