NSW Health Minister Brad Hazzard has responded to false claims from One Nation’s Mark Latham accusing him of taking mental health leave.

Brad Hazzard has taken mental health leave from his ministerial position.
After his recent performances at NSW Budget Estimates this is not surprising.
I hope receives the professional assistance he so clearly needs and makes a full recovery.

Mr Hazzard told Jim Wilson when he was told about the tweet, he wasn’t impressed.

“I think it’s just bizarre, I don’t know where he got the idea from.

“I don’t have mental health issues, all I have is a virus. I find that Mark Latham says some very strange things from time to time.”
