Browning loses a portfolio

Stuff reports:

Green Party MP  Steffan Browning has been stripped of his natural products portfolio following this morning's party caucus meeting.

It follows Browning signing a petition last week encouraging the World Health Organisation to consider the use of homeopathic remedies to combat the pandemic.

Green co- Metiria Turei said the natural health products portfolio had been rolled into the health portfolio.

This meant Kevin Hague would become the party's spokesman on all issues relating to health.

“It is a clear signal to the country that the Green Party treats health matters based on evidence,” Turei said.

A smart move by the Greens, as Browning's actions have reinforced perceptions that they are anti-.

Of course Browning remains their spokesperson on Agriculture, Fisheries, Organics, , Forestry, Biosecurity & , and Security & Intelligence.
