David Seymour is is taking questions from the media following the regular meeting of Cabinet.
The ACT leader, who took over as Deputy PM from Winston Peters this month, is in the hot seat as acting Prime Minister while Christopher Luxon is in Europe.
Cabinet met today after a two-week break, which included “scrutiny week” when MPs get to grill ministers about their departments and ministries.
The meeting came against the backdrop of war in the Middle East, with an RNZAF C-130 en route to the region to help evacuate Kiwis.
Luxon has also been in China where he met President Xi Jinping.
