EDMONTON - Former Alberta premier Alison Redford has returned to the legislature for the first time since she quit the top job more than a month ago.

But she declined to talk to reporters about issues that arose after she left, including her plan while premier to have taxpayers build her and her daughter a lavish penthouse suite atop of a government building.

She said her representatives have already conveyed her perspective on the story and she sees nothing to gain by commenting further.

Asked what went wrong for her as premier, Redford said she doesn't know if she'll spend much time reflecting on that.

Asked if she will stay on as a member of the legislature, she said she sees no reason not to.

But when asked if she will run again in 2016, she declined comment.

Redford stepped down as premier on March 23rd, ahead of a reported caucus revolt over opulent spending on herself and her inner circle.
