Jason Walls: ZB political editor ahead of the Green Party confirming James Shaw's replacement - The Sunday Session with Francesca Rudkin

James Shaw's replacement as co-leader of the Green Party will be named this morning.

Shaw announced his resignation in January after nearly nine years at the helm - but will stay an MP to support one last piece of environmental legislation.

Newstalk ZB Political Editor Jason Walls says it will almost certainly be Auckland Central MP Chlöe Swarbrick.

He says her only challenger was activist Alex Foulkes, but he is outside Parliament.
