Marama Davidson on Green party's role within Labour govt

From First Up, 5:52 am on 2 November 2020

To politics now where the Green Party has reached a cooperation agreement with Labour that gives both Greens leaders Ministerial portfolios outside of Cabinet. It means that the Greens will have to back the government over decisions made within their portfolios, but they're otherwise free to take a different position to Labour. James Shaw remains the Minister of Climate Change and will also become an Associate Minister for the Environment. Marama Davidson becomes the first ever Minister for the Prevention of Family and Sexual Violence and also Associate Housing Minister. She speaks with Nathan Rarere.
