It has been revealed that Dave Hanna stepped down as national president of the Construction, Forestry, Mining & Energy Union after being linked to payments made by two subcontractors to finance IVF treatment for the partner of a union organiser. Hanna resigned in August 2015, and he is the subject of an investigation by the Royal Commission into Trade Union Governance & Corruption over an unrelated matter. He had cited health issues as the reason for his resignation.
