The Labour Party has had another layer of experience peeled away following the retirement of its finance spokesperson Grant Robertson.
After a 15-year parliamentary career, including six years as finance minister and three as deputy prime minister, Robertson will quit politics next month to become vice chancellor at Otago University.
It means Labour now has just nine members of parliament who were in the 20-strong cabinet formed after their 2020 election win.
Party leader Chris Hipkins spoke to Corin Dann.
