CFMEU Union Shifts Gears, New Leader Appointed
Description
Mark Irving, the appointed administrator of Australias troubled CFMEU construction union, has stepped down after twenty months of probes and investigations. He has handed over day-to-day control to Michael Crosby, a seasoned union vet, while remaining as senior counsel. The union is now shifting into a rebuild mode, with the government and industry heads expressing mixed reactions to the change in leadership. The timing of Irvings departure coincides with the resumption of a major inquiry in Queensland, investigating alleged delays and budget overruns on projects like Cross River Rail. The unions future and the effectiveness of the recent changes remain to be seen.
