Now, in addition to receiving that document, you say you also went to look at the annual report?---Yes. May I ask you to have a look at document 45?---Yes. Is that the annual report that you went to read after the conversation with Mr Dodson?---Yes, it is. Righto, could you continue then telling His Honour what you noted, if anything, in relation to each of the documents that you said you obtained, that is, the briefing paper and the annual report?---Well, I read the briefing paper first, then I read the annual report and I thought this is just unbelievable, that the minister is telling my boss,- in his own office, in the minister's office, in very colourful language that the situation is intolerable, that'the NLCs been 48/ld Hansen 104 P.J.
