Corruption watchdog to hand down much-delayed Operation Keppel findings on 29 June. Berejiklian has denied any wrongdoing
The New South Wales corruption watchdog will hand down its much-anticipated and highly delayed report into former premierThe Independent commission against corruption announced the report would be released on June 29.
“The NSW Independent commission against corruption will furnish its Operation Keppel investigation report, concerning the then member of parliament for Wagga Wagga, the then premier, and others, to the presiding officers at the NSW parliament on Thursday 29 June 2023 at 9.00 am,” Icac said in a statement on Wednesday afternoon.
The presiding officers are expected to then release the report to the public and it will be available from the commission’s website. The findings will be released after repeated delays blamed on the complexity of the investigation that led the Covid-era premier to resign in late 2021.
McColl was expected to hand down findings last year but the commission has repeatedly delayed publishing an outcome. Earlier this year the commission blamed “complex matters of law and fact”, as well as the quantity of evidence linked to the case.
