The Greens say they're in the "concluding stages" of their talks with Labour on a governing arrangement.

The parties met for their third round of talks in the Prime Minister's office this afternoon. While a final deal hasn't yet been reached, co-leaders Marama Davidson and James Shaw say they're on track for hammering something out by the end of the week.

Both were staying tight-lipped about what's being discussed, but say the deal they put to members will be one they believe is worth supporting.
