Clarification

On August 5, an article in WA Business News titled WA Inc link to PRL deal incorrectly stated that Kevin Edwards, a senior adviser to the Burke Government, had been fined $10,000 for his role in the collapse of Rothwells Ltd.

It is understood that the 1991 conviction of Mr Edwards, now a practising solicitor, was quashed on appeal to the High Court and he was acquitted at a subsequent retrial in 1993.
