Labor’s Penny Sharpe suspended from upper house for a week

Labor's Penny Sharpe, the government's most senior upper house member, was suspended from NSW parliament for seven days Tuesday for failing to produce documents related to decade-old sexual harassment allegations against former Labor general secretary Jamie Clements, who denied the claims. The suspension is the longest in living memory and leaves the government short one vote in the chamber.
