Australian Access Capital Company Pty Ltd: more questions for Gladys Liu to resolve in parliament next week, unless it’s just “clumsy” parliamentary disclosure #auspol
It is curious that Ms Liu’s initial parliamentary declaration of interests (as at the time of her election on 18 May) failed to declare her interest in Australian Access Capital Company Pty Ltd, of which she had been the director and sole shareholder for eleven years.
Ms Liu was engaged in Federal Court litigation relating to her company as recently as 2016.
Ms Liu appears to have updated her company's details as recently as February 2018 - so why didn't she include it on her initial parliamentary declaration of interests?
It is also of interest that Ms Liu quietly amended her declaration of interests to include her company in mid August; that is around the time media were beginning to probe her business affairs and associations.
This is another troubling anomaly, and part of a pattern of inadequate disclosure that calls into question the candour and completeness of Ms Liu's statements.
She should seek to resolve all of the serious matters that have been raised by making a comprehensive statement concerning all her interests and associations to the Australian Parliament next week #auspol
