So then ICAC becomes a political organisation, picking and choosing the timing of its announcements to favor certain politicians depending on circumstances?
This is what top silk and former counsel assisting ICAC Geoffrey Watson SC had to say about the timing:
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-10-...lian/100510076"I think it's actually a great moment for ICAC because it's shown, yet again, it doesn't care how powerful the person is, it doesn't care how popular the person is, it does the right thing," he said.
"I saw that the Premier criticised the timing of it, I couldn't disagree more.
"The timing is perfect, this is exactly the point in our history when we want our politicians placed under close scrutiny."
