Shearer for MFAT?

The Herald reports:

The State Services Commission is about to embark on a search for one of the most prestigious jobs in the public service – head of the Ministry of Foreign and Trade.

Chief executive is leaving to take the reins of the Board. The board is responsible for all racing and betting in .

He is likely to get a pay rise from the $600,000 he earns. The last chief executive of the Racing Board earned $960,000.

Maybe David Shearer should apply? Could do a lot more as Secretary of Foreign Affairs than ranked No 16 in Labour's caucus. He'd be good at the job also.
