Dambuster
It was the AFP who didn't call the NSW Police.
VB followed the Airport porcedure which is call the AFP who call the Police. That argument is between them and nothing to do with
VB.
Contractors are allowed to be in Restricted areas with visitor passes as they are issued by the Airport Authority, same as the TWU reps are on the airport with the same passes. You would have to ban them also.
The staff are trained, thats how they realised it was a suspicious item. The trained and documented procedures were not followed.
WorkCover has asked for all staff to be re-trained with the same training course and material which is happenning although it was carried out only 2 months ago. The training is adequate otherwise they would have demanded it be changed. It is exactly the same as Qantas as it was developed by all airlines.
Remember this is the same media who reported it was an airline worker and the AFP said they had names of suspects from the airline then low and behold a confession from a 13 year old boy. All
VB ramp staff were under suspicion including management. I think they deserve an apology as does the TWU.
