CFMEU administrator sent corruption-busters away, then had to sack top figure
Two teams of investigators with integrity experience were assembled to uncover graft in the union, and then were swiftly disbanded.
The Albanese government’s CFMEU reform chief, Mark Irving KC, abruptly abandoned two anti-corruption teams hired to uncover graft in the union, leaving serious misconduct allegations untouched for months.
As a result, suspected crooked officials took key roles within the embattled union.
- Three confidential sources who worked for CFMEU administrator Mark Irving KC confirmed he failed to enact advice to seek more powers from the federal government to deal with wrongdoing.
- Former AFP officer Chris Craner was recruited to help investigate wrongdoing at the CFMEU.
One source said Irving was concerned doing so could risk reviving calls for the coalition’s Australian Building and Construction Commission.
