Liberals
BARRY O'FARRELL: Became premier in 2011 in a landslide victory for the coalition only for a $3000 bottle of wine to bring his tenure to an embarrassing end. He fell on his sword last April after giving misleading evidence to the ICAC about the 1959 Penfolds Grange Hermitage, which was apparently given to him by Liberal donor Nick Di Girolamo.
ROBYN PARKER: The former environment minister bows out after 12 years in parliament. One of the few coalition MPs to leave the ICAC witness box unscathed.
GREG SMITH: As attorney-general, Mr Smith was dubbed "Marshmallow Man" for being soft on crime. After initially being critical of the government's mandatory sentencing plans, he decided to support tough measures to combat alcohol-related violence. The about-face came to define his stint as attorney-general.
Suspended Liberals (Independents)
CHRIS HARTCHER: The former energy minister, who allegedly masterminded a plan to funnel illegal donations, announced in October 2014 he was retiring from politics.
CHRIS SPENCE: The ICAC is investigating whether Mr Spence's 2011 election campaign received illegal donations through an alleged slush fund. Stepped aside from the parliamentary Liberal Party in February 2014 and announced in June that he would not recontest his Central Coast seat.
DARREN WEBBER: The ICAC is investigating whether Mr Webber's 2011 election campaign received illegal donations through an alleged slush fund. Won't recontest Wyong on Saturday.
CRAIG BAUMANN: Failed to report $79,000 from two developer donors in his 2007 election funding disclosures but denied doing them any favours at the ICAC. Admitted to directing a "sham invoice" be issued from his company Valley Homes to one of the donors. The admissions forced him to join the cross bench and later withdraw from the election.
Nationals
DON PAGE: Just hours before his expected demotion as local government minister in April, the veteran MP announced he would not be recontesting his Ballina seat after 27 years in parliament. Mr Page is the grandson of former Prime Minister Sir Earle Page.
GEORGE SOURIS: Was demoted from the ministry by new premier Mike Baird in April and announced his retirement in September. Mr Souris will end a 27-year parliamentary career that included overseeing the controversial O'Farrell government laws targeting alcohol-fuelled violence.
ANDREW STONER: After serving as deputy premier for more than three years and Nationals leader for 11 years, Mr Stoner is quitting politics to support his wife Cathy, who is suffering from anxiety and depression.
JOHN WILLIAMS: The former Mildura car dealer has called it quits after two terms in office.
Labor
RICHARD AMERY: Has earned Father of the House title for being longest serving MP in parliament. Retiring after 31 years in state politics.
CHERIE BURTON: Entered parliament in 1999, went on to serve as housing and mental health minister. Retirement made way for rising Labor star Chris Minns.
BARRY COLLIER: Retiring for the second time. Came out of retirement in October 2013 to reclaim his old seat of Miranda.
ROBERT FUROLO: The former Canterbury mayor entered parliament in 2008, and was handed the shadow roads and ports portfolios in 2011. Quit the front bench a year later after fellow Labor MPs reportedly leaked damaging Facebook posts from Mr Furolo describing his honeymoon in Greece.
ANDREW MCDONALD: Former shadow health minister leaving politics after eight years in parliament.
BARBARA PERRY: Stepped aside to allow opposition leader Luke Foley to be parachuted into the safe western Sydney seat of Auburn.
NATHAN REES: One time garbo turned NSW premier will bring his eight-year parliamentary career to an end. In a turbulent period for Labor, Mr Rees took over from Morris Iemma as premier in September 2008 but was deposed 15 months later when he was rolled by Kristina Keneally.
CARMEL TEBBUTT: The Marrickville MP will end her 17-year career in state politics. In 2008, she became the first woman to hold the position of deputy premier of NSW. She held several portfolios, including health, environment and education during her career.
