Maurice Williamson has the final laugh, whats the Board up to, taxes and are we being challenged as an industry. The Boards annual report wasn't there now it is and we need you help to stamp out a problem in Christchurch.

I hope every practitioner that visits this site takes the time to read the annual report to see where their money is being used and whether the financials tell the same story as the prelude to it.

I've read part of the report and I'm shocked we have lost another 500 plus people from the industry this year.   Just as a side I saw this on the internet today about old Flip Flop Williamson.

A former senior Customs lawyer has said he was told to bury information that could embarrass the government, and he believes the order came from the Beehive.
Opposition parties are outraged and want an inquiry.
Curtis Gregorash quit his job last year after he was told to refuse OIA and Privacy Act requests about "sensitive" issues.
He told the New Zealand Herald the order came from Maurice Williamson, who was Customs minister at the time, through chief executive Carolyn Tremain to the director of legal services, Peter Taylor.
Mr Gregorash says he was told: "You don't release anything, I don't care what the OIA says."
The allegation has been rejected by Mr Williamson and Mr Taylor.


Honesty and integrity all the way.

I've got a feeling that John likes everyone (on his team) to have fun, so we will probably get someone new to have a turn at screwing us over

I hope both Williamson and Collins are consigned to the back, the very back benches.
