https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023-06-29/icac-findings-into-former-premier-gladys-berejiklian/102539148 ICAC makes findings of corrupt conduct against former NSW premier Gladys Berejiklian and Daryl Maguire By Amy Greenbank Posted 1h ago 1 hours ago The New South Wales Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) has made serious corrupt conduct findings against former premier Gladys Berejiklian and former Liberal MP Daryl Maguire. Key points: The report found Gladys Berejiklian breached the public trust in 2016 and 2017 ICAC did not recommend criminal charges be pursued against Ms Berejiklian Ms Berejiklian resigned as NSW premier two years ago The report was delivered to parliament just after 9am today, almost two years after Ms Berejiklian resigned from the state's top job. The ICAC was probing whether Ms Berejiklian's secret relationship with Mr Maguire, the former MP for Wagga Wagga, influenced her conduct in office. It found Ms Berejiklian breached the public trust in 2016 and 2017 by overseeing the awarding of a grant to the Australian Clay Target Association (ACTA) in Wagga Wagga without disclosing her personal relationship with Mr Maguire. , updated 16m ago |

cont.
At the time she was treasurer and the ICAC found her actions created a conflict of interest between her public duty and private interest. The watchdog also found she was influenced by her relationship with Mr Maguire, or by a desire to maintain or advance the relationship, when she promised funding for a recital hall at the Riverina Conservatorium of Music (RCM) in Wagga Wagga in 2018. Mr Maguire was an "enthusiastic advocate" for more funding for the ACTA and RCM, according to ICAC, and Ms Berejiklian presided over the Expenditure Review Committee that approved the grants. The ICAC is not, however, recommending the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) pursue Ms Berejiklian for any offence. |

Always knew she was corrupt. There is a reason she announced her retirement hours after her ICAC announced they would investigate her

"...Handing down its findings today, the Independent Commission Against Corruption has found she engaged in “serious corrupt conduct” and released a disturbing phone tap underscoring the intense, secret relationship.
It recommends the Director of Public Prosecutions examines prosecuting Mr Maguire but does not suggest this should occur with regard to Ms Berejiklian....

So when is ICAC going to start investigating all Federal Government corruption allegations from the last election, or don't they have any evidence?

Poor Gladys broke the most serious and only unforgivable rule for the right, she got caught.

Now Now John - The question for the right isn't if they are corrupt or not just if they got caught or not. Would you like a nice bottle of wine or maybe a land deal in the St George area ? |

She'll still get her cash for life plus earnings in an 'executive position' with Optus....
Corrupt politicians should be stripped of their reward for public service...... changes are needed, the first being far away from their massively preferential 'superannuation' scheme that offers millions out of the public purse over a lifetime. |

Federal ICAC doesn't start until tomorrow (new financial year). They already have a backlog of investigations lined up. It'll take time before they get to skin their cats |
Title: Re: Gladys Berejiklian is corrupt. Post by greggerypeccary on Jun 30th, 2023 at 9:14am Mr. Potato Head says she's not corrupt. Mr Dutton said the former NSW Premier is “absolutely a wonderful person”. So there we go. |

Yeah - but there's core and non-core corruption, you know - and the determining factor is the popularity level of the guilty bastard.
Just turning a blind eye to your boyfriend's thievery while knowing about it full well is not corruption in a state Premier - not by a long shot - it's just business as usual, and business is good!! Good for some that's for sure... |
