Premier Gladys Berejiklian is set for a leadership spill over the abortion bill. We'll be live-blogging the latest nswpol developments here:

Families and Communities Minister Gareth Ward has backed Ms Berejiklian, characterising the three MPs behind the spill motion as an "arrogant" fringe."The reality is that this is an attempt by people who want to hold the rest of parliament over a barrel because they're not getting their way on a particular issue," he told ABC radio.The spill motion to challenge Gladys Berejiklian will be put to the Liberal party room at 10am on Tuesday.

But no firm challenger has emerged, meaning the Premier could be facing off against an empty chair and relying on MPs to back her leadership. Attorney-General Mark Speakman, Police Minster David Elliot, Transport Minister Andrew Constance and Families and Communities Minister Gareth Ward joined Mr Perrottet in backing Ms Berejiklian."The party support is overwhelmingly for Gladys."

Attorney General Mark Speakman, pictured with the Premier, said the spill would be a"bit of a fizzer".
