SYDNEY, Dec 13 AAP - Incoming attorney-general Nicola Roxon says she can empathise
with her predecessor Robert McClelland not wanting to leave the job.

"I can completely understand ... to some extent I am torn too, I loved being the health
minister," she told reporters in Sydney on Tuesday.

"Everyone feels some sense of loss when there is still more to be done in a portfolio,"

Ms Roxon said.

She said Mr McClelland had done a "really good job" as Australia's top law maker and
that she was looking forward to stepping into the role.
