Former ACT Senate candidate Anthony Pesec alleges in Supreme Court hearings that the managing director of Consolidated Builders received discounted shares.

Mr Zivko had been granted a series of 11 options to buy company shares between 2000 and 2007, some of which had been exercised.

There was also a concern that Mr Zivko had caused the shares to be issued to entities associated with him at"unreasonable values", the decision said. The judgment said Mr Pesec had informed the company of his concerns, and it had established a sub-committee to investigate the allegations.The decision said a director, who criticised Mr Pesec's conduct, was appointed to the sub-committee.

"I am satisfied that it is appropriate to exercise the court's discretion … to require the company to produce a number of documents as set out in the terms of the order," she wrote.

A businessman was dodgy to increase profits?! Nooo. Maybe punish big businesses by banning them from operating. Cut off their life line, seems fair since they deny workers basic rights & fair wages.

Construction slowdown worsens, more jobs are lost and new orders dry upThere is no respite from the bad news in the construction sector, with a respected industry survey pointing to the sharpest decline in activity in six years. So much for any 'ScoMo effect' post election. How're you gonna help the LNP try to blame this on the ALP? Will be interesting to see how this is Labor's fault. Time to look a those big renovation plans, perfect timing, cheap rates and competitive (keen) building companies. May be one of the best investment you can make at the moment if you also plan on hanging onto the property for at least another 2 years. 🏡🔨🖌️🧱
