Former NSW minister Stokes had not been told about committee, its composition or terms of reference ahead of the public announcement, source says
Rob Stokes, the former NSW planning minister, won’t serve on the temporary committee of three to run the troubled NSW Liberal division.Rob Stokes, the former NSW planning minister, won’t serve on the temporary committee of three to run the troubled NSW Liberal division.The senior party figure refused the position after the federal team demanded the state executive appoint a temporary committee of three to run the troubled division which failed to nominate candidates for some NSW councils.
It came after the federal executive was briefed on the content of Brian Loughnane’s snap review of the NSW Liberals, which party sources told Guardian Australia was “scathing” about both the nomination failure and the preparedness to contest the federal election.But a Liberal source said on Wednesday morning Stokes had not been told about the committee, its composition or the terms of reference ahead of the public announcement.
The NSW opposition leader, Mark Speakman, welcomed Stone’s appointment but said he wanted a woman appointed as part of the committee.“The proposed appointees have significant experience, but I would welcome the inclusion of an experienced female in this crucial role.
