Shady Mining Donations Under the Spotlight



Mining giants Nathan Tinkler and Santos are today facing scrutiny over some of their large donations to political and community entities.

The NSW Nationals are reported to have accepted $50,000 in donations from Tinkler before becoming aware the billionaire may be a prohibited donor under NSW laws.

Flagged in the party’s official political donations disclosure, the NSW Nationals told The Australian today they were assessing whether Tinkler’s donation needed investigating.

Under current state laws property developers are prohibited from making political donations.
