In the compelling four-minute video below, I delve into a crucial legal document called "The COT' Strategy." This meticulously crafted document was developed by Telstra's lawyers from the prominent law firm Freehills, Hollingdale & Page (refer to Prologue Evidence File 1-A to 1-C). Its primary objective was to target four specific businesses, including mine, to obstruct our access to essential Freedom of Information (FOI) documents. By invoking the concept of legal professional privilege, the lawyers aimed to create a barrier that would significantly impede my ability to effectively demonstrate the ongoing telephone faults adversely impacting my business operations.

 

 

In addition to the information in the video, you will encounter the official page 5169 in the SENATE official Hansard – Parliament of Australia from 24 June 1997. This record holds particular significance because it includes testimony from a whistleblower within Telstra. During a Senate Committee hearing, this individual spoke under oath and disclosed that Telstra had actively instructed him to take steps to prevent the COT Cases—of which I was a participant—from substantiating our arbitration claims against the company. This shocking revelation underscores the lengths to which Telstra was willing to go to undermine our pursuit of justice and fair resolution, revealing a pattern of obstruction designed to protect their interests at the expense of fair arbitration.

‘Absent Justice’

My decision to write this book stems from the complex nature of our narrative and the wide range of exhibits that required careful organization and duplication. This strategic choice allows readers to recognize the various crimes committed against the COT Cases by numerous entities, including public officials and regulatory agencies. This storytelling approach is essential in illustrating the extensive criminality that thrived within the government-sanctioned arbitrations under the International Arbitration Act.

Until the late 1990s, the Australian government-owned Australia's telephone network and the communications carrier Telecom (now privatized and known as Telstra). Telecom monopolised communications and allowed the network to fall into disrepair. Instead of addressing our severely deficient telephone services as part of the government-endorsed arbitration process—which became an uneven battle we could never win—these issues were never resolved, despite the hundreds of thousands of dollars it cost claimants to pursue their cases against this government-owned asset.

“…the very large number of persons that had been forced into an arbitration process and have been obliged to settle as a result of the sheer weight that Telstra has brought to bear on them as a consequence where they have faced financial ruin if they did not settle…”

Senator Carr

“Only I know from personal experience that your story is true, otherwise I would find it difficult to believe. I was amazed and impressed with the thorough, detailed work you have done in your efforts to find justice”

Sister Burke

“A number of people seem to be experiencing some or all of the problems which you have outlined to me. …

“I trust that your meeting tomorrow with Senators Alston and Boswell is a profitable one.”

Hon David Hawker MP

“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.”

Cathy Lindsey

“…your persistence to bring about improvements to Telecom’s country services. I regret that it was at such a high personal cost.”

The Hon David Hawker MP

“Only I know from personal experience that your story is true, otherwise I would find it difficult to believe. I was amazed and impressed with the thorough, detailed work you have done in your efforts to find justice”
