The Federal Court has found the former head of the Health Services Union, Kathy Jackson, misused union funds. She has been ordered to repay $A1.4 million. Justice Richard Tracey said Jackson had improperly used her position to gain personal advantage, spending union funds on shopping trips, divorce payments and holidays overseas. Jackson declared bankruptcy on the first day of the court case.
