Subbies owed money in Du Val collapse companies 'barely survived'

From Checkpoint, 4:50 pm on 13 June 2025

Some subbies still owed money in the Du Val collapse have said their companies have barely survived and they doubt they'll ever see a cent. The Du Val property group of about 70 entities was put into statutory management by the government last year. At last count its debts were more than $300 million. One of the group's founders, Kenyon Clarke, has remained defiant as they head to the High Court on Monday, saying Du Val had the situation under control when that control was taken away.
