There is an unfortunate alternative explanation to Mr. Buckley ‘s apparent reticence in bringing his claims before a court.

That is that CASA has no case to answer. I once invested a lot of time and money in supporting an unrelated person who wove a great story about her terrible treatment at the hands of the government. Unfortunately for her supporters she had left out one salient little fact……

P. S. Glen and some of his supporters are still dreaming of finding something ( a silver bullet?) via the use of Freedom of Information requests. This is pointless.

Once you become a “person of interest” to CASA or any other Government entity an invisible group of bureaucrats are activated; they are like a bunch of secret elves, hard working, dedicated and thorough. They work for the Minister, Board and chief executive.

They will start at the bottom and collect every file, every document and every cross referenced communication involving the person and/or organisation of interest and remove them to safe controlled storage away from prying eyes. Access is tightly controllled.

Once that is completed, the chances of some lazy bureaucrat accidentally revealing something of use to you are almost zero. Furthermore, by asking, you are telegraphing your punches.

How do I know this? The file removal is legal. The elves leave a receipt and phone number. Ask for the file and you will quickly find yourself on the mat explaining exactly why you want the file together with an instruction on how you are to submit anything to the chief elf before you dare communicate it to anyone.

Glen, they have every document you ever gave to CASA, from your ab initio training exams onwards. They are all cross referenced and waiting to be used against you.

Get a lawyer.
