National awaits SFO report on Tamihere
National
Party Leader Don Brash is interested in seeing the Serious
Fraud Office Report on John Tamihere following the release
today of the Douglas White QC report ordered by Helen
Clark.
"It's obviously a very serious matter when the
honesty of a cabinet minister is called into question.
"But in National's view, Helen Clark deliberately gave
Douglas White QC insufficient power to call witnesses and
it's for that reason we will wait and see whether the
Serious Fraud Office comes to the same conclusions," says Dr
Brash.
