Former CFMEU boss John Setka has been referred to police after making a defiant appearance at a second government Big Build site in just 24 hours.
Premier Jacinta Allan confirmed Setka had accessed the taxpayer-funded Metro Tunnel project on Thursday morning.
He had already given an expletive-laden address to a rally at Footscray Hospital on Wednesday.
Allan said on Thursday she had been told his presence on the sites was unlawful and the director-general of the transport department had referred the matter to police for investigation.
“There is no place on Victorian Big Build worksites for John Setka,” Allan said.
“He was stood down from the union as he should have, and there is no place for him on our work sites.
“In terms of who attends work sites there are well-established processes here, and it is the government’s expectation that those building industry companies manage this process appropriately, which is clearly not what happened in these incidents over the last 24 hours.”
It is unclear which of the new metro tunnel stations Setka visited on Thursday morning.
