Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk has denied having any prior knowledge of allegations that her government ordered former state archivist Mike Summerell to “deliberately” change one of his annual reports in a way that would tell a “misleading story for political gain.”
This comes after Summerell, who left the job in March 2021, said he was ordered to remove any information from his 2017–18 annual report relating to Transport Minister Mark Bailey’s private email scandal.
