On 10 February 2022, Sarah Courtney resigned from the cabinet and parliament. A reshuffle was undertaken on 17 February 2022.[1] Roger Jaensch gained the education, skills and children and youth portfolios from Courtney, while Jane Howlett gained disability services and hospitality portfolios from Courtney, but losing the sports portfolio to Nic Street, who was elevated to the cabinet. Street also gained the heritage portfolio from Jaensch, community services and development from Deputy Premier Jeremy Rockliff and science and technology from Michael Ferguson.
