Carenne Support attempted take a transport contract away from another operator

On July 10 2009, an operator under the Special Needs Transport Service was told that he had been misdeclaring kilometres on his payment claims and was told by the Department of Education and Training. There was a rumor circulating at the time that this company may lose it's contact.

I am led to believe that a number of parents contacted the transport unit and complained about the appalling treatment of this company by the department. At the time, a few staff at Carenne leaked information to parents about other operators who had been overdeclaring kilometres which was then used in these complaints.

It has since been discovered that Lee Churches, a director of Carenne Support Limited, the company which received funds the Bathurst community was told was for the school for its buses and the company which there is documented evidence that they were defrauding the SNTS made a complaint that the operator had been overdeclaring kilometres as she believed it to be a profitable run and would give Carenne Support a reason to buy a larger bus.

This was shocking, the man they tried to steal this from is a long time operator and supporter of the school. What Lee did was reprehensible.
