Where there is smoke there is usually fire. The link to an article i put below a bit raises a few questions but first there is word out of Wagga that casa did a vist to rex late last year and found a lot of problems and gave rex a number of non compliances but rex complained about them and casa withdrew them all. Anyone know if thats true.

So in this news story John Sparp is saying casa did 5 extensive audits on rex since early last year. He also says casa on 22 May sent rex a letter saying casa has no safety issues with rex. There has to be more going on here, since when does casa do 5 audits in a year or so and why would casa take the step to send a letter to rex like that. There must have been something going on for a while here.
5 audits, yes thats 5 and then a letter telling rex casa has no problem with them. Back to the rumour of casa issuing notices and then withdrawing them. This just doesn't add up. Something doesn't smell right here.
Now the ALAEA accuses casa of leaking the story to the media. This isn't making sense.
Theres another post here about casa inspections of foreign AMO which sounds more like issues inside casa. Smells like there is a lot more going on here than just accusations of shoddy maintenance at rex.
Anyone else confused.
