National leader Chris Luxon has accused her of defying Cabinet during the vote to entrench part of the Three Waters legislation.
Political editor Barry Soper has observed that Nanaia Mahuta had written to all political parties to get their support for the Three Waters entrenchment proposal, despite the rest of Cabinet ruling against the entrenchment.
Barry Soper states that ministers are obligated to support any decisions that Cabinet makes, regardless of their own personal views.
