Former Western Australian MP James Hayward sued the state government Monday, seeking $733,380 in lost salary and allowances after his disqualification from the Legislative Council following a 2023 child sex conviction. Hayward's conviction was later quashed with no retrial proceeding. He claims he was improperly disqualified and remains entitled to parliamentary remuneration through 2025.
