The head of federal Treasury, Steven Kennedy, has labelled conduct by PwC as "clearly disturbing", as he revealed the public release of a trove of emails from the consulting firm was the catalyst for him to call on the Australian Federal Police (AFP) to investigate a significant tax leak.
PwC is under fire for using confidential Treasury information on tax laws to benefit its client base, with the AFP launching a criminal probe into one of its former partners last week.
