Another Liberal cabinet minister will not reoffer in the next provincial election.
Justice Minister Mark Furey added his name to a list Friday that includes four other ministers, two Liberal MLAs and outgoing Premier Stephen McNeil.
Iain Rankin is scheduled to be sworn in as premier, along with his cabinet, on Tuesday. I have been fortunate to be part of a transformative government, and I am incredibly proud of the many accomplishments we have achieved together through hard work and perseverance, Furey said in a statement.
