Operation Landan live stream - Independent Commission Against Corruption

The #NACC is a pathetic excuse for an Anti-Corruption Commission.

Watch this if you want to see how a real one should work.

Exactly.

I watched yesterday’s hearing.

This highly paid, highly recommended CEO of Schools Infrastructure is not degree qualified but was still put forward for this role by Amy Brown of PWC ands (John Barilaro NY job fame).

I find this to be extraordinary.

School building boss asked staff to ‘chase’ friend over tender scheme In December 2017 Anthony Manning told Martin Berry that a department contractor had been “chasing you for me” but was “not aware of our connection”.

The former boss of the NSW government’s school building unit had a contractor “chase” his friend to apply for an internal pre-qualification scheme which allowed him to bid for a tender that eventually netted his firm about $1 million.

It is embarrassing that the #NACC cannot or won’t conduct similar investigations into Paladin, Canstruct, ScoMo’s $20 Billion spend on contractors in 2022.

Yet the NSW ICAC can openly and transparently investigate NSW School Infrastructure.

Open and transparent gov’t? In NSW? …. Please.

We do have open & transparent GIPA laws which require the public disclosure of all Govt Tender & Contract processes … but not when it involves:
• Peter V’landys
• Gambling
• Developers
• Donors
• Transport
• or any Mega project

Great question,

While that are yet to announce any planning details, the NSW ALP Minns Govt stated they planned on-sell it to private investors.

So the answer is probably NO.

The 2nd best idea I have heard in 2025.

First get Peter V’landys to run health, education, housing, every social service, .. he can simp money off any Govt. They will be flush with cash for generations.

And now this for political donations … it’s just brilliant.

To be honest, this smells like Perrottet’s Cemetery a $5B state stitch-up that’ll linger forever.

V’landys seeks to calm horses over Rosehill sale as vote looms The Australian Turf Club has sought to sweeten members into opposing the sell-off with free memberships and food and drink credits.

Only in NSW do we pay $5 billion for a racecourse, pretend it’s housing policy, and call it a win.

No approvals. No plan. No redevelopment costings.

The estimated $5 billion price tag for Rosehill Racecourse covering 98 hectares (or 240 acres) equates to $51 million per hectare.
