"We look forward to working with her on how to tap into the state's challenges and opportunities and contribute to the wellbeing of the people of New South Wales.

"We look forward to a productive relationship with the new Liberal leader.

"We wish outgoing NSW Liberal Leader Mark Speakman all the best and recognise his contribution to this state after 14 years in Parliament and the last three as the Leader of the Opposition.
