Labour Party President Andrew Little said that Labour would select a very strong candidate for the Mt Albert by-election on 13 June.

Mr Little said the Mt Albert by-election would be hard fought and it was critical that Labour had a strong candidate, selected through a fair and robust process.
"The eight candidates standing all have solid credentials to be an effective representative for Mount Albert and definite leadership potential," he said.
"The selected candidate will fight a well organised, determined campaign to hold Mt Albert, based on the local issues.
"Mt Albert is Labour heartland and its strong party organisation is a legacy of Helen Clark's immense contribution to Labour.
"Labour will select its candidate on Sunday 3 May in Mt Albert," he said.
