20 May 2016: Sports writer Jon Pierik with The Age writes: Independent senator John Madigan has lodged a Freedom of Information request. "The Australian Government Solicitor provided that advice to Mr McDevitt in confidence. What he then did with it was inconsistent with keeping that confidence," Madigan said on Friday. "By disclosing the gist and substance as well as the supposed conclusions of it to a senate committee, Mr McDevitt has made the public at large privy to that advice. He has waived his own right to the exclusivity of client legal privilege over that advice". "It is now in the public interest that the full advice be disclosed because, quite frankly, it is highly improbable that any government solicitor would advise a Commonwealth official that compliance with an order of senate could in any way be a 'voluntary disclosure'." "The Australian Government Solicitor is not in the habit of holding parliament in contempt." This search for the truth is all based on the feeling that something is just not right when the Court for Arbitration for Sport (CAS) decision appears manifestly untroubled in finding all the players guilty, despite lingering, material confusion as to how that conclusion was reached.
