[whats-in-a-sentence]

The team working on the wording of the bank's statement gathered in Stuart Fowler's office and included representatives from Allen Allen & Hemsley as well as Westpac's Dunne and his assistant Barbara Filipowski. The group formulated a series of advertisements headed 'Westpac Confidential Letters – the facts':

Westpac is dismayed that certain parties have ignored the rulings of the courts with regard to the Westpac Confidential Letters.

Westpac is concerned that certain individuals approach the administration of justice as a game in which they use their best endeavours to evade the rulings of the courts.

The reading of the documents in the South Australian Legislative Council we believe is a clear breach of a fundamental parliamentary convention and has jeopardised several principles which are cornerstones of our society.

Westpac is also disappointed that Senator McLean appears to have ignored the spirit of the ruling by the President of the Senate by distributing the documents outside the Senate chamber . . .

Westpac is unable to reveal or comment in any detail on the confidential letters since they remain the central issue in a number of legal cases, both recent and long-standing, before the courts . . .

But Westpac wishes to have the public record set straight about the circumstances in which the letters were written.

The letters in question are letters of advice sought by the bank from its external solicitors in November and December 1987. They relate to the management by Partnership Pacific Ltd (PPL) of foreign currency exposures for a small number of clients . . .

There is no doubt that the letters contain opinions critical of the way in which certain activities of PPL were conducted . . . PPL has now been merged into the back.

The legal position which the bank has taken in relation to these two letters has been endorsed by the courts. It is very important to note that Westpac in each of its actions against:

—John Fairfax Group Limited (receivers & managers appointed), David Syme & Co Ltd (receivers & managers appointed) and Anne Lampe

—the Australian Broadcasting Corporation

—Federal Capital Press of Australia Ltd, publishers of the Canberra Times

—Naji Halabi and Others

has been granted injunctions restraining the disclosure of the contents of the two letters.

In the proceedings Westpac has brought against Naji Halabi and five other members of his family, the judge ordered all defendants to detail the circumstances under which copies of the letters came into their hands. Mr Naji Halabi swore an affidavit in which he claimed that he could not comply with that part of the Court's order because to do so may tend to incriminate him. In the course of argument in Court Mr Halabi's counsel handed up to the judge a document listing a number of criminal offences for which his client could potentially be liable, as the bases for declining to provide the information required by the judge's order . . .

One of the constrains placed upon the bank and its advisors is that it has not been free to comment extensively on all relevant matters surrounding events of the past month because of the pending criminal and civil trials set down for April and June . . . The bank is unwilling to take any step (by public comment or otherwise) which might be prejudicial to a fair trial . . .

The bank has on five separate occasions issued press releases to explain why it was taking the court action it has pursued. The bank's press releases have been ignored entirely or in large measure by the media, although some journalists and others appear to have no hesitation in making use of documents obviously obtained unlawfully . . . a quantity of bank documents have been stolen. They have been copied and distributed in such a way as to cause the bank maximum embarrassment . . . regardless of the quite responsible criticism levelled at the bank in the media Westpac has not succumbed to nor will it ever succumb to threats to pervert the course of justice. That is the larger issue confronting the bank.

i feel like percy is the person that people bring with them when they need to go somewhere or do something potentially dangerous. or more realistically, he’s the one who people’s loved ones tell them to take with. it just makes people feel better knowing percy is there. you know what i mean?

sally has a meeting with someone who sounds a bit weird (and paul can’t go)? paul tells her to bring percy.

paul needs to go to a really sketchy part of town? sally asks him to bring percy

piper got a weird anonymous note and needs to go meet them at a location? annabeth tells her to bring percy

leo has to go get some magic machine part from a really shady dealer? piper tells him to bring percy

frank has to go on an unofficial quest to investigate some shady legion history, and hazel has to stay with camp? hazel tells him to bring percy

and it’s NOT because any of these people can’t take care of themselves. they are all strong and brave and badass, and can handle anything. but for one, percy is intimidating as hell. his “wolf stare” sends literal gangs running the other way. you can avoid conflict before it even happens, because no one is messing with percy. and second, percy just makes you feel safe. his presence is comforting. not only has he been through all the demigod-hero-world-saving shit, and is powerful as hell, but he also grew up in new york city. he can handle pretty much any situation. plus he’s super sweet and funny, and you can always count on him to make you laugh and decrease your anxiety. and he’s always got your back. he takes care of the people he loves.

he’s just the best company. for so many reasons.

when in doubt, bring percy
