> At an inquiry into alleged corruption in the NSW Liberals, Charles Perrottet denied seeking payments from developer Jean Nassif in return for political outcomes. Evidence included a message discussing efforts against former minister David Elliott, while counsel assisting accused Perrottet of obfuscation. Nassif’s expected appearance was postponed after he supplied a medical certificate.
