In 1981 he was elected as a Councillor of the City of Cessnock.[1] Political careerHe was Minister for Mineral Resources from April 2003 to August 2005, and was Minister for Local Government between 2005 and 2007.[1] On 7 November 2006, he admitted to having been fined four times in recent years for speeding:[2]
The Premier, Morris Iemma resisted calls to sack him as result. He was quoted as saying: I'm disappointed that it happened. Like any other motorist, no one is above the law, whether you are a minister, a member of Parliament or a member of the general public. He has apologised, I've accepted that. Is it a sackable offence? No, but I am very disappointed that it has happened. He's suffering public humiliation as a result.[2] In an interview with the Newcastle Herald, published on 10 July 2010, Hickey claimed that he was not the father of a child born in February 2009 to an unnamed parliamentary staff member.[3] A month later, on further questioning by the media, Hickey admitted that he had lied about his relationship with the parliamentary staff member and admitted that the 18-month-old child was his. In a dramatic day of lying about his relationship, Hickey initially decided to resign, but after speaking with the Premier Kristina Keneally, he issued a statement stating that he would be seeking re-election.[4] Hickey's initial claims were made in order to protect the mother's career and his family.[5] Under mounting political and personal pressure, on 6 September 2010 Hickey announced his decision to not seek re-election at the 2011 state election, citing personal reasons.[6] References1. ^1 2 {{cite web|title=The Hon.
