I refer to the police investigation into the finance broking activities of the minister’s friend and business partner, Leon Jamieson, and ask - (1) When precisely did the minister first become aware of concerns about Mr Jamieson’s finance broking activities? (2) What action did the minister take at the time? (3) Was the minister’s work with Mr Jamieson as McLauchlan’s trustee pro bono or paid? Mr PRINCE
AnswerView source ↗
(1)-(3) The answer to the last question is, pro bono. Mr McGinty: From the beginning? Mr PRINCE: Possibly when I was still in legal practice up until the end of 1992 a fee may have been raised by the firm. I do not recall - I do not know - but certainly not since then. Mr McGinty: I suspect there was. Dr Gallop: So you are allowed not to recall but other people are not. Mr PRINCE: No. I would have to ask the firm for its - Mr McGinty: Your law firm would have been paid as trustee. That is almost beyond doubt, surely. Mr PRINCE: I would have to ask the firm. I have no idea. Mr McGinty: Will you do that? Mr PRINCE: Okay. There has not been a fee since early 1993. When did I first know? When there was an announcement in the newspaper in Albany that Jamieson had been dismissed as the manager of Albany Finance Ltd, I contacted a director of the company and asked what it was all about. I then contacted Jamieson by phone. He came to me and told me. Subsequently, he gave me details of what he had done with a certain amount of money that belongs to that estate, and I have since received some hard copy of the detail of that from the chartered accountant who is his controlling trustee in bankruptcy. On Friday two weeks ago when I saw Mr Anderson, the controlling trustee in bankruptcy, and he told me what he understood Jamieson had been doing, I made a complaint to the police about it. Dr Gallop: When? Mr PRINCE: Friday, two weeks ago.
