Todd Barclay is still working, he's just not fronting up to the media.

This from Acting Prime Minister Paula Bennett despite the Clutha Southland MP, barely being sighted since his fall from grace.

He is no long seeking a second term following the controversy surrounding his falling out with his electorate staff.

Paula Bennett told Larry Williams Mr Barclay is not on garden leave.

"He is still doing his constituency work and his advocacy for his electorate. I'm sure he'll turn up at some stage in the next few weeks. He's working with the whip over that, but he just hasn't been fronting the media and I don't really blame him."
