It was not DAP's decision to drop Skudai assemblyperson Tan Hong Pin from the new Johor exco line-up, said party secretary-general Lim Guan Eng.
"It was not decided by DAP," he said when met by the media today in Putrajaya.
"That's all I want to say, it's not decided by DAP," he reiterated.
He maintained the same response when pressed on whether it was a state or federal decision.
"But we adhere to the decision by Johor," he said, declining to say if this meant a decision by the new menteri besar Dr Sahruddin Jamal.
Lim's stand differed from DAP organising secretary Anthony Loke's made at a separate event today.
Loke said it was a decision between "our leadership" and Johor Pakatan Harapan.
The Johor exco was reshuffled today with Tan and Bersatu's Mazlan Bujang being dropped from the line-up.
Sahruddin explained the decision by saying he wanted a cabinet he was comfortable working with.
Sahruddin takes over from Osman Sapian who stepped down from the menteri besar post just 11 months after Pakatan Harapan seized the state from BN in national elections.
When Johor's Sultan Ibrahim summoned Osman for a second audience before accepting his resignation, he had set a condition for the incoming menteri besar to revamp the existing state executive council lineup.
