CORRUPTION AND CRIME COMMISSION - COMMENTS OF MEMBER FOR RIVERTON 3. Mr T. BUSWELL to the Premier: I refer to comments from the member for Riverton, the former Minister for the Environment, when he said - The Premier has his interpretation of the matter wrong. The CCC has either wilfully withheld information that would have clarified the supposition that it was putting in its hearings, or it’s incompetent. In light of these comments, can the Premier guarantee that the Corruption and Crime Commission will be allowed to continue to operate in an open and accountable manner? Mr A.J. CARPENTER
