Six new Green MPs will be at the party's first caucus meeting at Parliament after the election.
The Greens won 10.6% of the party vote which has given them 13 seats in Parliament.
[image:3928:half:right]Eugenie Sage, Jan Logie, Steffan Browning, Denise Roche, Holly Walker and Julie Anne Genter will join the seven returning MPs at the caucus, on Tuesday.
At No 6 on the party list, Eugenie Sage was pretty much a sure bet to get into Parliament.
With the increased number of MPs, she says, the party will be able to cover many more select committees.
While the party has yet to appoint its spokespeople, the former Canterbury regional councillor says her experience is in environmental and conservation issues, biosecurity, local government and RMA.
Jan Logie, No 9 on the party's list, was the development manager at the New Zealand Centre for Sustainable Cities and an assistant to the former Green MP, Sue Bradford.
Another new face, Julie Anne Genter, was a transport consultant and has worked as a transport advisor to the Greens in Parliament.
As well as getting accustomed to life at Parliament, the new MPs will be part of the making the decision on what kind of deal the Greens will have with the National Party.
Prime Minister John Key says any agreement is likely to be based on policy rather than confidence and supply.
During the last term of Parliament the Greens and National held a Memorandum of Understanding, and worked together on policies like the home insulation scheme and the national cycleway.
While it's likely the two parties will have a similar agreement again, co-leader Metiria Turei says it might be more difficult to find areas of common ground with National this time round, though there may well be some.

Greens will be able to do better job, says former leader
Former co-leader Jeanette Fitzsimons says the Green Party will probably have to battle with the National-led government on decreasing the use of fossil fuels and stemming the high rate of child poverty.
She says the party will be able to spread the workload better, so each MP can concentrate on fewer portfolios and giving more time to properly challenge policies the Greens do not agree with and support ones they do.
Ms Fitzsimons says the party will be able do a much better job in Parliament and to have someone at every select committee which means they will be able to consider all the legislation that goes through the Parliament.
