Under the Goss Ministry, he served in the Cabinet variously as Minister for Justice, Minister for Consumer Affairs (until 18 October 1993), Minister for Corrective Services (until 18 October 1993), and Minister for Administrative Services (from 18 October 1993).

He was first elected to the Assembly for the seat of Everton in the 1977 election, unseating Liberal incumbent Brian Lindsay. In 1992 he switched to the newly created seat of Ferny Grove where he remained till his retirement from politics.
