Newman says rest of LNP MPs are loyal

QUEENSLAND Premier Campbell Newman has refused to say whether he's checking his MPs loyalties after one defected to Katter's Australian Party (KAP).

Veteran MP Ray Hopper, the member for the rural seat of Condamine, resigned from the Liberal National Party (LNP) on Saturday night to join the KAP.

Mr Newman says Monday afternoon's party room meeting will give all MPs a chance to discuss the matter.

"It'll give people an opportunity to express, no doubt their dismay about the way the member of Condamine has let down his people," he told reporters on Sunday.

But when asked if he'll be seeking loyalty pledges from MPs, he said: "My people are totally committed to getting the economy of Queensland going."

Opposition Leader Annastacia Palaszczuk said it's likely a lot of phone calls were being made.

"I think it's going to be a very interesting party room meeting," she said.

Mr Hopper said he left the LNP because it's not governing for regional communities and "is at war with itself".

Cabinet will also meet on Monday morning.
