Multiple reports say pressure is increasing on the Western Australian premier to call for a royal commission into alleged corruption involving government projects associated with the “Big Build.” Both outlets focus on claims that corruption may have occurred in the delivery of state infrastructure and that the matter has become a political issue for the state government. The reports note that calls for an independent inquiry are intensifying as concerns are raised about how projects are planned, awarded, or overseen. While the articles describe the growing public and political momentum behind the demand for a royal commission, they do not present specific details about the allegations or name particular projects in the provided text. The coverage also frames the issue as heightened scrutiny on Labor leadership, with opponents and critics arguing that a formal inquiry is needed to examine the allegations and determine whether misconduct occurred. The premier’s response, including whether the government will act on the calls for a royal commission, is portrayed as central to the developing political debate.
