ECG announces power outages in Central, Eastern and Western Regions on Thursday

Three employees of Western Power have been stood down for supporting a colleague who is a rapist. The support took the form of letters written to help reduce the man's sentence. These letters were widely criticised as an "appalling" and "terrible lapse in judgement".

The criticism was reported by The Sydney Morning Herald and The Age, which both used the same wording to describe the reaction to the letters.

There was no connection found between Western Power and the unrelated report on planned maintenance works by the Electricity Company of Ghana.
