The finalisation of the Cole Inquiry has been stalled by AWB's success in having the availability of more than 1200 documents decided by the Federal Court rather than Commissioner Cole.
On 18 July, Justice Young ordered that Commissioner Cole not require production of any documents over which AWB claimed privilege.
The dispute is to head to a trial, with a date yet to be fixed.
UPDATE: The trial will commence on Monday 7 August 2006 for an estimated 5 days.
