Testing the nerve of Gunns

The Tasmanian timber company Gunns bluffed its State Government into abandoning an independent public enquiry into the environmental impacts of its planned pulp mill on the grounds that the cost of waiting for the completion of the process was too great. So were they bluffing? Richard Farmer writes.

Gunns may face November start date after all

The delays that Gunns so vigorously objected to back in March may have been unavoidable after all, writes Thomas Hunter.
