The Scam is in and Australia has been Stung
“A Gold Coast businessman with ties to former Liberal MP Stuart Robert remains listed as a director in at least 10 Australian companies despite “severing ties” and living abroad.
John Margerison had been called as a key witness for a parliamentary hearing in July into contracts awarded by Services Australia and the National Disability Insurance Agency.
But public accounts and audits committee chair Julian Hill said the hearing could no longer go ahead after Margerison’s lawyer informed him the businessman had severed all ties with Australia and was now living overseas, outside the jurisdiction of parliament.
Guardian Australia can reveal, however, Margerison remains a director of at least 10 Australian companies, including four linked to the DJ Group associated with NDIS providers.
