Up-in-the-air...

Maybe someone can tell us whether that is an offence under the TSI Act

24 Offence to hinder etc. an investigation

(1) A person is guilty of an offence if:

(a) the person engages in conduct; and

(b) the person is reckless as to whether the conduct will adversely affect an investigation:

(i) that is being conducted at that time; or

(ii) that could be conducted at a later time into an immediately reportable matter; and

(c) the conduct has the result of adversely affecting such an investigation (whether or not the investigation had commenced at the time of the conduct); and

(d) the conduct is not authorised by the Chief Commissioner.

Penalty: Imprisonment for 12 months.

I guess the question would be whether the pressure placed to narrow the scope and downgrade that critical safety factor was authorised by Dolan.

Dolan is a fool
