August 1, 2019. Shadow minister for Eduction, Tanya Plibersek speaks to the media in Canberra saying she has no knowledge of whether Carl Bitar, a former National Secretary of the Australian Labor Party who works as an executive for Crown Limited, or Mark Abib, a former Labor minister who works for James Packer's company, lobbied Labor members to vote against a parliamentary inquiry into Crown Casino.
