In a surprise move, Melissa Lee has been booted from Cabinet and stripped of the Media portfolio, and Penny Simmonds has lost the Disability Issues portfolio in a reshuffle.

Simmonds was a minister outside of Cabinet.

Prime Minister Christopher Luxon said Justice Minister Paul Goldsmith would take over the Media and Broadcasting role, while Social Development Minister Louise Upston would pick up Disability Issues.
