TORONTO — The Ontario Liberal Party has decided to reimburse taxpayers the $10,000 Peter Faist was allegedly paid to wipe government computers.
"To ensure no tax dollars are expended for work performed in the office of the former premier in relation to the matters currently under investigation by Ontario Provincial Police, the Ontario Liberal Party executive council voted (Monday) to cover the cost of a January 2013 invoice from Mr. Faist to the Liberal Caucus Service Bureau," Zita Astravas, a spokesman for Premier Kathleen Wynne, said in a statement Tuesday.
"The payment of these funds is in no way intended as a prejudgment or comment upon the findings of the ongoing police investigation — it is to ensure no tax dollars were expended for the work performed."
In recently released OPP search warrant documents, investigators report Faist told them he was contracted for $10,000 out of the taxpayer-funded Liberal caucus fund to erase computer hard drives.
Faist, through his lawyer, has denied all wrongdoing, and told police he was under the impression Cabinet Office was aware of his activities.
OPP are investigating whether government records were illegally destroyed in the office of former premier Dalton McGuinty in early 2013.
The allegations in the search warrant documents have not been proven in court.
