In a letter from the chief operating officer of Townsville Hospital, Danielle Hornsby, Ms Vuga was told that section 44 of the constitution requires that a state public sector employee has to resign before contesting an election.

"I am seeking your immediate action to advise me of your resignation within seven days of receipt of this letter," Ms Hornsby wrote on December 17.
