I wish I was making this up, but the boss of the National Anti-Corruption Commission has given a speech where he admits that he acted with "apprehended bias" during the Robodebt non-investigation. As Bernard Keane and many others argue, Brereton has to resign www.crikey.com.au/2024/11/18/p...

Brereton always defines corruption as typically being engaged in "for a private benefit" which is explicitly NOT what his own Act requires. They even have a clause saying: "Conduct involving a public official may be corrupt conduct even if the conduct is not for the person’s personal benefit."

Secret navy officer case highlights tensions between Defence and NACC
A former 'star-ranked' Royal Australian Navy officer faces a court-martial in September over eight charges linked to alleged lucrative Defence contracts at the Henderson Shipyard near Perth. The $12 billion facility, crucial for AUKUS preparations, is central to the case. Major General Michael Cowen KC, the ADF's chief judge advocate, has suppressed all details, including the accused officer's identity. Defence commentators argue the case is being 'buried' from public view, with calls for an open civil court trial. The NACC initially referred the matter but returned it to Defence, a pattern critics say reflects a cosy relationship between the department and its investigative body. This raises concerns about transparency and accountability in military procurement processes. The case underscores broader tensions within Australia's defence sector, where allegations of corruption and opaque dealings have sparked public scrutiny.
