澳大利亚游说者杰里米·格林伍德在独立反腐委员会的调查中作证,承认其商业伙伴克里斯蒂安·埃利斯使用假名"杰西卡"发送发票是一种"玩笑"[1]。该调查聚焦格林伍德涉嫌同意分享来自逃亡开发商让·纳西夫的200万美元贿赂,以及其公司贝金顿被用于资金洗白的指控[1]。
贝金顿公司在两年内从天主教学校新南威尔士州获得了130,900美元的款项[1]。然而,独立反腐委员会发现,在2019年8月至2021年8月期间,贝金顿未能提供任何证据证实向该机构提供的服务[1]。格林伍德承认曾向让-克劳德·佩罗特支付了1000美元用于接听电话,但无法回忆相关的具体金额、时间和原因[1]。
Lobbyist Jeremy Greenwood testified before Australia's Independent Commission Against Corruption that his business partner Christian Ellis created a fictitious employee named "Jessica" to send invoices as a prank [1]. The ICAC inquiry is examining allegations that Greenwood agreed to share a A$2 million bribe from fugitive developer Jean Nassif, with his company Beckington allegedly used to launder funds directed toward Catholic Schools NSW in support of the conservative Reformers faction [1].
According to the investigation's findings, Catholic Schools NSW paid Beckington A$130,900 over two years, yet the ICAC found no evidence that Beckington provided any services to the organisation between August 2019 and August 2021 [1]. Greenwood claimed he paid A$1,000 to Jean-Claude Perrottet for a phone call, though he was unable to recall specific amounts, timing, or the reason for the payment [1].
