FED:Greens push for Securency inquiry

The Australian Greens will move to establish an inquiry into the Securency international
banknote bribery scandal.

Federal authorities in a number of Asian and African countries have launched investigations
into Securency International, the company accused of bribery to induce officials in a
number of countries to use its banknote products.

The Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) has a half-share in Securency International.

Greens MP ADAM BANDT will introduce a motion in the lower house calling for an independent
inquiry.
