Tribunal has thousands of documents to read

MORE than 20 land rezoning decisions and 10 other matters of public concern are being probed by the Flood Tribunal which resumed hearings yesterday, with tens of thousands of fresh documents to examine.

Tribunal lawyers revealed they received 631 new files containing an estimated 90,000 pages in the last week alone on foot of court orders, and that files continued to come in on a daily basis and would probably raise additional matters for investigation.

They also said former government press officer and lobbyist Frank Dunlop had made a considerable number of allegations, not all of which had been flagged, as some were still the subject of ongoing inquiry.
