CEO’s spending on booze, hotels to be probed

The board of the National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Corporation, which provides transport services for Indigenous people in remote communities, has demanded a forensic audit be undertaken and voted to engage an investigator to examine the conduct of the organisation’s administration.

“Ultimately it is my task, as directed by the NATSIC board of directors, to investigate the allegations, provide the finding and a recommendation to the board on the conclusion of the investigation,” he said. Bank statements from 2017 to 2020 seen by NCA NewsWire show more than $245,000 debited from NATSIC bank cards in a seven-month window.Bank statements reveal the spending debited from NATSIC.More than $1100 was also spent one evening on accommodation at The Westin Sydney and trendy pub the Fortune of War in The Rocks.

The nearly 400 purchases and withdrawals occurred across the country, including Sydney, Melbourne, Newcastle, Adelaide, the Hawkesbury, Dubbo, Brisbane, Cairns and Townsville at premium hotels such as the Pullman, Hilton, Stamford Plaza, and the Marriott.Up to $3142.35 was spent at the Crown Plaza in the Hunter wine region, according to the statements.

He said there was a “misapprehension concerning the expenditure of NATSIC funds” and expenses were made on behalf of a number of the organisation’s staff and board members.
