It's just extraordinary. I can't be more specific. Justice North went on to say this: that when the ABCC 'use public resources to bring the bar down to this level, it really calls into question the exercise of the discretion to proceed'. That is what they had to say at that time. The Federal Court has also dismissed the ABCC for its prosecutions, labelling them 'unnecessarily inflammatory' and 'conducted as a blood sport'. That's what the Federal Court have had to say about these actions that the member raised, and I thank her very much for her question.
