On 18
January 2006 at page 112, we published an article entitled 'At last, a
real chance to save the sport in SA'. The article was written by Boti
Nagy.
The article dealt with the steps
taken by Treasurer Mr Kevin Foley to require the Board of the
Basketball Association of South Australia to step aside and included
references to its chairman Di Campbell.
On that same day, Mr Nagy further discussed the article in an interview on a well known radio sports program.
We
accept that our, and Mr Nagy's, assertions about Ms Campbell and her
role in the financial circumstances of the Basketball Association, and
in particular our referring to the State Bank collapse, was wrong.
This
paper and Boti Nagy accept that Ms Campbell has always sought to act in
the best interests of the Association and apologise to Ms Campbell for
the hurt, harm and embarrassment our article and its repetition have
caused her.
