IIRC, Arthur Sinodinos was also third on the Coalition NSW senate ticket at the last election and only just made it.
This really bothers me also.The way he has saddled up with the banks with regard to super is not a good look either.
I doubt his integrity. Maybe he should just go.
This really bothers me also.
I don't believe any amount of regulation will ensure no repeat of such as Storm Financial, but it's at the very least not a good look to remove what was widely seen as some measure of protection for clients.
While this process is underway I will therefore be standing aside as Assistant Treasurer.
He's just stood down.
Which is more than Craig Thomson did
If he can't, he's just another snout in the public trough.AWH paid Senator Sinodinos $200,000 for 100 hours of work per year, according to ICAC evidence.
To me, the first thing Arthur Sinodinus has to explain is the circumstances behind this,

I suspect that only rewarding the "highly regarded" Sinodinos with a junior ministry when the Coalition came to office was to some extent insurance against his former AWH role becoming a political problem. So early in the government's term, the loss of a junior minister (should it prove to be long term) wouldn't be in isolation a long term political problem.
The Senate rerun in WA however complicates that and obviously would not have been anticipated by any political strategist. Sinodinos obviously is still yet to have his day(s) at the ICAC hearing so until then it's too early to pass final judgement.
One thing that is clear though is that the Obeid's tried to curry favour from both sides of the political divide and as it currently stands, Arthur Sinodinos currently looks like a skeleton in the Coalition closet from that.
NSW it all started with the Rum Corps and never ended, party affiliation is no boundary to the corruption that exists on Australia's eastern sea board.
Bit shocked actually about what's been revealed so far being a blue blood Liberal.
He's holding his breath in anticipation of Labor's re-election to office at the federal level.Has someone hacked your account IFocus ?? You a blue blood Liberal? Care to share these startling revelations?

AWH was effectively charging the publically owned Sydney Water for its exorbitant salaries.Isn't AWH a private company?
I'm amazed that someone of his experience didn't apparently investigate who he was working for at AWH.
The depth and scale of Obeid's influence continues to amaze me.
At least Sinodinos worked 100 hours for his dough.
Come on IFocus - focus.
