Hook

Politicians, bureaucrats, and their associates — the decision-makers whose public footprint runs through this data.

Key Numbers

  • Register of Interests disclosures [parliamentary]
  • Project and contract connections [BP4]
  • Public statements logged [Hansard + media]
  • Ego-network graph per subject [derived]

Context

"Subject" is deliberately neutral. It doesn't mean suspect. It means "a person whose public-record footprint intersects with Victorian infrastructure decision-making or delivery". MPs, ministers, senior public servants, board members, named associates — anyone whose public role puts them in the flow of decisions.

Each subject has a profile: their bio, their declared interests from the parliamentary register, their public statements on record, their connections to projects we track, and an ego-network graph of their public relationships. The right of reply applies — any subject can request factual corrections, and we make them.

Takeaway

Decisions about billions in public money are made by people. This is who those people are, based on what they have disclosed.

Share Stat

Every decision-maker in Victorian infrastructure, with their disclosed interests, statements, and public connections.

Initiated knife crime framework — now consulting for major donor Pratt
As Premier, Andrews initiated the knife crime legislative framework that led to the Allan government's machete ban. Post-resignation, Andrews was hired as a consultant by Anthony Pratt (Visy) at ~$100K/year. Pratt is Australia's largest political donor ($11M+ over a decade to both major parties). Scott Morrison was hired on similar terms. The $42.5M Coolaroo recycling facility involved Victorian government co-investment during Andrews' premiership. This illustrates the revolving door between Victorian politics and major donors.

Controversy (from Wikipedia)
Daniel Michael Andrews (born 6 July 1972) is an Australian former politician who served as the 48th premier of Victoria from 2014 to 2023 and the leader of the Victorian Labor Party from 2010 to 2023. He was the member of the Legislative Assembly (MP) for the district of Mulgrave from 2002 to 2023. Andrews is the longest-serving Labor premier and the fourth-longest-serving premier in Victorian state history. Andrews entered the Bracks Ministry in 2006, serving as the Minister for Consumer Affairs. The following year, he was later appointed Minister for Health in the Brumby Ministry until the defeat of the government at the 2010 election by Ted Baillieu. Whilst in opposition, Andrews was elected Leader of the Labor Party in Victoria, and became Leader of the Opposition. After one term in opposition, Andrews led Labor to victory in the 2014 election. He was sworn in Premier in December of that year. He led his party to an increased majority of eight seats in the lower house during the 2018 election, and to a third landslide victory at the 2022 election again increasing the party's majority in the house. Significant historical events during Andrews's time as premier included the 2019–20 Australian bushfire season and the COVID-19 pandemic. Andrews has been described as "the dominant political figure of his generation in Victoria, with considerable influence nationally". Major accomplishments of his government included the Big Build infrastructure projects, rental law reforms, vo

Notes

Born 6 July 1972, Melbourne. Educated Monash University (BA), RMIT (grad dip business). Worked as electorate officer to Alan Griffin MP before entering Victorian Parliament as Member for Mulgrave in 2002. Became Leader of the Opposition in 2010 after defeating the Baillieu government. Won the 2014 state election, re-elected 2018 with increased majority, re-elected 2022. Resigned 27 September 2023 — the longest-serving Victorian Labor Premier. His tenure is defined by the Big Build infrastructure program ($100B+ in commitments), the longest COVID lockdowns in the world (262 days), the hotel quarantine failure (801 deaths), the Red Shirts scandal, and the CFMEU corruption that pervaded his Big Build worksites. Victoria's net debt grew from $22.3B (2014) to $171.4B projected (2027-28) — a 669% increase. He left office before the full consequences of his decisions became undeniable.
