Allegations NSW Premier Chris Minns Took Thousands of Dollars from Unnamed Donors in 2015 Referred to ICAC

Allegations Against NSW Premier Chris Minns

Allegations that New South Wales Premier Chris Minns accepted thousands of dollars from unidentified donors in 2015 have reportedly been referred to the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC). These claims stem from an affidavit submitted by a former Australian Labor Party (ALP) state organiser during a closed hearing.

Details of the Affidavit

According to the affidavit, the organiser alleged that donations were received from individuals who were not publicly named and possibly not declared, raising concerns about electoral integrity at the time. The document was presented as part of confidential proceedings and has since drawn political and public attention.

Official Responses and Next Steps

The Premier’s office has declined to comment on the specific allegations but emphasized that all fundraising activities were conducted within the rules. ICAC has yet to confirm whether it will launch a formal investigation into the matter.

“All donations and fundraising activities followed the proper legal and ethical guidelines,” a spokesperson for Minns stated.

The situation has sparked broader discussion about transparency and political donations in state politics.
