So the police have obviously coordinated with NBN Co the raid details so the NBN man would be available. Only a dummy would imagine NBN Co CEO/Manager would not have advised his boss (The Minister whoever that is) Lets get the NBN Co CEO/Manager/Special constable before the Senate!

'Labor has claimed parliamentary privilege on the documents that were seized at the Commonwealth parliamentary office and at the private home.'

I doubt that the staffer home would come under parliamentary privilege. The offices may, the content may not.

I doubt that the staffer home would come under legal professional privilege. The offices may, the content may not.

Crap!

Senior officers often work from home and are on call at all hours so are covered by their normal conditions.

Utegate (also known as the OzCar affair) refers to a 2009 controversy in Australian federal politics, revolving around allegations made by then Federal Leader of the Opposition and Liberal leader, Malcolm Turnbull, that the Prime Minister, Kevin Rudd, and/or the Treasurer, Wayne Swan, had acted improperly on behalf of a Queensland car dealer who was seeking financial assistance from a government agency called OzCar, and that they had misled Parliament. Central to this claim was evidence by Treasury official Godwin Grech before a Senate inquiry in June 2009 that a Prime Ministerial adviser had emailed him asking for preferential treatment for the dealer.

When the email's text became known, the Prime Minister labelled the email a forgery,

and a subsequent police investigation confirmed that the email was never sent. On 4 August 2009, Grech admitted to forging the email.[1]

So if it had not been reported on Grech's say so he would have been guilty of abetting the commission of a crime. it was best to be reported and proved wrong.

Nonsense, so you are saying only the documents in his office fall under that rule not if the documents are accessed when a staffer is working from home!

You are a fool no doubt!
