Crakanthorp was the Minister for Skills, TAFE and Tertiary Education, and the Minister for the Hunter in the NSW Minns ministry[5] before stepping down amid allegations of breaching the Ministerial Code of Conduct. Crakanthorp allegedly failed to disclose significant family land holdings in the Hunter and a potential conflict of interest between his public duties and private interests.[6]
