A pay rise granted to the chief executive of the Canberra Institute of Technology, who has been on leave for nearly a year-and-a-half during a corruption inquiry, must be reviewed, the Canberra Liberals say.
Opposition Leader Elizabeth Lee has written to the ACT Remuneration Tribunal urging a review of the decision that handed Leanne Cover a 3.5 per cent pay increase and changes to prevent similar situations in the future.
"Ms Cover has been on paid leave now for nearly 18 months and an acting CEO has been appointed, resulting in the payment of two CEOs at a significant cost to ACT taxpayers," Ms Lee wrote.
