Finance Minister Michaelia Cash will give evidence in the Federal Court case brought against the Registered Organisations Commission and others by the Australian Workers’ Union after her office tipped off the media to an AFP raid of AWU offices in late 2017.
Senator Cash tried to fight the subpoena to appear but her lawyer, Chris Herman, told a pre-trial hearing in Melbourne “she’s prepared to give evidence at a suitable time to accommodate parliamentary and ministerial commitments”.
On October 24, 2017, the AFP conducted raids on AWU offices in Melbourne and Sydney as part of an investigation into donations made to GetUp and Labor candidates when Opposition Leader Bill Shorten was head of the union.
More to come.
