The fund used to make the $5.5 million Wagga Wagga gun club grant was only created - by Dominic Perrottet as NSW Treasurer - months before Perrottet personally approved it.

The $5.5 million grant to fund a 1000-person convention centre at a gun club in Wagga Wagga was the only one - of over 90 grants - in the NSW Murray-Riverina region that went to a non-government entity.

NSW Premier Dominic Perrottet as Treasurer was responsible for the $5.5m gun club grant, which was green-stamped despite being “unusual” and NSW Sport not wanting “any involvement”

The $5.5m contract to redevelop the gun club at the centre of NSW corruption investigations was awarded to Wagga Wagga’s former long-time major - and current council member.

The gun club at the centre of ICAC investigations incurred mystery “costs” in obtaining its $5.5m government grant that were so substantial they dinted its 2016 profits.

The gun club at the centre of the Gladys Berejiklian ICAC inquiry had sought government grants - but been repeatedly rejected - for years before Daryl Maguire secured the $5.5m.
