A high anti-corruption official has denied his boss had an “incentive for giving deceptive proof” after apologising for offering inaccurate data to the Senate.
National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC) chief govt Philip Reed wrote to the Senate on November 25 to make clear earlier proof he had supplied associated to NACC commissioner Paul Brereton’s actions as an adviser to the Inspector-General of the Australian Defence Force (IGADF), the unbiased defence watchdog.
During the sooner proof, Reed had instructed the Senate that Brereton’s provision of recommendation to the IGADF “doesn’t happen in the course of the hours that he works for the fee”.
