An under-fire minister has stood down from cabinet over a federal electoral enrolment probe, plunging a state government deeper into an integrity storm.
Queensland's Olympics Minister Tim Mander was already facing a political firestorm over his undeclared romance with cabinet colleague Amanda Camm.
The senior Liberal National Party figure has now been reported to the Australian Federal Police after enrolling to vote at a staffer's home amid the breakdown of his 40‑plus year marriage.
The Australian Electoral Commission confirmed it had referred the matter to federal police on Tuesday after being unable to find compelling proof he lived at the address where he was registered to vote.
Mr Mander told Premier David Crisafulli late on Thursday he would step down as minister while federal police decide whether to launch a full-blown probe.
