A male NSW Government MP allegedly raped a prostitute at a secluded bush lookout after paying her $200 for oral sex, another politician has claimed.
Labor MP Trish Doyle told parliament on Wednesday that the sex worker told her she did not consent to penetrative sex but was forced into it.
The woman made contact with her local MP Ms Doyle 18 months ago following an encounter with the man on adult classifieds website Locanto at the time in September 2019.
Ms Doyle says the woman and the man arranged to meet at a secluded Blue Mountains lookout while he was on his way home from Sydney.
The Blue Mountains MP used parliamentary privilege to allege the explosive claims against a male MP in the Berejiklian government.
She claimed the woman was ‘assaulted in my electorate’ by a ‘government member of this chamber’.

‘It was an assault, and it was against her explicit instructions. She did not consent. It was rape. This assault has had terrible consequences for the woman’s mental health and wellbeing,’ Ms Doyle told state parliament on Wednesday.
‘This fear of hurt and anger is not something any woman should be made to feel, but it is all the worse that this man who raped her was a government member of this chamber.
‘His power and his privileged position as a civic leader make that fear, anger and hurt all the worse the abuse of power and privilege to harass, coerce and assault women in the home in the street in their workplace must stop perpetrators must be held accountable.’
The woman has since reported the alleged incident to police, which confirmed on Wednesday night that it’s investigating.
Ms Doyle claims the woman was initially reluctant to go to police as ‘she did not trust the processes available’ but decided to come forward 12 months later after getting advice from the Sex Workers Outreach Project.

Ms Doyle said the woman had responded to an advertisement on a personals classifieds site seeking a specific sex service.
“She had been clear with her client from the outset about what she was willing to do with him, and what she was unwilling to do,’ Ms Doyle told parliament.
‘She tells me she made herself clear that she was not willing to have penetrative sex with him, however towards the end the man moved around behind her and assaulted her in a way she had not consented to.
‘In her emails to me she said that once the assault began she just wanted it to finish. It was an assault, and it was against her explicit instructions, she did not consent, it was rape.’
The explosive allegations were aired while parliament was sitting at NSW Parliament House (pictured) late Wednesday afternoon
Ms Doyle said the woman is ‘hurt and angry this powerful man felt entitled to assault her’.
‘She remains fearful that this powerful man will seek reprisals against her for reporting this rape,’ she added.
NSW Police has confirmed detectives from the Child Abuse and Sex Crimes Squad are investigating allegations of sexual violence against a woman in the Blue Mountains in September 2019.
‘The matter was reported and referred to the squad in late September 2020 and has been under investigation since,’ a statement read.
‘As the inquiries are ongoing, we are not in a position to provide any further details.’
