The jury in the case of 47-year-old Michael Andrew Swann, the board's former chief information officer and Kerry Gray Harford (48) has now heard evidence from 42 Crown witnesses, and lawyers for the two accused will have to decide whether or not they are calling any evidence.
Most of today was taken up with testimony from two senior Serious Fraud Office forensic investigators who detailed where the money went and what the pair spent it on.
Expensive cars featured in Swann's spending, with a Porsche he bought for $262,000 in November 2005 being traded in for a Mercedes Benz before Swann bought the Porsche again in his wife's name. He also bought boats and real estate.
It was suggested Harford retained 10 percent of the money from the board because he was acting as a buffer so the board would not realise its employee, Swann, was receiving most of the money.
And the court was told the invoices in the name of Harford-owned company Sonnford Solutions were emailed from Swann to Harford as attachments before being printed up and mailed to the board where Swann passed them for payment.
