TV3 Political Editor Duncan Garner will continue to conduct political interviews on the programme.

Mr Plunket is a 25 year veteran of broadcast journalism and has been co-hosting the critically acclaimed Morning Report for 14 years.

He has worked in the Parliamentary Press Gallery and was a foundation staff member of 3 News in 1989. He has also worked for TVNZ on programmes such as "Holmes" and "Fair Go".

Mr Plunket also writes a monthly column for "Metro".

His role on "The Nation" will include a weekly interview which will range across a wide variety of subjects.
