NSW Premier Dominic Perrottet described Bromhead as the “quintessential Nationals member”.
“Given his early career in health, it is fitting that Stephen’s great legacy can be seen in the major upgrades to health facilities he delivered for his community, among many other important achievements,” he said. “Stephen was a highly respected and valued member of parliament. In the party room and in the chamber, he always brought colour and life.
“While he was naturally a warm and welcoming person, as the Nationals’ whip Stephen made good use of the fearsome tenacity learned in his former career as a detective.”If you’d like to view this content, please adjust your

Imagine the delays to decision-making if anything that impacts on Aboriginal people ... needs the approval of the Voice or even consultation with the Voice in order to proceed?”
