Several Liberals are hoping to fill outgoing NSW Customer Service Minister Victor Dominello's seat of Ryde when he retires at the next election.

Mr Dominello said the Premier was a “very compassionate human being” and denied he was deserting a sinking Liberal Party. “On behalf of the NSW government and the NSW Liberal Party, I thank Victor for his significant contribution to public life and our state.” “He has also overseen the transformation of Service NSW, which has fundamentally changed the way people interact with the NSW government, and helped them access support and save time and money,” Mr Perrottet said in a statement. The minister said he was “eternally grateful” to the Ryde community and promised to work tirelessly to support the election of a Liberal successor in the area. Mr Lane said Mr Dominello was a “true reformer” with a strong legacy in the community. Having held the role of NSW customer service minister during the time it was most desperately needed in the pandemic, Mr Dominello said his team “have laid the foundations for a successful future in the digital era”.
