Parker breaks leg at Karitane home

New Zealand Labour Party politician David Parker is in Dunedin Hospital after breaking his leg in Karitane late last week.
The 63-year-old former attorney-general, minister for the environment, minister of transport and associate minister of finance, was dismantling a veranda at his holiday home when he fell and broke his leg.

His press secretary said Mr Parker was expected to be out of hospital in a few days.
