PUTRAJAYA: The Cabinet vacancy for the domestic trade and cost of living minister will only be filled when there is a suitable candidate, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said today.

The position has been vacant since the death of Datuk Salahuddin Ayub in July and had prompted rumours of a Cabinet reshuffle in recent weeks.
