Report reveals a web of political donations, special access and secret lobbying behind controversial mining projects.
The report examines 6 highly controversial QLD resource projects and highlights the strong connection of these companies to QLD and federal political parties. The Queensland Liberal National Party accepted over $300,000 from companies associated with these projects, but most of the political donations went to the Liberal Party of Australia, who accepted $1.75 million.
