RSL NSW leaders resigned over conflict-of-interest allegations, sparking calls for reform.
RSL NSW President Mick Bainbridge and board member Paul James resigned minutes before a vote on their removal, citing governance and transparency concerns after an internal investigation found potential breaches of conflict-of-interest policies and the code of conduct.
Their resignations were joined by two other board members.
The probe followed allegations, including claims that Bainbridge and James failed to disclose a legal conflict while co-owning a firm that represented a former RSL Lifecare volunteer in a lawsuit against the organization.
Legal advice indicated possible disciplinary action.
Both men deny wrongdoing.
The developments come amid controversy over a draft bill James helped draft that would allow central control of sub-branch assets without consent.
The organization said the resignations present an opportunity to rebuild trust.
