CFMEU enterprise bargaining agreements associated with construction projects in Victoria could be ripped up as part of an unprecedented response to damning allegations about criminal conduct within the state branch.
Jacinta Allan has called on police and the corruption watchdog to investigate allegations involving the CFMEU Victorian branch as she demanded a ban on donations from the embattled union.
"I have absolutely zero tolerance for this sort of bullying, thuggish, appalling, rotten behaviour," Ms Allan told reporters. "Both of these agencies have strong and appropriate powers to investigate these matters and it's my expectation that they will do so thoroughly," she said. "We will also review how the Victorian infrastructure delivery authority can direct the removal of individuals with criminal associations from work sites across the state."
Mr Albanese told ABC Radio Melbourne that while the administration was a"good next step", more needed to be done to clean up the embattled union.
