Queensland Premier David Crisafulli to announce commission of inquiry into state CFMEU
The Queensland government will launch a commission of inquiry into allegations of violence and cultural issues within the state branch of the Construction, Forestry and Maritime Employees Union (CFMEU). The announcement follows a damning report written by lawyer Geoffrey Watson SC alleged the union used violence to "support a pursuit of political, industrial, and financial power". The report, commissioned by Queensland CFMEU administrator Mark Irving KC, was compiled from nearly 60 interviews conducted by Mr Watson. A commission of inquiry can compel witnesses to give evidence, and charges can be recommended when it is completed. Premier David Crisafulli said it was the "most powerful inquiry" the state could launch. "If this report only scratched the surface we owe it to Queenslanders to get the full picture with a commission of inquiry," he said.
