The Independent Commission Against Corruption’s (ICAC) report into allegations involving Mr Tim Crackanthorp MP has now been released.
The ICAC has found that Mr Crackanthorp:
Knowingly failed to declare a conflict of interest, which constituted a breach of public trust
Participated in meetings as Minister which constituted a further breach of public trust
Breached the NSW Ministerial Code of Conduct (twice)
Given these adverse findings, Mr Crackanthorp should resign from Parliament immediately.
If he fails to do so, Premier Chris Minns should move to have him expelled from the NSW Parliamentary Labor Party and not rely on his vote on the floor of the Legislative Assembly.
This will be a test of Premier Minns’ commitment to integrity in government.
