PM was invited to golf club photo-op when news of his membership broke

Key points

  • Documents show Prime Minister Anthony Albanese was invited to a media event celebrating a $6 million upgrade to Marrickville Golf Club, five days before the ABC reported he held an undisclosed honorary membership. The event did not go ahead.
  • Albanese told parliament the grant would fix a sewerage problem, but a department brief did not mention sewerage and instead described clubhouse, bar and revenue upgrades.
  • Opposition Infrastructure spokesperson Bridget McKenzie accused him of misleading parliament.
