On 21 January 1999, Aure took a leave of absence due to a minor heart attack, at which point Dagfinn Høybråten took over her duties as acting minister of Justice and the Police. Even though she made a full recovery, Aure eventually gave up on the prospect of returning to her position, and on 15 March she made her absence permanent by resignation. The ministry was taken over by Odd Einar Dørum. After this Aure returned to her position as mayor of Kristiansund, a position she had held also before her appointment to the ministry.
Aure died on 7 June 2023, at the age of 80.[1]
