"Liquidation was, as we are finding out, with the limited Govt protection offered the staff victims, the only real solution."
Why was liquidation the only real solution, when 3000 start up jobs would be saved by carrying forward into a new entity.
Potential jobs growth would see this figure increase significantly.
There is too much unwarranted negativity and personal baggage about this whole issue and people should get behind anything that creates employment within the Australian economy.
