ACT leader David Seymour is welcoming former broadcaster Paul Henry's expression of interest in joining up with the party.
Henry revealed this morning he'll be running as a list candidate for ACT, with Seymour promising he'll be placed at an electable position.
Henry stood for National in 1999, but is best known for hosting TVNZ's Breakfast in the mid-2000's.
Seymour says Henry is a 'serious and thoughtful' person outside of his public image, with genuine concerns about the country.
"We're thrilled to have him on board, both for his presence, his energy, his communication, his infectious enthusiasm, all of those things are awesome."
