The Conservative Party of British Columbia has formed a committee to oversee its leadership race.
The party said Vancouver-based lawyer and former Conservative Party of Canada president Scott Lamb will chair the committee.
“Our Province is at a crossroads and is desperately in need of new leadership to guide British Columbia out of the economic and political crises that the NDP government has created,” said Lamb in a statement on Saturday.
He said the committee is working on setting rules for the leadership contest and will announce an election as soon as possible.
No contestants have been officially confirmed in the race.
Surrey-White Rock MLA Trevor Halford is serving as interim leader. The party announced on Dec. 3 John Rustad had been removed as leader. Rustad announced a day later he had formally stepped down.
Other members of the leadership election organizing committee include Skeena MLA Claire Rattée and B.C. Conservative Party president Aisha Estey.
