Former New South Wales policeman NIGEL CARSON says One Nation cooperated during theJanuary 2000 raid which lasted eight hours.
Mr CARSON says he put the 224 documents seized on a CD Rom, but some material couldhave slipped through the cracks.
Mr CARSON was among three police witnesses giving evidence in the Brisbane MagistratesCourt about the raid by NSW and Queensland police.
During his evidence, HANSON had to leave the courtroom after suffering a coughing fitbut later returned and drank cough mixture.

ETTRIDGE has pleaded not guilty to the charge while HANSON has pleaded not guilty toinducement and dishonestly obtaining almost $500,000 in electoral funding, which she hasalready paid back.
