The Shepherdson Inquiry: An investigation into electoral fraud

This April 2001 report presents the results of the independent Inquiry by the Honourable Tom Farquhar Shepherdson, QC, into allegations of electoral fraud. The Inquiry was prompted when a member of the Australian Labor Party (ALP), Karen Lynn Ehrmann, made serious public allegations about the possibility of electoral fraud by members of the Queensland branch of the ALP.

This paper was tabled in Parliament on 1 May 2001.
