The inquiry into whether former Gladys Berejiklian breached public trust has moved behind closed doors this afternoon, as the former NSW Premier continues to be pressed on the details of her relationship with Daryl Maguire.
The Independent Commission Against Corruption in NSW is currently investigating if Berejiklian acted improperly, with her relationship with the former MP for Wagga being the focal point of a lot of the investigation.
The daily dose of crook allegations has been rolling for two weeks and has now moved behind closed doors, as the people running the show look to spare Gladys the indignity of having the more intimate details of her relationship aired out.
The main driver of the inquiry, counsel assisting Scott Robertson has requested a private hearing to discuss personal details about Ms Berejiklian, her former chief of staff Sarah Cruickshank and Mr Maguire.
Assistant Commissioner Ruth McColl has agreed after hearing details around when Gladys and Daryl started farting publically in front of each other.
“It was probably around 2017, when I let the first one go,” giggled Gladys this morning, after another few full-on hours of being grilled.
“I kinda knew at the time that it was a big deal, but I didn’t tell my Chief of Staff or anything obviously”
“Sorry, please, can you boot the journos out,” Gladys then said.
“Come on,” she continued after revealing one of the more personal signs that a couple might be taking the next step.
It’s not known when the ICAC will open its doors again to the public, but it’s believed to be later this afternoon.
More to come.
