Prime Minister Chris Hipkins revealed his new outline for Cabinet in today's media briefing.

Jan Tinetti has become Minister for Education, Ayesha Verrall's taken over Health from Andrew Little, and Immigration and Transport Minister Michael Wood has also become Minister for Auckland.

Nanaia Mahuta has lost Local Government, and the job has gone to Kieran McAnulty instead.

Grant Robertson retained Finance and Willie Jackson kept Broadcasting and Media.

ZB's senior political correspondent Barry Soper says that it's unclear why Michael Wood has been promoted and got the Minister for Auckland role, considering how his policies have affected the region.
