Response by Mr Matthew Joyce to remarks made by the Member for Fadden

On 11 October 2012, the Member for Fadden, Mr Stuart Robert MP, made a speech in the House of Representatives concerning the role of Sunland Group Limited (Sunland) in a land transaction in Dubai in 2007, a transaction which is the subject of both an Australian civil proceeding and a criminal proceeding in Dubai involving me.

The speech by Mr Robert MP contains a number of statements that are misleading, inaccurate and contrary to the findings made in a judgment handed down in the Supreme Court of Victoria.

I reject the specific statements that Mr Robert made in relation to me.
