The Canberra Institute of Technology is considering whether to take legal action to recover costs after a years-long investigation into controversial consultancy contracts worth $8.7 million-dollars. The ACT Integrity Commission found the CIT’s former Chief Executive engaged in serious corrupt conduct by misleading the CIT Board and ACT Skills Minister about the contracts. Though both the CIT and the government say they are confident this could never happen again, the opposition is concerned about the reputational impact for the institute.
