There are no plans to introduce special rules for cabinet minister considering running for the leadership of the Yukon Liberal Party.
Cabinet ministers 2 – 1pm Wednesday
Yukon Premier Sandy Silver says he’s he doesn’t think he needs to put any special rules on his cabinet ministers who might be gunning to replace him.
“I have not decided to apply any additional rules to ministers and I’m very confident that anybody who’s seeking the leadership, whether that be current ministers or people that are not currently elected will do so with integrity.”
Both the Yukon Party and the Yukon NDP have been calling for extra controls to be put on cabinet ministers interested in the top job, but Silver rejected that on Tuesday.
Silver announced he will be retiring nearly a month ago.
His replacement will be chosen by a leadership convention or vote, but no details have been announced.
