A senior New South Wales Liberal Party figure has made a shocking admission to an inquiry, revealing a potential breach of confidentiality in a parliamentary investigation. Damien Tudehope, the state's shadow attorney general and leader of the opposition in the upper house, testified before the Independent Commission Against Corruption (Icac) in connection with Operation Rosny, an investigation into allegations of corruption and misconduct. Tudehope's testimony included an admission that he leaked a confidential draft report from a 2023 parliamentary inquiry to a member of a group of young conservative Liberal powerbrokers, who are now under scrutiny by the corruption watchdog. The revelation raises questions about the handling of sensitive information and potential conflicts of interest within the NSW Liberal Party.
