The activities of the australian wheat board

Assignment Help Management Theories
Reference no: EM13300858

The activities of the Australian Wheat Board (AWB) were in the news almost every day during the first part of 2006. The scandal relates to the period after 1996 when the United Nations set up the oil-for-food program. Since the program was introduced, the AWB continued to sell wheat to Iraq. In early 2006 AWB was accused of paying kickbacks totalling $280 million to Saddam Hussein's regime using a Jordanian trucking company, Alia to disguise the payments. This would be violation of oil-for-food program.  Cole inquiry was set up to establish the truth of this claim. While the details are complicated and there is controversy about who knew what when, for the purposes of this assignment accept that it is true that the AWB did pay the kickbacks, that AWB senior management knew that this was what happened and in paying the kickbacks they violated the law. Also for the purpose of this assignment, focus only on the actions of AWB and ignore the role that government ministers may have played in the scandal.
