"It's been an absolute honour and privilege to represent the people of Wollongong for the last 13 years in the NSW parliament," Ms Hay said in a statement on Tuesday.
"I will make no further comments at this stage until I have delivered my valedictory speech in the parliament on Thursday the fourth of August at 4.30pm.
"I'd ask that the media respect the privacy of my family at this time".
Ms Hay was stood down as Labor Party whip in May following revelations one of her female staffers had been charged with electoral fraud by Australian Federal Police.
