CFMEU Corruption Investigation Disbanded
Two teams of investigators with experience in integrity were assembled to uncover corruption in the CFMEU union, but were swiftly disbanded.
The Albanese government's CFMEU reform chief, Mark Irving KC, abandoned the anti-corruption teams, leaving serious misconduct allegations unaddressed for months.
Irving was concerned that seeking more powers from the federal government could risk reviving calls for the coalition's Australian Building and Construction Commission.
- Three confidential sources confirmed Irving failed to enact advice to seek more powers to deal with wrongdoing.
- Former AFP officer Chris Craner was recruited to help investigate wrongdoing at the CFMEU.
Suspected corrupt officials took key roles within the union during this time.
