The thoughts of the entire Government are with our colleague and our friend Prue Car as she begins treatment following her breast cancer diagnosis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I know Prue well. She is a fighter, and I know she will face this challenge with the same determination and grace that she brings to everything she does.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I fully support her decision to take the time she needs to focus on her health and recovery, and I know she will be supported by expert care and the love of her family, friends, and colleagues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I also echo her important message about early detection and encourage everyone to stay on top of their health checks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I have asked Courtney Houssos to act as the Minister for Education and Early Learning and the Minister for Western Sydney until Prue returns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Prue remains as the Deputy Premier of NSW, as we look forward to welcoming her back when she\u2019s ready.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
