  • These PwC executives still haven't been held accountable

    These PwC executives still haven't been held accountable
    Jul 29 2024
    It was one of the biggest corporate scandals the country has ever seen when it was revealed that PwC had used confidential government information to enrich itself and its corporate clients. Since then there have been two parliamentary inquiries, an AFP investigation, nine investigations by the tax practitioners board, one internal review and an investigation by the international arm of the company. Yet important questions remain unanswered. Today, special correspondent Jason Koutsoukis on the key questions at the centre of the tax leaks scandal — and when we can expect answers to them.

  • Zoe Daniel on what it costs to win an election

    Zoe Daniel on what it costs to win an election
    Jul 28 2024
    The historic teal wave at the last election delivered the two major parties their worst electoral results ever. So, perhaps it’s no surprise that the government looks set to introduce new laws that could make it harder for newcomers to compete. The minister responsible says he wants to address the “growing threat of big money in politics.” The rules could include a requirement that all donations over $1000 be disclosed and made public in real time, with caps on the amount that can be donated. A cap on spending is also on the table – somewhere around a million dollars per candidate, per seat, which is significantly less than many of the teals spent to win. Today, independent member for Goldstein Zoe Daniel on how much it costs to beat an incumbent and the double standards of the major parties.
