Tim Mander

Tim Mander has faced two primary public controversies during his time as a minister in the Queensland government, both of which concluded without findings of wrongdoing or criminal charges. In May 2026, Mander stood aside from his cabinet position after the Australian Electoral Commission referred his electoral enrolment status to the Australian Federal Police regarding his use of a staff member's address. On July 16, 2026, the Australian Federal Police finalized the investigation and cleared him of any offence, stating that the allegations were false. He was subsequently reinstated as the Olympics Minister. Additionally, Mander and Minister Amanda Camm faced scrutiny regarding their personal relationship. Critics alleged they failed to properly declare a conflict of interest, citing claims that the relationship predated their cabinet appointments. Mander and Camm maintained that they complied with the Ministerial Code of Conduct, disclosed the relationship after it resumed in 2025, and followed integrity advice. No findings of misconduct or ethics violations have been reported.
