Hon Peter Foss’s search and mission on the Lewandowski issue reminds me of a saying: he is like a sight-challenged man in a darkened room looking for a black cat that is not there. Nonetheless, one day he might find something. I listened very carefully to Hon Peter Foss’s erudite speech about the matter. However, I must have missed something along the way, because I was waiting for him to make a point. I certainly became aware of the details of the issue when I read an article in The West Australian on a date that I cannot recall. I recall that the Attorney General mentioned something in Cabinet, but I think that was after the article had been published. I cannot be certain.
(b) the remaining documents?
