Avenues to allow book's release being explored
National Party Leader Don Brash has confirmed that he has this morning had an initial brief telephone conversation with
his legal counsel, Brendan Brown QC, who is currently in Sydney.
"As I've said earlier, I want to see the book by Nicky Hager published so that the claims can be exposed to daylight.
"On the strength of the initial discussion with Mr Brown, I am confident that there are ways in which the book can be
released, even in the next few days. These are being actively explored.
"I will be making a further statement on this matter tomorrow once I have had the opportunity for a more substantive
discussion with Mr Brown.
"I will not be making any further statement on this matter today."
