Associate Justice Minister Nicole McKee says the Police Association won't be left out of consultation on the firearms registry.

Association President Chris Cahill has penned an open letter asking for Nicole McKee's role in reviewing the law to be stripped and given to the Police Minister.

McKee says the association wasn't asked for early consultation but police were - she says they will get their chance down the track.

She says the claims that she was head of the firearms lobby in 2017 are off base.

"I've always been quite open and friendly towards them - but when somebody wants to make personal attacks against a person... I just think that's unnecessary."
