6 Cited on pages 252–3; the original source is Australian Parliamentary Debates (Hansard), House of Representatives (15 March 1946, p. 6). The context, in Dr. Evatt's speech, is shown more completely by the contiguous sentences: ‘Some of the worst cases that have come before me concerned men who had appeared before a tribunal and did not know even when the case had been completed what had been alleged against them. There have been instances of a man having said to a tribunal “I should like to know what there is against me”, to which the chairman replied: “We are not allowed to say what it is”. Everybody has been at cross purposes. Reading the documents, one has a feeling of utter despair at the lack of not only humanity, but also common sense’ (Evatt, Australian Parliamentary Debates, House of Representatives, 15 March 1946). Read in its entirety, Dr. Evatt's speech is remarkably impressive.
