The Persona Tribunal
Original Statement of Professor Michael Andersen
Redacted Statement of Professor Michael Andersen
On 14 April 2010, Professor Michael Andersen (former principal of Andersen Management International) confirmed his willingness to attend to give evidence to the Moriarty Tribunal. He also provided a signed witness statement setting out his evidence before the Tribunal. Some 6 months later (and just before Professor Andersen was due to begin giving his evidence in Dublin) the Moriarty Tribunal circulated a significantly redacted / edited version of Professor Andersen’s statement for use at the public sittings. The Moriarty Tribunal was trying desperately to conceal large tracts of Professor Andersen’s intended evidence. Once again, the Moriarty Tribunal was engaged in concealment.
Full copies of both the original statement as signed by Professor Andersen and the version unilaterally redacted by the Moriarty Tribunal can be accessed via the links on this page.
This sinister interference with Professor Andersen’s statement and the familiar attempt to censor and conceal what Professor Andersen wishes to say in his evidence about the Moriarty Tribunal’s inquiries into the second mobile phone licence process is very obvious when one considers the contents of the paragraphs as redacted by the Moriarty Tribunal. It is all about chronic bias on the part of the Moriarty Tribunal and its slavish devotion to the Persona agenda.
The full story of the Moriarty Tribunal’s efforts since 2001 to promote the Persona agenda and to somehow prove that Esat Digifone was not the deserving winner of the second mobile phone licence competition creates the true context of these recent efforts to conceal / redact evidence. This is the story of the Persona Tribunal.
