The NSW Independent Commission Against Corruption conducted a preliminary investigation into information referred to it by The Cabinet Office concerning whether the then minister for the Hunter, Mr Timothy Crakanthorp MP, had failed to declare a conflict of interest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Commission has prepared a report pursuant to section 14(2) of the Independent Commission Against Corruption Act 1988<\/em> including the Commission\u2019s factual and other findings concerning Mr Crakanthorp\u2019s conduct in relation to the NSW Ministerial Code of Conduct. The report has been furnished to the Secretary of The Cabinet Office, and the Premier of NSW, who are the relevant public authority and responsible minister for the purposes of this matter. The report has been provided so that they are appraised of the outcome of the Commission\u2019s investigation, the Commission\u2019s findings and for the purpose of taking any action they consider appropriate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As the Commission is satisfied that there are no reasonable prospects of finding Mr Crakanthorp\u2019s conduct is sufficiently serious to justify a finding of corrupt conduct, it has terminated its investigation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Commission will not be making further comment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The NSW Independent Commission Against Corruption conducted a preliminary investigation into information referred to it by The Cabinet Office concerning whether the then minister for the Hunter, Mr Timothy Crakanthorp MP, had failed to declare a conflict of interest.
