Elizabeth Foulger, executive director of Integrity Services at the CCC, told the inquiry that these two matters have been referred back to Queensland police to deal with, subject to a public interest review.

Gas producers warned to prove they have domestic supplies for next year, or face 'gas trigger' restrictionsGas producers are told to prove there will be enough supply for the domestic market next year, or face the threat of export restrictions.
