The Victorian government has been criticised for blocking the bulk of a freedom of information request for documents pertaining to corruption on the ‘Big Build’ project. Liberal MP David Davis sought access to documents covering the period from 2020 to 2025. The Department of Premier & Cabinet identified a total of 1,082 pages of such documents, but only 132 pages were released; some of these were partially redacted, and were restricted to documents created after July 2024. Davis says the suppression of documents is "outrageous" and it is not credible that Premier Jacinta Allan’s own department is blocking the release of information that is clearly in the public interest.
