Correction to Reporting on ADFA Assault Claims

21 June 2011

Saturday’s Canberra Times article entitled ‘ADFA’s decade of sex claims’ has linked the information provided under Freedom of Information incorrectly with material in the recent Four Corners program. The author has ascribed an event which allegedly occurred amongst junior recruit sailors at HMAS Cerberus in Victoria in 1996 to ADFA cadets. This is not correct.
