In an unprecedented situation where Carr resigned both his current term and the following six-year term, the NSW Government sought legal advice regarding the tenure of O’Neill’s appointment, and discovered that it could only fill the current vacancy, and would have to wait until July to fill the future vacancy.

The joint sitting took just four minutes on 2 July 2014, and was attended by 13 lower house MPs and over 40 Legislative Councillors. The anticipated six-year term did not immediately eventuate due to a double dissolution of parliament in 2016.
