The opposition parties have been accused of politicising Kiri Allan's mental health crisis, but ACT's David Seymour says that's not the case.

MPs across the house have been debating Kiri Allan's resignation from Cabinet and her decision to not stand in the 2023 election.

Leader David Seymour says Kiri Allan has been subject to a tragic sequence of personal events- but Parliament still needs to address key issues.

"Unfortunately, things don't stop because of one tragic circumstance, we represent 5 million people who are paying the bills and we've got to stand up and reflect on where this Government is going."
