Alan Tudge grilled over carparks scandal and list of 'top 20 marginals'

Former urban infrastructure minister Alan Tudge has denied he had any knowledge of a list of the top 20 marginal seats used to pick car parks for the $660m commuter car park scheme. Tudge was asked several times by journalists if the car park locations were chosen on ‘infrastructure or political need?’. The issue was then raised in Question Time, with the government saying there was ‘no question’ that Tudge ‘had authority to make decisions in relation to community car park scheme'
