Dear Colin (CASA Board Secretariat). Could you please ensure this correspondence be forwarded to Mr. Mathews at the soonest opportunity? Could I be advised when that has occurred? I do appreciate that the Commonwealth Onmbusdan is investigating this matter, and CASA has used this as a reason to ignore my previous requests. This request is independent of the Ombudsman Investigation but will form part of my submission to the Senate Inquiry. I intend to submit that within 24 hours so request a prompt response.

Dear Mr Matthews,

I anticipate having my submission to the current Senate Inquiry submitted within the next 24 hours.

In that submission, I will be making substantive allegations against some members of CASAs Management. The allegations are substantive, well supported, and truthful. I have strong industry support. As you are aware I am highly appreciative of Senator Mccdonalds, well intentioned involvement in this matter, and have included her amongst the recipients. These matters do have the potential to negatively impact on aviation safety. As these personnel opertae at the most senior levels these matters affect aviation safety nationally.

The conduct of these CASA personnel was vindictive and vexatious, and I allege unlawful.

The detriment caused by their conduct is significant, as you are fully aware.

Over the last two years, I have made multiple requests to meet with any two members of the Board. You have decided not to facilitate that request.

You did faciliate a meeting with yourself and the CASA Region Manager, which was not what I had requested.

Interestingly I note, that it was that very same CASA employee at that meeting that subsequently sent an email to my then Employer, that my continuing position was "[i]untenable, based on comments i was making publicly."[/i]

Prior to making my submission, in 24 hours I would like to ask you again.

Am I able to meet with any two Members of the CASA Board for 2 hours? CASA would be welcome to have any other attendees that they felt necessary, including those I have made allegations against. I will attend with only one other person, and that person will not be a lawyer.

Could I respectfully request that you consult with your fellow Board Members, and advise me of the Board decision?

I appreciate that Mr. Carmody the CEO and DAS, of CASA, also holds a Board position.

You will appreciate my preference that Mr. Carmody, not be involved in decision making regarding facilitating a meeting. That could be seen to damage the integrity of the request.

I look forward to your response at the soonest practical opportunity, as it will clearly demonstrate intent and Board integrity, which will be relevant to my submission


Respectfully, Glen Buckley

And the reply:

CASA Chair of the Board responds to post 1274

Dear Mr Buckley

I refer to your latest correspondence of 2 November 2020 addressed to Mr Mathews, Chair of the CASA Board.

As there is no new information provided, CASA is satisfied that your request falls within the allegations made to the Commonwealth Ombudsman, noting the review is currently underway. The outcome of the review will inform next steps.

Yours sincerely

Colin McLachlan

Hmm...well I guess no surprises there, verdict? The current board needs to go, otherwise the status quo will remain - :

Addendum: CASA released FOI docs.
