Alan Smith’s book shows us corruption, fraud and deception perpetrated against fellow Australian citizens by the then government owned Telstra Corporation and the use of an 'arbitration confidentiality gag clause,' which is still being used in 2023 to cover up the many crimes committed by Telstra, the arbitrator and the arbitrators advisors during and after the arbitrations between 1993 and 1999 (see Chapter 1 - The collusion continues and Chapter 2 - Inaccurate and Incomplete.
This book is asking the government why are these crimes committed by Telstra being concealed under a gag clause?
All of the main events as quoted in this unbelievable true crime story are supported by copies of the original freedom of Information documents on this website absentjustice.com (see Absent Justice Book 2)
Without those documents, most people would really struggle to believe that public officials and their lawyers committed the illegal offences they did.
Using the acquired evidence that can be downloaded from absentjustice.com is possibly a world first.
ABSENT JUSTICE HAS IT ALL.

“I am writing in reference to your article in last Friday’s Herald-Sun (2nd April 1993) about phone difficulties experienced by businesses.
I wish to confirm that I have had problems trying to contact Cape Bridgewater Holiday Camp over the past 2 years.
I also experienced problems while trying to organise our family camp for September this year. On numerous occasions I have rung from both this business number 053 424 675 and also my home number and received no response – a dead line.
I rang around the end of February (1993) and twice was subjected to a piercing noise similar to a fax. I reported this incident to Telstra who got the same noise when testing.”
