"Since releasing our statement last night,we have received confirmation that further concessions will be forthcoming in relation to the amendments to the abortion bill.
"On that basis,I have called the Premier this morning and advised her that we will withdraw the spill motion to continue negotiations prior to the debate commencing in the upper house later today."
Earlier,NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian waved to reporters as she left her home and said “the numbers will speak for themselves” when asked if she had a message for the rebel MPs who brought on the spill.
Attorney-General Mark Speakman predicted the spill was"going to be a bit of a fizzer"while Families and Communities Minister Gareth Ward 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,"Mr Ward told ABC radio.
The MPs released a statement at 8.30pm on Monday after they had been told that key amendments they wanted made to the controversial bill had been"rejected in full or in part".
