INAM: "Is this really necessary given that it is a criminal matter?"
Yes, as a RC has far more extensive powers than those available to police in a criminal investigation, and if you think back, the recently "mentioned" CMEFU is nothing more than a phoenix BLF which was de-registered due to its actions and connections. back in the 70's
"it's just another witch hunt designed to destroy our Trade Unions, how about the corruption in the NSW Liberal Govt, they are up to their necks in it.........."
"our trade unions" ?
I think the comment should have been: how about the corruption in the past NSW Labor Govt,
"ICAC inquiry finds corrupt conduct by former NSW Labor figures"
"In a further damning exposure of the putrid, corporate-dominated character of the Australian Labor Party, corruption findings have been issued against millionaire businessman Eddie Obeid, the former head of the ALPโs dominant right-wing machine in the state of New South Wales, and ex-state Resources Minister Ian Macdonald."
B1G, there is a vast difference between political largess, which you refer to, and actual findings from the NSW ICAC, which you don't mention.
They want to find a bit of dirt to give them an excuse to bring back workchoices.
Call a royal commission on anything it is bound to find something
The real question is can we afford it? 
I thought we were broke!

They want to destroy Labor so there is no opposition at the next election. It's only about unions in so far as it's a way of attacking Labor.
It's just the good old LNP double standard.
Well it won't work because people need to work to survive and they will ark up eventually, it is just a twisted way to go about their agenda, sneaky as usual

I am fairly sure most people can see through their vicious and vindictive ways.

I actually have a lot of friends who were members of the BLF and I was around myself at the time, if I thought there was any point at all in discussing the con job that led to the disgraceful de-registering of the BLF with you I would, sadly it would be similar to speaking to your little sheep or goat.
As for the ALP corruption findings that you mention - it's been exposed.........do you really want to spend around 40million on the same findings.

It is important to recognise the unique features of a royal commission that need to be taken into account when determining what a royal commission can achieve compared to other forms of inquiry or investigation. At its heart, a royal commission is a formal public inquiry into an issue defined as a matter of public importance. The issue to be investigated by a royal commission must have a level of seriousness and controversy to justify the use of a royal commission instead of some other form of public inquiry, such as a task force, committee or review. Royal commissions are temporary, ad hoc inquiries that investigate an issue and publicly report the findings. Royal commissions are not passive inquiries. A fundamental outcome of a royal commission is to make recommendations of a non-binding nature relating to the issue under inquiry. Ultimately, it does not provide a means for compensation or prosecution, even though the creation of a royal commission does not prevent such future action proceeding, as is evident in any number of recent class actions arising from catastrophic events.
