THE NSW government is expected to announce that information that led to Richard Torbay's dumping as a federal Nationals candidate and his resignation from state parliament has been referred to the corruption watchdog.
The independent MP resigned from parliament on Wednesday, a day after the National Party dumped him as its candidate for the federal seat of New England.
His announcement ends a 14-year political career, with Mr Torbay saying the events of recent days had taken a toll on his family.
It was reported on Tuesday that Mr Torbay was helped into politics in 1999 by former Labor powerbroker Eddie Obeid, who is now at the centre of the largest corruption investigation in NSW history.
Fairfax media on Wednesday reported that information that led to Mr Torbay's dumping as a federal Nationals candidate and his resignation from the NSW parliament had been referred to the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC).
The government is tipped to make an announcement about the referral to ICAC on Wednesday.
An ICAC spokeswoman said in a brief statement that "the commission cannot confirm or deny if it has received information or referrals".
