After days of allegations, the casino giant Crown Casino is set to face the nation's integrity agency.

Attorney General Christian Porter has asked the national integrity watchdog to investigate a number of claims which implicate some Government M-Ps. 

But critics have accused the Government of a cover up as both the Coalition and Opposition voted against a parliamentary inquiry into the matter.
