VIC Premier
This afternoon I received new information about further allegations of persistent, inappropriate behaviour by the Member for South Barwon towards another member of staff.
After enquiries by my office, and in consultation with my colleagues, tonight I asked the Member for South Barwon to resign as a member of the Parliamentary Labor Party - and he has done so.
Following these new allegations it is now clear to me that there is no place for the Member for South Barwon in my government.
The wellbeing of staff and their right to a respectful workplace is not negotiable.
