BBC breached ethics, claims Chief Minister

THE Chief Minister has accused the BBC of breaching one its ‘basic ethics’ by broadcasting comments he made during a private exchange with Senator Stuart Syvret.

Senator Frank Walker told the States yesterday that he was considering making a formal complaint.
