It looks like there is more to come in this inquiry.
Ms Berejiklian attended a local invite only Liberal campaign event in the Shoalhaven, most likely to offer her support to the contesting liberal candidate, ex-member for Bega, Andrew Constance.
One local scoffed when told of the visit saying "There was no sign of Gareth Ward, Scott Morrison or Warren Mundine. Who are they going to roll out next? Peter Dutton, John Howard, maybe best mate Barilaro?"
