After reviewing the contract awarding in the run-up to the November 2018 election, the Independent Broad-Based Anti-Corruption Commission (IBAC) released its Operation Daintree report on Wednesday.

The probe found that a ministerial advisor in Jill Hennessy's office put pressure on Department of Health and Human Services workers to give the job to a Health Workers Union agency. It also discovered that an advisor in the office of a new health minister Jenny Mikakos (right) and an advisor in the office of Premier Daniel Andrews (left) interfered with the department's administration of the public interest.

Anybody who makes IBAC investigations public, according to Dan Andrews, could face prison time

Mr Andrews and former health minister Jill Hennessy were secretly interrogated about a $3.4 million grant given to a health services union in the run-up to the last state election, according to The Age. Mr Andrews accused people of peddling smear and innuendo against him, though denying any wrongdoing.
