Early life and background


Kelly was educated at St Mary's Catholic School in Wellington, New South Wales and at St Stanislaus' College in Bathurst, New South Wales.[1] He undertook further studies in local government administration at Mitchell College of Advanced Education, now Charles Sturt University.


Kelly worked for 20 years with the Wellington Council.[1]



Political career


Kelly entered the Legislative Council in September 1987 and served until the 1988 election,[5] which his party lost. Kelly re-entered the Council in September 1997 and was re-elected at the 2003 and 2011 elections for eight-year terms; resigning from the Council with immediate effect on 6 June 2011.[6][7]


During his time in parliament, Kelly served as Minister Assisting the Minister for Natural Resources (Lands), 2003 to 2004; Minister for Local Government, 2003 to 2005; Minister for Emergency Services, 2003 to 2009; Minister for Rural Affairs, 2003 to 2008; Minister for Lands, 2004 to 2011; Minister Assisting the Minister for Natural Resources, 2005; Minister for Juvenile Justice, 2005 to 2008; Minister for Justice, 2005 to 2008; Minister for Police, 2008 to 2009; and Minister for Planning and Minister for Infrastructure, 2009 to 2011.[5]



Political controversy


On 20 June 2011, the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) announced[8] that it would hold a public inquiry into matters arising from the purchase of property at Currawong, Pittwater by the NSW Government. Concluding the investigation in mid-December, the ICAC found that Kelly engaged in corrupt conduct with respect to the purchase of the property by the NSW Government.[4] The ICAC found that Kelly, as the then Minister for Lands, authorised the purchase even though he knew he was not authorised to do so, and that he backdated a letter to before the caretaker period of government commenced,[9][10] knowing that it would be used by a public servant to falsely represent that written authority had been given to authorise the purchase.[3][11] The allegations generated significant publicity.[12][13] On release of the findings, the Labor Party immediately moved to terminate Kelly's membership.[2][14]
