    A follow from today’s news:

    Last week Guide Dogs Victoria released a statement saying the board did not know about the political endorsement until it was made public and announced an investigation had been launched.

    A fresh statement from the charity said Ms Hayes had been stood down "following the distribution of political materials that included comments from the CEO purporting to be on behalf of Guide Dogs Victoria and publicly endorsing a political candidate".

    "The board had no knowledge of this and did not endorse it," the statement said.

    "The independent investigation is underway and is ongoing. The purpose of the investigation is to understand what happened and ensure it never happens again.

    "It would be inappropriate to comment further while the investigation is continuing."
