NSW deputy premier John Barilaro has brushed off the concerns of an unidentified public servant that a $50,000 grant to an agricultural cooperative associated with federal MP Angus Taylor's family may be improper.

In question time on Thursday, Labor MP Yasmin Catley asked Barilaro: Dead set, deputy premier, is this a grant or a bribe?" referring to what the concerned public servant had written in a note to file.
