Yvette Berry’s Fall and Self-Government Scrutiny | Australia News
Description
Yvette Berry has resigned from cabinet after a damning Integrity Commission report exposed corruption in the Campbell Primary School procurement process, implicating her former chief of staff and the Education Department’s director-general — a betrayal the Chief Minister called “badly let down.” This follows her earlier stumble over an uncompleted aquatic facilities report in Woden, which she blamed on public servants — though she insists she was unaware. Juggling education, housing, and sport amid relentless crises, Berry kept the public informed despite the chaos. The fallout has reignited debate over ACT self-government, with some calling for a return of state powers to NSW — all while the core question remains: how did these failures happen, and what does it mean for the territory’s future?
