Victorian Premier Ben Carroll has launched a royal commission into corruption in the state’s Big Build projects, calling it his top priority since taking office — and he’s ready to testify if needed. But he’s dismissing the opposition’s proposed terms as political theater, claiming his team hasn’t even seen them yet. Opposition leader Jess Wilson is pushing back hard, demanding the inquiry include former premiers Daniel Andrews and Jacinta Allan, plus key figures from construction and unions — insisting no one should be off-limits. While a former IBAC commissioner backs questioning both Andrews and Allan, Carroll insists the chief commissioner will decide who testifies, pledging a wide-ranging, thorough investigation. Wilson’s party wants the commission to scrutinize the entire system — not just one union — and demand public hearings to reveal what leaders knew.
