I heard this on the ABC radio and was concerned about it. 

I am assured by some of our staff here, including Shearwater specialists,
that the there arre so meany fact errors in the report that it is highly
doubtful. I could only quote from the radio, can anyone supply a copy of the
newspaper reports and I will collate a proper response from the RAOU? 

My concern is that if we allow poor science to be quoted (egaccording to
HANZAB the diet quoted is all wrong) then we are vunerable to criticism from
those who have vested interests in sitting on their hands as our environment
suffers.
