Palestinian Prime Minister Ahmed Qurei has scrapped his proposed cabinet list and promised a fresh team after angry MPs threatened to vote him from office.
Almost all MPs who spoke in a stormy parliament session opposed a cabinet they said was stacked with members of the old guard tainted by corruption.
A new line-up of reform-minded technocrats will be presented on Wednesday, Mr Qurei told parliament.
MPs stressed the need to break with the legacy of late leader Yasser Arafat.
A cabinet of reformers could to pave the way for Mr Arafat’s successor, Mahmoud Abbas, to press ahead with a promised overhaul of the Palestinian Authority and peace efforts with Israel, correspondents said.
