GLEESON CJ:   This appeal was heard in Canberra on 25 May 2001 by a Court constituted by Justices Gaudron, Gummow, Kirby, Hayne and myself.  The Court is now in a position to make its order.  Reasons for judgment will be published at a future date.

The order of the Court is:

(1)  Appeals allowed.

(2)  Order of the Court of Criminal Appeal of New South Wales of 21 October 1999 set aside.  In place thereof order that the appeals to that Court be allowed, that the conviction and sentence be quashed, and that there be a new trial.

I publish that order.

AT 10.18 AM THE MATTER WAS CONCLUDED
