BARNABY JOYCE TO SELL PILLIGA PROPERTIES

Meanwhile, Barnaby Joyce has confirmed he will sell his two properties in the Pilliga forest, due to their proximity to coal seam gas exploration sites.

The parcels of land lie in the middle of an area near Narrabri that is under an exploration licence owned by Santos.

Mr Joyce paid half a million dollars for the two properties, the latest bought in 2008.

It comes after the Nationals candidate for the seat of New England was accused of having a conflict of interest due to his ownership of the properties.
