Documents which Premier Gladys Berejiklian signed to give her approval of millions of dollars in grants to local councils were later shredded, a NSW parliamentary inquiry has heard.The inquiry is investigating the allocation of $250 million worth of grants to local councils across NSWAt the time the Premier was in a secret relationship with Wagga Wagga MP Daryl Maguire
Two senior staff from the Premier's office were today called to give evidence on the process by which the grant money was allocated and approved. "Are you aware of the Premier making any disclosures about her relationship with Daryl Maguire before approving these funds?" asked Labor MP Courtney Houssos.She said MPs would typically write to the Premier to lobby for projects in their electorate.

True representative of armenians, with their fake history and corrupted politicians. NSW parliament againt to international laws recently recognised so called artsakh as an independent state. Dear australians search you money in the pockets of corrupted MPs.
auspol must investigate if she channeled the funds to Armenia which kills innocent civilians in Azerbaijan. Armenia has illegally occupied Karabakh part of Azerbaijan for 27 years. GladysMustGo StopArmenanTerrorism StopArmenianOccupation KarabakhIsAzerbaijan
She is more for interests of her native Armenia than Australia. She pushed for recognition of Karabakh as independent country by NSW. Karabakh is internationally recognized as part of Azerbaijan but is under illegal occupation of Armenia for 27 years. GladysMustGo
She definitely bribed local parliament members to get them vote to recognition of so-called Artsakh. KarabakhisAzerbaijan ArmeniaEndTheOccupation
I told you last time GladysB if you lay with dogs you’re going to catch fleas and if you tell me who your friends are I’ll tell you who you are...well you laid with a bad corrupt man and you caught his fleas & you’re now tarnished by his association & damaged goods! Bye GladysB
Now it is clear how NSW recognized 'Artsakh'. Probably with bribery using these millions. Shame on Gladys Berejiklian.
The money is spent probably to buy politicians to recognize so called republic of 'artsax'. She is armenian and use her power to support terrorist groups in Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict. KarabakhisAzerbaijan
Shredded you say. Well if pedantic Ethan Hawke can rigorously reconstruct documents to land the Lord of War fictional character Nicolas Cage in prison then I would say our NSWpolice could do the same for GuiltyGlady.
If there’s no documentation then move on. Gladys just broke up with her fiancé in very tough circumstances. She needs more flowers. And Hazzard and Constance say she’s innocent. Developer commissions are totally fine. Trickle down tickle from the top
I googled her and She is Armenian. Not surprised.
Typical of ABC
Surely a breach of the Archives Act?
resign, shameless one!
How corrupt! Gladys needs to resign!
This lady uses her power to serve Armenian diaspora rather than serving Australian community. Australian government needs investigations on why NSW Parliament priorities international politics instead of working on serving on local community GladysMustGo
Didn't either Lau or Cruickshank think that this was dodgy and make a copy onto a flash drive and as they were involved in destruction of records they were complicit in any cover up. I was only obeying orders no longer works.
were the docs written on a typewriter?
Glady must go. Guilty until proven innocent. This is obviously destroying incriminating evidence.
When is the mainstream media going to report on Gladys' corruption.Her mates must be just as guilty because not a word from one of them. Obviously condone lying to ICAC, paper shredding, grants rorts, 10 times paid for land, 7yrs with Daryl & knew nothing?Morrison look over there
Yep absolutely guilty on this
I distinctly heard in the footage that her staffer said that shredding documents is part of the record keeping process. Really? Come on?
colonelhogans Quick!!!! Focus back on the relationship.
Corruption Corruption Corruption
Yes, but I have to keep me business records for how long for the ATO
What a hell of a year for a lot of people .
It will still be on the computers. Seize them.
What in the world was Gladys thinking?
If her support base doesn’t crumble now in the face of her avid corruption then they’re just as delusional as she is in thinking she’s done nothing wrong.
Of course they did!
... and she claims that she hasn't done anything wrong. What a full load of shit. She should been thrown out of office immediately. Good Night, Gladys.
Shredding for ICAC... the new stereo sonic
Since they won the election in March 2011 corruption has been the middle name of the current NSW Liberal National government. ”13” Liberal MPs scalps were claimed by the time this investigation was over. NSWpol Auspol
Lucky for her it won't be reported in the Murdoch media. They're too busy stalking Brett Sutton on a rare day off. I'm pretty sure they'll be back to attacking Dan Andrews tomorrow, whatever he announces.

Modern day work - if you have a supporting physical document, it’s scanned and saved in a relevant folder or SharePoint. If you want to clear your inbox, you archive your important emails.
Will not be surprised if investigation will find out that she has been funding illegal activity of Australian armenian community, bribing MPs in NSW to recognise separatist organisation 'Artsakh' in October 2020 as an independent Republic. Such a shame for Australia
Is this the norm for the LNP across the country? Pork barrelling and coverup is rife!
As someone else has mentioned, we have to keep receipts and tax records for the previous 7 years for the ATO and Centrelink? Do the Liberals just make the rules up as they go? auspol Murdoch NotALeaderJustALiberal

I do hope Gladys resigns.
But Gladys didn’t do it personally, so it’s ok

What can you say but GladysMustGo
Interesting that there seem to be way less 8bot twitter accounts blindly defending the LNP and Gladys all of a sudden
This is such BS. They’re beholden to the Archives Act. At the very least this act alone should be thoroughly investigated.
So we have had destruction of records, tractor running over ipad and phone, not a close relationship etc. This will be a great cut price West Wing of Macquarie Street
She is having a rough October.
Not suss in the slightest
Not Saint Gladys? Surely?
Unethical, corrupt GuiltyGladys NSW deserves better than LNP piggies with their noses in the trough. Resign in disgrace.
In this instance. Guilty until proven innocent. This is obviously destroying incriminating evidence. Gladly must go.
No the tractor ran them over. Why isn't GladysB in prison yet
Nothing to see here, move along!
Her time is up
zhalli1 Government has a legislated, statutory requirement to retain documents.
zhalli1 If this defence works for Gladys expect the shredders on Capitol Hill to be running night and day.

Late news. Make sure that The Thunderbird takes her to task on Insiders tomorrow. It's okay, l don't think Rupert's in town.

There no end to the corruption of the LNP? Unbelievable. If they were in private industry they'd be in Jail. GladysMustGo koalakiller
It pays to be a crook
AussiemacJ Murdoch told us through Ita on the ABC, that Glad’s boyfriend did it! I think the boyfriend is responsible for climate change worldwide as well!
Poor Gladys
Oh my goodness why is she still leader in the NSW Government. Surely there must be some integrity and honesty in the Liberal party in NSW. This smell to high heaven. Still got the backing of ScoMo though.
Remember Ros Kelly's whiteboard
Couldn't find the right attachment for the tractor then? Feels like we are the frog in the saucepan here - surely this one act alone, in some long ago time, would have been enough for removal from office?
So she deleted an email before nswicac could get their hands on it and now her office has been caught shredding important financial documents. GladysB is corrupt and the evidence is growing. nswicac DO YOUR DAMN JOBS! auspol GladysMustGo
My inner cynic: Did they ever exist? Is there a record of their destruction. I used to work for a NSW govt department. There were protocols in place for document destruction, that included record keeping of the process. (At least, a file name, document number and description).
Dear nswicac I DEMAND AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE POLITICAL ACTIVITIES OF GladysB . I didn’t serve this country in Uniform for nearly 40yrs to just sit by and watch while corrupt Politicians carry on as though it’s business as usual! Do your damn jobs! auspol GladysMustGo
Just corrupt.
Destroying evidence pertinent to the corrupt allocation of hundreds of millions of NSW tax dollars without oversight. I'm sure there's a perfectly innocent explanation. nswpol
Cannot get over the arrogance of the LNP. They think OUR money is their own little nest egg to spend on themselves. Corrupt to the core.
political_alert If you’ve ever had a corrupt affair you will know how sexy it is and how adrenaline filled the investigation
This must have been heart-breaking for her.
Paperless Office? It is the way of most companies organisations that have EDMS, and I'm pretty sure State Govt has EDMS.. If you dont know what edms google it you might shock yourself. Electronic copies are accept by legal/courts very few instances where it isnt.
Get her!!
Yeah but she done it really well, the instructions said maximum 50 sheets and she managed to get 65 sheets in,
Ching Ching
Well it looks like the assistance will cop it in the neck for this one, once again Glad didn’t do anything wrong how could it possibly be her fault. Bloody insubordinate subordinates 🙄
uh-oh glads GladysB
This is just ridiculous. Jail them all.
albericie soooo, should she step down now?
Anyone claiming poor Gladys she had a bad relationship go sook somewhere else 🤨 Your comments are insulting to all women. If she can’t behave in an honest and ethical way she and every other politician should piss off auspol
The name at present maybe Gladys. The real name is political corruption in particular LNPCorruption
She needs to be sacked & investigations should take place for possible criminal charges. No where else would you get away with this. Shame on her if not sacked at least step down. GladysMustGo

This smelly enough for you albericie or still defending Glad?
Come on! Are we fools to put up with this!
Shred everything ... say nothing ... do nothing and deny everything ... that's the code of the LNP
Scomo has taught her well!
Why hasn't she resigned yet? Why is Dan Andrews the one that gets asked if he will resign?
Gold medal shredded with documents. Has she kept her “invoices” for Queensland - apparently she didn’t have the guts to ask Annastacia at national cabinet
Nothing screams innocent quite like shredding details and deleting emails
People who are backed into a corner are more likely to take others down with them. Looks like this story has a way to play out yet.
Yeah. That sounds like a legitimate approach. Literally nothing to see - anymore.
GladysMustGo she is looking just as bad as her ex!
Destroyed documents. Destroying our koalas,our wildlife. She must go. 🐨🐨🐨🦦🦥🦦

Bunch of crooks in suits.
Just think they are above the lawn this LNP state and federal
I wonder how Emma Alberici is going to spin this one in Gladys’ favour ...
Gladys at work
Is there a clean lib that's not corrupt? They place money above humanity. That's their philosophy. She's in no position to claim ignorance.
Sweeeeeeeet now the ABC is at her and even the SMH is giving up on guiltygladys

Is it time yet GladysB ? Computer says YES
The things you do when being manipulated by an evil and corrupt boyfriend! GladysMustGo
Premier of NSW destroys evidence of her own corruption. I would have thought this was a criminal offence?
As with any company one needs to keep records for 7 years. I find this astounding. The depth the LNP governments won't do to protect their corruption and Rorts.
She’s no Angel
Gladys is getting a shredding this month... whoops, I mean Gladys is DOING some shredding... Of her reputation, integrity, self respect...
davrosz Mother Theresa Berejikliian had one eye on the barrel and the other on the Daryl 💔
Makes sense. She didn't need to know about that bit.
Oh Gladys

'I have nothing to hide.'
Wow clearly no transparency with the NSW government.
Just another corrupt politician
Convenient method to file records of $250 million of OUR money! She has absolutely no integrity left!
Another corrupt politician... time for a re-boot !!!
If ever there was a legitimate way to combine the phrases - ‘deleted emails’ and ‘lock her up’, this is it!
friendlyjordies
She loved that shredder, they were in a relationship for several years. She was blinded by love for it while it destroyed documents behind her back, who among us can criticise her for being unlucky in love? Poor thing.
Gladys has got to eat too. BS. Gladys did nothing wrong. BS Gladys is part of the LNPCrimeFamily
How's she going to explain this away? Blinded by love? Sounds like all the dirt is coming out...she's being abandoned by her party. They just want clean hands, just like Smirko.
Did a tractor power the shredder?
What’s this GuiltyGladys must resign BS? When is this level of criminality going to result in lengthy incarceration? DodgyDaryl AuspolSoCorrupt grants
DISGRACEFUL !!!!! She has to GO !!!!
The shredding of documents in this electronic age, particularly when storage is scarce, is a common event and certainly nothing to be excited about.
Being a strong Intelligent woman, its a wonder they didt throw her under a bus long before this. She must have mud on a lot of high profile Libs, to have held her job unchallenged for so long. Liberal brand now automatically defaults to crime and corrupt, and to a dizzying degree
The impeccable facade of Gladys has become a dilapidated & ugly view. Transport projects over run by 100% or more, Stadiums not yet built. Corruption in grant allocations & hidden relationships with developers. Oh how the great fall, what next, suppose more of the same.
Cooked
This is indefensible. GuiltyGladys
Bye Bye Gladys. At least she didn't say she couldn't remember shredding the bogus rort documents
When will Gladys hand in her resignation
She just got unlucky with a boyfriend. Leave her alone she ain’t corrupt. Hahaha “I’ve never done anything wrong and I never will” psychotic much Every deal she has done has been about getting money out of the nsw people and into her mates pockets. Disgusting.
The only thing she forgot to shred was her boyfriend
I wonder if I tell the ATO this, I can claim some businesses expenses and tell them Gladys says it's ok.
Hold on. As a public servant I was required to do a mandatory course on retention of all work-related records, in whatever form they were. If a lowly functionary like me has to abide by these rules, those several dozen layers above should too.
Dear Australia, again you have been played for a fool.
The lnp office management.
Someone's pulled the plug on Gladys (where's Scotty by the way?). Sky story about she didnt tell ICAC of relationship in 2017-18 ! Then SMH repeat about Council grants (which surely they knew about ages ago, I read it somewhere) she 'signed off' on, now ABC.
And shredded her integrity at the same time
On one hand we have the Federal LNP sports roirts & now the State LNP Council Rorts -where coincidentally 95% of the recipients are in LNP held seats- and on the other hand we have honest accountable people. Premier you are as corrupt as you are entitled, RESIGN NOW!! GladysB

Poor Gladys. She had a bad relationship.
The LNP live and breath corruption, it's all they know.
OMG, OMG, a high-ranking government type shredding documents? Oh NO!!!! What's next: funding criminals or letting unions off with hand-slaps? Oh my .... catherine___c

As long as you have grants there will always be biased allocation of said grants by all sides of politics.👎 Why can't we cancel all grants and just allocate the money evenly to all councils?👍
looks like Scotty is going to be in the tight corner..lol.
Omfg..when is that stupid woman going to resign? If it wasn't illegal Gladys, why use the shredder?
