Singapore Power's Australian unit faces new Victorian bushfire claims

The Sydney Morning Herald, 7 Aug 2012
THE Victorian electricity company SP AusNet faces another class action over its role in the state's Black Saturday bushfires.
The law firm Maurice Blackburn said it would launch a class action against SP AusNet and other parties on behalf of the victims of the Murrindindi bushfire that killed 40 people and destroyed 538 houses on February 7, 2009.
The proposed class action, which is expected to be launched as soon as today, follows a sharemarket announcement by SP AusNet that a Victoria Police report to the state coroner had found that the company's electricity assets were likely to blame for the Murrindindi fire. Full story
