The Royal Commission into Trade Union Governance & Corruption will hear further evidence concerning the Australian Workers’ Union in the week beginning 12 October 2015. However, Opposition Leader Bill Shorten is not expected to be asked to front the inquiry again, as there have been no applications to cross-examine the former AWU national secretary. Shorten has been highly critical of the royal commission.
