Lying his arse off.

Former union boss John Maitland had a shaky first day at a NSW corruption inquiry being grilled about his allegedly close ties with a former mining minister and being caught lying about what he'd told another associate.

The former head of the Construction Forestry Mining and Energy Union (CFMEU) admitted he'd been caught out when a secret phone recording was played at Tuesday's hearing of the Independent Commission Against Corruption inquiry (ICAC).

In it, he is heard talking to his friend Archibald Tudehope about a private examination by ICAC.

Before the tape was played, the one-time mining union heavyweight was asked repeatedly whether he had ever lied to the inquiry and if he understood he must not discuss private evidence with others.

He said each time he had always been truthful.

"You were telling him in some detail what had been raised with you by me in that examination," ICAC lawyer Peter Braham said.

"It certainly appears so," Mr Maitland said.

"And you've lied about that fact this morning, haven't you?" Mr Braham asked.

Mr Maitland replied: "It appears so."

Those threads are about other crooks, crims and shysters in the ALP.

This is a different guy, although I realise it can get confusing when there is so many of them.
