After being blindsided on 2GB radio, the premier has agreed to confront Jo Haylen about another allegation of her using a taxpayer funded driver to take her on a winery trip.
NSW Transport Minister Jo Haylen is fighting growing calls to resign after revelations she used a ministerial driver to take her to a winery lunch – before being accused of keeping quiet about another winery trip.
“I don’t know what you’re going to do if, as I’m informed, another example comes out …. that took her on another winery slash wine tasting trip last year,” Fordham said.“I’d be very concerned if there was another example,” Minns said. “Having spoken to her over the last couple of days, she fully acknowledges this was a shocker, a major mistake, and I believe when she says she’s not going to do it again … I think that there’s been a singular, a massive, but singular lapse here, and I think it was probably absent-minded of her, not malicious,” he said.
