Labor calls for fresh probe into seat-for-job allegations Housing and Public Works Minister Bruce Flegg. People could "go to jail" over the fresh allegations regarding the member for Moggill and an alleged inducement for him to stand aside for Campbell Newman. Opposition leader Annastacia Palaszczuk said the taped conversations - uncovered by News Ltd allegedly revealing Bruce Flegg and LNP executive heavyweights discussing plumb overseas postings in exchange for Dr Flegg vacating his safe conservative seat - could amount to perjury. Dr Flegg and members of the party executive had been investigated by the Crime and Misconduct Commission in 2011 over the claims and denied any wrongdoing. They were ultimately cleared. But Ms Palaszczuk said the fresh claims cast that evidence in doubt. "These are serious, serious allegations that now must be reopened and reinvestigated," she said. If a person has misled the CMC, if a person has lied to the CMC, this is perjury and perjury means a max of up to 14 years' imprisonment. But let's also look at electoral bribery. Electoral bribery is a serious offence which can impose a penalty of up to seven years imprisonment. This fresh evidence shows Bruce Flegg was offered an inducement to leave his seat for the Premier Campbell Newman. Today the premier must come out of hiding and explain the actions, which are engulfing his government. In a statement, Mr Newman said: "These matters have all been investigated by the CMC. They gave all the people concerned the clearance two years ago. If there's anything new here, I'm sure the CMC will deal with it. Ms Palaszczuk also questioned the role of former LNP executive heavyweight turned senator-in-waiting Barry O'Sullivan. "Let's also not forget that Barry O'Sullivan ... is up to his neck in this as well," she said. Ms Palaszczuk said Queenslanders would "be shocked" by the government they had elected. ""All of this [alleged] plotting and scheming by the premier, the treasurer, the deputy premier, the LNP hierarchy all this plotting occurred at the height of the Queensland floods,"" she said. ""When people were concerned about their homes, they were concerned about feathering their own nest. "Well the chickens have come home to roost, and now we know the true facts and the premier has a lot of explaining to do.""
