Corrupt OZschwitz directors of government-run power companies refuse to appear before a parliamentary inquiry

DIRECTORS of government-run power companies who resigned last month have refused to appear before a parliamentary inquiry into the sale of power industry assets, casting doubt on the inquiry's success.

The lack of parliamentary privilege in the proceedings has been cited as a reason for some of the directors' decision not to attend. Directors may be summonsed to appear before the inquiry, or some hearings may be held behind closed doors.

Amid mounting public pressure last week the Premier, Kristina Keneally, reversed her public opposition and decided to allow a parliamentary inquiry into the sale of government-owned electricity assets to proceed, saying both she and the Treasurer, Eric Roozendaal, would attend hearings.

It emerged yesterday that none of the directors who resigned from the board of Eraring Energy will attend the inquiry, and directors of Delta Electricity are also not expected to turn up.
