Ms Cox describes Independence as an issue for "further down the line" if she takes over as Premier — possibly for her second term she hopes would begin in 2014.
"I support Independence," she said. "It's something the PLP is committed to. But I don't think it's going to be a front burner item right now, while we have jobs, the economy and crime as our main concerns.
"I don't think you will see it in the first term, although the level of conversation may start to increase towards the end."
