Jennifer Single SC prosecuted in one of the first cases under the Defence Trade Controls Act, as well as a case brought by the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator after a truck, driven by a man who was sleep-deprived and under the drugs, collided with and killed four police officers – the company received an AU$2.3m fine and one of its directors a custodial sentence. Andrew Harding SC is instructed by ASIC on civil regulatory work. Henry El-Hague SC has notable expertise in environmental offences. Yaseen Shariff SC, as was, is now a judge of the Federal Court of Australia.
