Royal Commission to Probe Big Build Corruption | Perth News

Published 6 days, 2 hours ago
Description

Victorian Premier Ben Carroll has launched a sweeping royal commission into the state’s construction sector, promising a no-holds-barred probe into corruption tied to massive taxpayer-funded projects. With the power to investigate government, contractors, and unions, the commission signals a major shift after years of resistance — and could uncover billions lost to misconduct. While integrity experts hail it as a vital step toward restoring trust, critics call it a political ploy to boost ratings ahead of elections. A special prosecutor will join the inquiry, and hearings are expected to begin soon — though the leader of the probe remains unannounced.
