Summarised by Centrist
Green Party MP Darleen Tana has been absent for half of Parliament’s sitting days this year while still receiving her full salary.
She has been suspended since March 14 of this year over allegations of migrant exploitation relating to her husband’s e-bike company.
An investigation into the allegations is ongoing, with the Green Party attributing the delay to new information. Tana’s prolonged absence adds to the Green Party’s turbulent start to the year, which has included other controversies and a change in leadership.
