A massive amount of interesting info is crunched into this link:

I just heard Jane Paterson On Radionz say that James Shaw is not in Cabinet. I didn’t know that – I was going happily along as an ignorant twit, imagining that as a essential Coalition Partner he would automatically be there.
(In a split leadership role, I guess that the Green Party would have to nominate who to be there. I would certainly want James rather than the impassioned Marama.) But how terrible that Labour has NZ First there with Winston and had not included James and his appropriate Portfolio. I feel stupid – another belief and assumption about the NZ left has turned out to be wrong.
Greywarbler,
Thanks for that info, I had the same misconceptions. And feel the same disappointment. (I’d be fine if it was Marama.)
In researching it now, I found this document gives some background: NZLP and GP Confidence and Supply Agreement
