Tributes are flowing for former NSW Premier John Fahey, who has died at the age of 75. Fahey served as premier for three years, from 1992 to 1995, and later ran for federal politics. Bob Carr replaced Mr Fahey as premier in 1995 and remembers a "formidable opponent and a very decent one". "John Fahey was a small-L liberal. He was a progressive, and he was really committed to public service as he confirmed when he left state politics to put in some good solid work in federal politics." - Bob Carr
