A senior official inside Investment New South Wales urged colleagues to keep records of all documents relating to the appointment of the former Business Chamber chief executive Stephen Cartwright to a lucrative London trade job because she said it would “come under scrutiny no doubt”.
New documents released to parliament show that, in the lead up to the announcement of Cartwright as the government’s senior London trade commissioner, public servants inside Investment NSW raised concerns about record keeping in case “someone needs to review what happened”.
