Senator Fraser Anning used taxpayer funds to fly to a private business meeting in Adelaide last year in a bid to avert bankruptcy proceedings that could have ended his parliamentary career.

The use of public funds raises further concerns about Senator Anning's conduct, which has been under scrutiny since he claimed flights to attend a far-right rally in the Melbourne beachside suburb of St Kilda in January this year.

The 69-year-old senator billed taxpayers $1005 to fly from Canberra to Adelaide on November 30 last year, before claiming a further $1,343.32 to fly to Brisbane on the same day. The trip also included $335 for a government car and driver in Canberra, Adelaide and Brisbane.

The Age and The Sydney Morning Herald can reveal Senator Anning met with staff from the Bendigo and Adelaide Bank to discuss a significant debt he owed its subsidiary ABL Nominees Pty Ltd from a failed agribusiness investment.
