'This company just does not get it - they are rewarding unethical behaviour with riches beyond the dreams of the people whose lives have been and will be destroyed by asbestos.'
'If the company had any regard for the victims of this elaborate scam, they would put these millions into the compensation fund rather than into the pockets of those responsible for this sorry affair.'
He was backed by Australian Manufacturing Workers Union (AMWU) NSW secretary Paul Bastian who said the payment was an affront to people who had contracted deadly asbestos diseases by working for James Hardie.
