Peoples Alliance Party member Inosi Kuridrani has been sworn in as a Member of Parliament today.

This follows the passing of Vatimi Rayalu, which left his seat vacant.

He will deliver his maiden speech on Wednesday.

Kuridrani is a former SODELPA MP.

Land Transport Authority Board Secretary Daniel Vikash says Kuridrani tendered his resignation as Board Chair over the weekend.

When asked about reforms at LTA started under him, Kuridrani says they will continue and LTA just has to follow the strategic plan in place.

He says their budget to get drug testing equipment has been approved.
