CIT CEO Under Fire for Transparency Fail | Sydney News

A damning ACT Legislative Assembly report accuses CIT CEO Margot McNeill of obstructing transparency over her appointment, citing her refusal to cooperate and claims of legal privilege that stalled a crucial inquiry. The controversy erupted when it emerged she omitted an investigation into her prior TAFE NSW role — a claim TAFE NSW later contradicted, saying they never barred disclosure. Despite multiple opportunities to clarify, McNeill’s legalistic defensiveness left the committee frustrated and confused, ultimately recommending the Public Sector Standards Commissioner review her conduct for compliance with public service ethics. With McNeill on leave, the episode raises urgent questions about accountability, transparency, and whether public institutions can function properly when leaders refuse to answer basic questions.
