ABC managing director
Daivd Anderson was up at Senate estimates at 9am this morning after he was recalled to be questioned about the end of the
Christian Porter defamation suit, which the former attorney general dropped last week.
The MD is expected to be grilled about the details of the confidential agreement with Porter after the Australian reported that Porter would receive “a sum in the vicinity of $100,000 from the ABC” – a claim the ABC denies.
“The ABC has not and will not pay any amount to Mr Porter,” a spokesperson said.
“ABC managing director David Anderson has been asked to appear before the Senate estimates committee on Monday 7 June and will have the opportunity to respond to a range of issues,” a spokesman said.
