The outgoing chair of the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) James Shipton has confirmed retaining a phalanx of senior lawyers to defend his position in the face of the issues raised last year by the Australian National Audit Office (ANAO) about payment for his personal tax advice.
