Rob O'Regan

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Rob O'Regan is an Australian Barrister and former head of the Queensland Criminal Justice Commission. [1]

He is also known for his involvement with the Australian Red Cross, gaining the position of chairman in 2001.[1]

In 1998 he was asked by the Australian Cricket Board to head an inquiry into cricket corruption.[2] His report concluded that cricket players were not well informed about their responsibility to uphold the spirit of the game, and although he disagreed with the punishments given to Shane Warne and Mark Waugh in response to their dealings with "John the bookmaker," he ruled that they could not be punished twice over the incident.[3]
