ICAC probes alleged Catholic schools donation scheme
New South Wales ICAC is investigating allegations that Catholic Schools NSW CEO Dallas McInerney sought donations from federal Opposition Leader Angus Taylor for a secretive Liberal Party faction called the Reformers. The inquiry is examining whether $265,000 in school fees and taxpayer funds were funnelled to the right-wing political group through fake invoices for government relations services. McInerney denies requesting financial support for the Reformers, claiming messages in a group chat suggesting otherwise were boastful lies.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
