Former Liberal leader Sussan Ley has confirmed she will resign from parliament, after losing the Liberal leadership ballot.
She secured 17 votes in today's special Liberal party room meeting, while Angus Taylor secured 34 votes.
Ms Ley said she respected the decision made by the party room.
She thanked the colleagues who supported her and said she had "no hard feelings" for those who didn't support her.
Ms Ley said she will spend the next few weeks speaking with voters in her electorate before handing her resignation to the Speaker.
"It is important that the leader gets clean air … more important than ever," she said.
In her statement to the media, Ms Ley expressed her "gratitude to the Liberal party".
"There is no doubt it has been a challenging time to lead the party after we suffered the worst defeat in 81 years," she said.
"It has been tough, at times very tough."
