Qld minister Bailey email drama continues
Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk will investigate what happened when a person's resume was sent to Labor front-bencher Mark Bailey's private email account.
Mr Bailey, the then energy minister, received and then forwarded an email from Electrical Trades Union state secretary Peter Simpson containing the resume to his chief-of-staff in their first term in power.
Ms Palaszczuk says she does not know who the resume belonged to or if that person was then given a government job, but has promised to find out.
"If there is any particular details that people want investigated further we can have a look at those particular matters," she said on Wednesday.
The name of the person who sent the resume to Mr Bailey has been redacted in the released emails, which have been canvassed by the Crime and Corruption Commission.
Mr Bailey, now the minister for transport and main roads, was investigated by CCC for using the Yahoo account to contact Mr Simpson.
Officials found while he would have required legal permission to delete 660 of the emails, his reopening of the account meant he did not breach the public records act.
Liberal National Party leader Deb Frecklington has asked speaker Curtis Pitt to refer Mr Bailey to the Ethics Committee for investigation after the emails were last month released under the Right to Information request.
