Former ACT Senate candidate Anthony Pesec alleges in Supreme Court hearings that the managing director of Consolidated Builders received discounted shares.

Mr Zivko had been granted a series of 11 options to buy company shares between 2000 and 2007, some of which had been exercised.

There was also a concern that Mr Zivko had caused the shares to be issued to entities associated with him at"unreasonable values", the decision said. The judgment said Mr Pesec had informed the company of his concerns, and it had established a sub-committee to investigate the allegations.The decision said a director, who criticised Mr Pesec's conduct, was appointed to the sub-committee.

"I am satisfied that it is appropriate to exercise the court's discretion … to require the company to produce a number of documents as set out in the terms of the order," she wrote.
