The NSW Liberals are adding two extra women to their upper house ranks come the March election, which the premier says is a public policy win.

The party, criticised heavily for its poor track record on gender diversity by incumbent teal candidates, approved the plan of having two women run in the election in the upper house alongside Families Minister Natasha Maclaren-Jones.
