MEDIA BRIEFING NOTE LEE RHIANNON MLC 8 September 2008
Greens analysis of the donations disclosed by Premier Nathan Rees' new
Cabinet Ministers today shows that they have taken nearly $2 million in
campaign donations, and the biggest fundraisers have been rewarded most
highly in the reshuffle.
"Donations scandals will continue to dog this government until they end
their donations culture and introduce a total ban on corporate donations,"
said Greens MP Lee Rhiannon.
