A departmental probe into NSW coalition frontbencher John Sidoti's property interests is expected to report back within a week, Premier Gladys Berejiklian says.
Berejiklian this week announced a review into the property interests of the embattled MP, conducted by Department of Premier and Cabinet Secretary Tim Reardon.

But she stopped short of referring Sidoti to ICAC over his property dealings, something Labor leader Jodi McKay labelled a "cop out".
McKay subsequently asked that the watchdog investigate "potentially corrupt behaviour" by Sidoti.
The premier on Friday said she anticipated Reardon's report would be submitted sometime next week, and expected it to be thorough.
"What's important is for the public to maintain integrity and confidence in the process of government ... Mr Sidoti is hard-working, he's told me he's done nothing wrong," Ms Berejiklian told 2GB Radio.
"I anticipate (the report) will come back some time next week."
