Ellis case
Letter to the Editor
by N M Gillespie (Bishopdale,
July 17)
I hope Phil Goff finds time to read Chris Trotter's open letter (July 11). I
have cause to wonder if he has even heard of the Arthur Alan Thomas case, the
book and writings about it, followed by (Sir) Robert Muldoon's reaction to what
he read.
Concerning the Civic Childcare Centre case, I have a letter from the Minister,
dated
In the same letter from last year, Goff admits he had earlier "incorrectly
stated that Sir Thomas Eichelbaum had talked to Peter Ellis" during the
ministerial inquiry. Yet in The Press (June 19) he repeats what he has already
admitted was a mistake. The Minister's blinkered attitude is deplorable and
seems to border on desperation.
