AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

PFAS Legal Push: The Albanese government has launched its biggest-ever lawsuit, suing 3M for more than $2bn over “forever chemicals” contamination at defence sites, with critics arguing it may not go far enough. Housing & Tax Fight: Labor’s housing tax changes are being attacked from both sides after modelling from property groups claims worse outcomes for renters and construction than Treasury forecasts, while the PM tries to reset the debate via social media. Bondi Royal Commission Clash: The government is defending its move to block release of cabinet documents tied to counterterror funding ahead of the Bondi inquiry, with accusations it used confidentiality to shield decisions. Quarantine & Health: Australia extended hantavirus quarantine for cruise-linked passengers after further linked cases abroad, while SA made hantavirus notifiable as a precaution. Energy & Industry: South Australia fast-tracks battery storage, awarding tenders to more than double capacity, and BHP is partnering with an Indigenous-led developer to explore renewables for Pilbara operations. Defence Infrastructure: AECOM has been appointed to study the Henderson Defence Precinct in WA, supporting continuous naval shipbuilding and future nuclear submarine sustainment. Corporate Integrity: KPMG Australia’s CEO Andrew Yates resigned over whistleblower and data-mishandling allegations, as regulators and parliament scrutinise audit conduct.
