新南威尔士州独立反腐委员会(ICAC)的Operation Rosny调查正在引发政治风波，该调查涉及非法捐款和派系斗争[1]。在调查的聚光灯下，新州政治圈子两派都在利用这一时机为自己谋利[1]。自由党右派人物大卫·埃利奥特公开预测哪些议员可能被传唤[1]，而工党政府则趁势在周二下午突然发布了一份关于仇恨言论法的报告[1]。
ICAC的主要指控涉及新州改革派接受逃亡地产开发商让·纳西夫(Jean Nassif)的非法捐款[1]。发布的仇恨言论法报告对工党之前的立法改革提出了严厉批评，称该法在不同群体间造成了任意的法律差异[1]。值得注意的是，工党政府从去年11月起就已获得该报告，但一直以内阁文件为由拒绝公开[1]。
As New South Wales faces intense scrutiny from the Independent Commission Against Corruption's Operation Rosny investigation, politicians across the political divide are leveraging the crisis for partisan gain.[1] Liberal Party right-faction figure David Elliott has publicly speculated about which lawmakers may be summoned by the inquiry, while the Labor government seized on Tuesday to release a report on hate speech legislation that harshly criticized the party's previous reforms to the law.[1]
Operation Rosny centers on illegal donations and factional infighting, with the commission's main allegations targeting NSW Reform faction members who allegedly accepted unlawful contributions from fugitive property developer Jean Nassif.[1] John Ruddick, a Liberal upper house member who secured 3.5 percent of the state vote, is among those implicated in the investigation.[1] The Sackar report, which the Labor government has possessed since November of last year but refused to release on grounds of cabinet privilege, found that Labor's hate speech legislation created arbitrary legal disparities between different groups.[1]
