Fairfax Media has today reported that the Queensland Liberal/National Party Government has appointed the wife of Shadow Treasurer, Joe Hockey to the board of the superannuation fund covering Queensland public servants — Qsuper.

Hockey's wife, a former Deutsche Bank executive which the report described as a "self-made millionaire", will receive a $45,000 fee for filling the trustee director position.

The report said Queensland Treasurer Tim Nicholls had gazetted Ms Babbage's appointment in mid-June but had not publicly announced the move.

Babbage is a non-executive director of Swiss Re Life and Health Australia Ltd.
