Greg Fleming

Elected in 2023, Greg serves on the Māori Affairs Committee and as Deputy Chair of the Petitions Committee. He has also been a leading voice in the fight against modern slavery. In 2026, in an unprecedented use of Parliament’s members’ bill process, Greg worked alongside MP Camilla Belich to co-sponsor a new Modern Slavery Bill. The Bill would require certain organisations to report on how they identify, address and mitigate modern slavery within their operations and supply chains.

With support from both major parties, the Bill bypassed the usual ballot process and was introduced directly to Parliament — the first time a members’ bill has secured sufficient cross-party backing to do so. The legislation reflects Greg’s commitment building principled, bipartisan solutions to serious national challenges.

Born in Masterton, Greg completed a Bachelor of Commerce at Victoria University and qualified as a Chartered Accountant. He began his career in London finance before returning to New Zealand. He is also a student of te reo Māori.

Over 25 years, Greg has helped build community institutions, including The Parenting Place, the Aspiring Leaders Forum, Te Whakaora Tangata, the Maxim Institute, the Venn Foundation, and most recently Te Wānanga Ihorangi. He as seen firsthand that real progress comes through local solutions, local relationships, and local leadership.

Greg and his wife Kirstin have raised their five children in Maungakiekie. He enjoys running up Maungakiekie/One Tree Hill and can often be found collecting stray cricket, tennis, and golf balls after his children.
