Counsel assisting inquiry suggests Anita Perrottet’s alleged advice on vaping and greyhound industry was already on public record from other sources A Liberal factional figure has rejected a suggestion he gave “ridiculous” evidence that Dominic Perrottet’s sister-in-law shared in $660,999 for giving a “mum’s perspective” on lobbying clients, the New South Wales anti-corruption watchdog has heard.

What might happen next? AI-generated

These scenarios are written by an AI language model from the headline and summary above. They are not predictions from the newsroom, and they are not evidence of anything. Every one is given a deadline and checked against later coverage, and the score is published on the ledger — including the ones that miss.

  • Awaiting deadline 40% Quick Dismissal of Allegations

    Icac decides the evidence presented by Greenwood was entirely immaterial and irrelevant to the scope of the investigation into the Premier’s family. The inquiry may issue a public statement confirming that the 'mum's perspective' input did not meet the legal threshold for misconduct. This allows the current political narrative to stabilize without further controversy.

    Watch for: Icac issues a public ruling stating 'evidence from family members does not constitute evidence of misconduct in this case' · Opposition leader announces the issue has been resolved by the agency's procedural ruling

  • Awaiting deadline 30% Political Escalation

    The opposition uses Greenwood's testimony as a new talking point to undermine the Premier's administration. They demand a formal inquiry into whether any other informal advice given to the Premier's circle was improperly influenced. This could lead to a specific, targeted media investigation into the Premier's advisory team.

    Watch for: A named opposition MP files a motion in Parliament specifically referencing the Greenwood/Perrottet testimony · A major news outlet runs an exclusive interview with a Premier spokesperson calling the allegations 'politically motivated'

  • Awaiting deadline 20% Counter-Intuitive Public Acceptance

    Despite the negative framing, the public perception of the controversy shifts. A segment of the public begins to view the 'mum's perspective' as relatable or benign, causing the political fallout to cool off rapidly. A grassroots media campaign highlights the 'ordinary family' aspect of the situation, effectively neutralizing the political attack.

    Watch for: Social media trending topic shifts from 'Perrottet Scandal' to 'Family Values Debate' within 48 hours · A major commercial radio station plays a public service announcement promoting family life in relation to the news cycle

  • Awaiting deadline 10% Deep Procedural Scrutiny

    The Liberal factional figure who rejected the evidence begins a formal internal review of the inquiry's process, claiming the handling of the evidence was flawed. This creates a procedural deadlock, forcing the government to divert political capital to defend the integrity of the ICAC process itself, rather than the individuals involved.

    Watch for: A formal letter is submitted by a Liberal factional leader to the ICAC Ombudsman questioning evidence handling protocols · A scheduled press conference is moved or canceled by the ICAC Chair citing 'internal procedural review'
