The acting secretary of the NSW Cabinet Office has launched an "urgent examination" of state government development processes in the Hunter after Tim Crakanthorp's shock sacking and referral to the Independent Commission Against Corruption.
Premier Chris Minns forced Mr Crakanthorp to resign on Wednesday after the Newcastle MP allegedly failed to "promptly" disclose the extent of his extended family's "substantial" property holdings in Newcastle, including near the government's proposed Hunter Park redevelopment precinct.
