The ex-head of a top-tier consultancy has defended his record, saying he's no "bad apple" despite damaging allegations of an audit leak and whistleblower claims of a toxic culture at the firm.
Andrew Yates fell on his sword on May 29 when a federal joint parliamentary committee raised allegations against KPMG, which holds more than half a billion dollars of government contracts.
"I don't see myself as a bad apple," he told the committee sitting in Canberra on Friday.
