Damien Tudehope says he chose to step down because he does not want his integrity, nor that of his party, to be the"subject of repeated political attacks" ahead of the state election on 25 March.
"At all times he has undertaken his responsibilities as a minister with the highest of standards," he said in the statement. "The events of the last 24 hours have provided an unnecessary distraction for the government at a time when the most important thing for the people of New South Wales is to be concentrating on the choice before them," he said in a statement.
"I say absolutely, categorically that in relation to any decision-making I have been involved in that it has been in the interest of the people of this state and never with an eye to any possible interest I may have."
My 'I am resigning in disgrace after my dodgy share portfolio was made public to avoid people questioning my integrity' t-shirt sure has people asking a lot of questions.
