The NSW Premier Chris Minns says reports that Independent MP Gareth Ward was let into parliament while partially clothed early on a Sunday morning was a 'major concern'.
Details have emerged of Independent NSW MP Gareth Ward turning up to state parliament partially clothed at 4am on a Sunday to retrieve spare keys to his nearby apartment.
News Corp has published details and grainy CCTV footage along with details of a report that Mr Ward arrived at parliament early on July 21 "wearing a t-shirt, underwear and socks" and with a gash on his head.Mr Ward declined to be interviewed but said in a statement that he was locked out of his property after "having been awoken and responding to a noise at the rear of my apartment".
"These are very serious facts and I think by common consensus far from appropriate in a workplace," he said. "We’ve all got a responsibility to uphold standards and behaviour inside that building even if it is at 4 o’clock in the morning," he said.
