Shadow Cabinet of Tony Leon information


The Shadow Cabinet of Tony Leon was announced on 23 August 2000 and became the Official Opposition Shadow Cabinet of the second democratic Parliament. It was formed as a joint multi-party opposition coalition under the aegis of the Democratic Alliance, which brought together the Democratic Party (DP, elected as the Official Opposition in 1999), the New National Party (NNP), and the smaller Federal Alliance (FA). Democratic Party leader Tony Leon, who led the shadow cabinet, said that the allied parties would no longer issue separate statements on parliamentary matters but would rely on the shadow ministers or spokespersons to speak on behalf of the Democratic Alliance.[1][2] Leon announced a reshuffle in March 2001.[3]
