ICAC finds former NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian engaged in corrupt conduct

·

The NSW Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) has finally handed down the findings of a corruption probe into former Premier Gladys Berejiklian.

The ICAC has found Ms Berejiklian and her former lover Daryl Maguire engaged in serious corrupt conduct.

The report by ICAC 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.

The report concluded Ms Berejiklian breached public trust by overseeing funding in the electorate of Wagga Wagga without disclosing her personal relationship with Mr Maguire. It found she had a conflict of interest between her public duty and private interest.

Ms Berejiklian has maintained she executed her duties with the highest level of integrity.

The ICAC is not recommending the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) pursue Ms Berejiklian for any offence.
