Mount Scio MHA Dale Kirby made it clear Wednesday he's not ready to answer questions about his behaviour as a cabinet minister and member of the Liberal caucus. He also hasn't responded to a claim that he lobbied Liberal MHAs to boycott an upcoming fundraising event for Harbour Grace-Port de Grave Liberal MHA Pam Parsons. He's not in my caucus (anymore)," replied one Liberal MHA when asked about Kirby's whereabouts. The seats assigned to now-independent MHAs Dale Kirby and Eddie Joyce remained empty Wednesday in the Newfoundland and Larador House of Assembly. Meanwhile, sources have told CBC News that Kirby was encouraging Liberal MHAs to boycott a May 17 fundraising event for Pam Parsons in Bay Roberts.
