Newman to be sworn in as Qld premier

Campbell Newman is to be sworn in as Queensland premier, after the Liberal National Party was swept into power in Queensland at the weekend.

Mr Newman will be sworn in on Monday as part of an interim cabinet.

On Sunday he announced Jeff Seeney would be his deputy and minister for state development, and Tim Nicholls would be his treasurer.

The remaining cabinet positions will be announced as soon as possible.

The swearing-in will take place at Government House at a time to be confirmed.

The LNP won government in dramatic fashion on Saturday; it is expected to hold at least 76 seats in the 89-seat parliament.
