Tibaldi accused of ‘disregard for the truth’

The Queensland flood inquiry will continue this morning after yesterday’s damaging claims that Wivenhoe Dam engineer John Tibaldi showed a ‘disregard for the truth’ when explaining his actions in the days before the Brisbane floods.

Tibaldi, who broke down in court yesterday, is expected to return to the witness box this morning to explain his team's water release strategies before last year's devastating floods.

Today is the second day of nine additional days of hearings, headed by Court of Appeal judge Catherine Holmes.
