New Tauranga-based list MP Jan Tinetti says her first day at Parliament yesterday was "incredibly busy" and her head was spinning by the end of it.
"It was exciting and stimulating and there's lots to learn. The people were incredibly helpful and were wanting to help and support with even the smallest of questions," she told the Bay of Plenty Times last night.
"I really, really loved it. Many of the new MPs thought it was like the first day of school. As I've had many first days of schools it was different for me - it was wonderful."
