BERNIE BANTON - AND SO IT GOE SON
Following on from my post yesterday about Australian asbestos victim Bernie Banton, today I read that James Hardie Industries chief executive Louis Gries says Bernie's battle is not with the company but with the asbestos injuries compensation fund (AICF) and insurer Allianz Australia.
Mr Gries went on to say "I'm not sure if everybody is aware that we don't manage the fund." He went on to say, "I have met Bernie once. Obviously it doesn't make me feel good when someone is that ill."
