Pulp and paper expert Dr Warwick Raverty, reached the “sad conclusion that Gunns is not a fit and proper company to build a pulp mill anywhere” in Tasmania (14 March 2007). That conclusion is supported by the record of statements in Is Gunns Ltd Reliable?
Its purpose is to help potential investors assess Gunns' competence to build and operate one of the largest pulp mills in the southern hemisphere. It illustrates the political, economic and project risks for investors in Gunns' proposal.
The statements have been collated by TAP Research from media reports, documentaries and publications from 2004 to the present and are hyperlink referenced for easy checking. It will be updated periodically as new evidence emerges.

Friends,
A nice concise summary of 4 years of lies, debauchery and subterfuge by Gunns Limited and the Tasmanian State Government! A great pity that it has brought so much bad press to the honourable profession of pulp and paper makers. Still as the old adage says, if you lie with dogs you are bound to catch fleas!
Fortunately the profession, almost to a man has remained steadfastly at arms length from this shameful episode. The FIRST DUTY of a scientist or engineer, particularly one paid from the public purse, must be remain ethical in his or her behaviour and in the utilisation of his or her skills, despite the pressures applied to him or her by his or her employer. Otherwise it is a very slippery slope back to Belsen, Dachau and Treblinka - particularly with people of the calibre of Dick Cheney as Vice President of the USA.
Regards,
Warwick Raverty
