David Seymour appointed new Act leader
"Today the ACT Party Board announces with regret that it has accepted Jamie Whyte's resignation as Leader," said ACT
President John Thompson.
"Jamie has proven himself a principled and clear-headed advocate of ACT's values of smaller government and greater
personal responsibility. Under his leadership, the Party has been rejuvenated and membership has swelled.
"We are proud to have had Jamie serve as Leader, and hope the New Zealand public has not seen or heard the last of him.
“The ACT Party Board has appointed David Seymour, the ACT MP for Epsom, to succeed Jamie Whyte as the Leader of ACT.”
