NSW Transport Minister David Elliott will quit state politics next year, opting to pull out of a preselection race after his seat was abolished.
In a statement to his Linkedin page on Saturday evening, the transport, veterans and western Sydney minister cited factional reasons for not contesting the March election.
"With the abolition of my Baulkham Hills electorate and advice that I cannot be accommodated in the new seat of Castle Hill on factional grounds, I have today advised my community that I will not be recontesting the 2023 state election," Mr Elliott wrote.
