天主教学校NSW（Catholic Schools NSW）陷入贪腐丑闻。[1]一名年轻男子在该机构领取超过13万澳元薪酬，其中约60%工作时间用于自由党派系事务。[1]这一事件触发了广泛的问责呼声，多名评论人士要求相关负责人下台。[1]
影子司法部长Damien Tudehope因丑闻中的角色而下台。[1]他承认向自由党活动人士发送了机密议会调查报告，已从新南威尔士州影子司法部长职位辞任。[1]天主教学校NSW董事会成立于2017年，由原天主教教育委员会改组而来，旨在提供更多问责、效率和透明度。[1]在此丑闻中，仅有布拉肯湾教区对ICAC调查做出温和评论，而新南威尔士州其他教区保持沉默。[1]
Catholic Schools NSW has become embroiled in a corruption scandal involving the misuse of the organization for partisan Liberal Party factional disputes.[1] A young man employed by the organization received more than $130,000 in salary while spending approximately 60 percent of his working time on Liberal Party faction matters.[1]
The controversy intensified when Damien Tudehope, the Shadow Attorney General, admitted to sending a confidential parliamentary inquiry report to Liberal Party activists and subsequently resigned from his position.[1] The revelations have prompted calls from multiple commentators for those responsible to step down and face accountability.[1]
The Diocese of Broken Bay offered only mild remarks regarding an ICAC investigation, while other dioceses across New South Wales remained silent on the matter.[1]
The Catholic Schools NSW board was restructured from the former Catholic Education Commission in 2017 with the stated aim of delivering greater accountability, efficiency, and transparency.[1]
