The request for removal has supposedly come through from BCL legal department. Although I don't agree with what is going on, they have asked us to ensure removal of the posts from the public eye - and I am trying to do this to the extent of my abilities.
Well, I guess if they want to serve a court order on the University of Waikato, they might be able to get it removed. Maybe. That's assuming they can find a judge who would take their side - they're an SOE, and thus governed by all kinds of legislation that doesn't apply to mere private enterprises, not least of which is the NZ Bill of Rights Act. As things stand currently, the list administrators have taken the position that posts will not be removed from the archives. I don't see why this situation should be treated any differently. BCL have every right to reply to this forum if they want the record corrected. -- Matthew Poole "Don't use force. Get a bigger hammer."
