House Speaker Trevor Mallard has given a rare tribute to a journalist – Newshub’s outgoing political editor Tova O’Brien.

“I want to acknowledge the media. I think they act with incredible integrity… probably with a couple of exceptions,” Mallard said in his final speech in Parliament for 2021.

“I do want to acknowledge Tova O’Brien leaving.
