The Government isn't going to remove Dame Jenny Shipley as the chair of Genesis Energy.

Labour is calling for her to be stood down now she's the subject of legal action being taken by the liquidators of failed construction company Mainzeal, a firm she was formerly a director of.

A spokesperson for Finance Minister Bill English claims they haven't seen anything that would require the action Labour is suggesting.

The Minister's office says all directors are expected to discharge their duties to a high standard, and with regard to the Genesis board their view is they've performed well.
