CANCELLED: Senator Rex Patrick in Conversation with Bernard Collaery

*This event has been indefinitely postponed. It will not go ahead on Monday 16 March*

In May 2018 Bernard Collaery, a former Attorney-General of the Australian Capital Territory and long-term legal counsel to the government of East Timor, was charged by the Australian Commonwealth Director of Public Prosecutions with conspiracy to breach the Intelligence Services Act 2001. He was forbidden from talking about the charges against him, but under parliamentary privilege independent MP Andrew Wilkie revealed what has since been described as 'Australian politics' biggest scandal'.

We are delighted to have the author in conversation with Senator Rex Patrick. Please arrive at 6PM for a 6.30PM start. This event is free and is presented by Australia East Timor Friendship Association SA Inc., Melbourne University Publishing, Imprints Booksellers and The Australian Institute of International Affairs SA Branch.
