  • Lesley Yeomans: Australian Correspondent on the outcome of the first debate of the Australian election

  • John Carran: Jarden Economist and Investment Strategist on today's OCR decision

    08/04/2025 Duración: 02min

    Economists are seemingly aligned on where they think today's Official Cash Rate figure will land.  The Reserve Bank's expected to cut the OCR by 25 basis points, down from 3.75 percent.  It's the first rate decision since Governor Adrian Orr's resignation.   Jarden Economist and Investment Strategist, John Carran told Andrew Dickens there's been a lot of uncertainty in markets from US President Donald Trump's tariffs.  He believes it's too early for the bank to panic and cut the OCR any further. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

  • Andrew Dickens: Children deserve better

    08/04/2025 Duración: 02min

    Oranga Tamariki is getting rid of its target to place 58% of the kids in its care with wider Whanau.   And it's also ditching a target for investment with Māori organisations - 23% of funding was targeted for those organisations.  The Minister for Children Karen Chhour says this is part of OT's 'Safety First' approach. She says the targets were outdated and went against the ‘need not race’ directive.   And she was concerned whether the priority of Māori organisations were getting in the way of the quality and efficacy of the services being provided.   And it all makes sense.  The ingrained belief in our child social workers that kids are always better off rehomed with whanau always seemed counter factual. In many cases the abuse directed at the kids was at the hands of whanau themselves - people that had been raised by other people in their family but failed at their own parenting. So why would we give the kids to them? It often seemed that children were being thrown right back i

  • Hayden Ricketts: Retired Lieutenant Colonel on the Government's new $12 billion defence spending plan

    07/04/2025 Duración: 03min

    A retired lieutenant can't see how a boost in defence funding will fill missing skills and trades.  New Zealand's injecting $12 billion into defence over four years – $9 billion of which is new spending.   It includes enhancing our strike capabilities, replacing the Boeing 757 fleet, and upgrading our javelin anti-tank missiles.  Retired Lieutenant Colonel Hayden Ricketts told Andrew Dickens the navy, army, and air force already have more vehicles than they can staff.  He says a commitment to spend more money on gear is great but without more personnel, the plan will fall apart.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

  • Boyd Swinburn: Health Coalition Aotearoa Co-Chair on calls to level the playing field, when it comes to lobbying

    07/04/2025 Duración: 03min

    A desire to level the playing field, when it comes to lobbying.  Health Coalition Aotearoa's pushing for stronger regulations alongside the Helen Clark Foundation and Transparency International.  They want a public register of lobbyist meetings, a cooling-off period to prevent ex-ministers immediately becoming lobbyists, and a lower limit forcing someone to disclose political donations.  Co-Chair, Boyd Swinburn says told Andrew Dickens those with vested interests are getting a bigger say on public policy, than groups pushing for positive social outcomes.  He says nothing wrong with balanced lobbying -- which gives policy for public good, not private good.   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

  • Andrew Dickens: Defence spending is necessary, but expensive

    07/04/2025 Duración: 01min

    The news that New Zealand is going to spend 12 billion dollars on defence is not news to welcome, and yet it is welcome news.  In an unsettled world, defence is essential. And the equation for a credible defence is spending 2 percent of GDP.  So now within 8 years we’ll get to that target - it’s a doubling.   The question is why we are only just doing this now. If we’d spent that for the past 30 years we would not be facing so dramatic a spend today.  But we didn’t. Fat and complacent in a mistaken belief that we were safe and sound, and if something went wrong our friends would come and save us.  For as long as I’ve been in the news business, Australia and the States have warned that coat tailing did not cut it and that we had to do our bit. So fair play to Judith Collins, she’s finally accepting the responsibility that we’ve always needed.  But it comes at a difficult time.  Firstly, the world has become more dangerous so time is of the essence. And secondly, we’re broke.&

  • Andrew Dickens: Treaty Principles Bill part two

    06/04/2025 Duración: 01min

    So it looks like the Treaty Principles Act is toast as Christopher Luxon assured us it would be.   Much was made over the weekend that 90 per cent of the submissions were against it.   But that means nothing if all the opposing submissions were just photocopies of one.  Māori are organised. Anyone who’s seen their multiple Hikoi's and the awesome organisation of the Kings Tangi should know that.   You underestimate Māori at your peril.    But it must also be noted that Act’s act was a simplistic dog. Much of it is already covered by the bill of rights.   At its heart it was three sentences designed to overthrow 50 years of legal development.  But is the movement against the treaty dead.   No, it is not. New Zealand first wants to have a crack.  And Winston Peters, being the experienced legislator, wants to amend the existing Treaty Principles legislation we already have.   He ran his election campaign on it. It's the smart way to achieve real change. 

  • Sirma Karapeeva: Meat Industry Association CEO on the impact of US tariffs on beef exports

    03/04/2025 Duración: 03min

    New Zealand exporters are in the firing line, as tariffs of at least 10% are now being imposed on almost all goods.  The US surpassed Australia as our second largest export destination for beef last year due to a sharp rise in meat exports.  There’s billions of dollars' worth of trade in the sector, as the United States is unable to meet their consumption demand with their domestic production.   Meat Industry Association CEO Sirma Karapeeva told Andrew Dickens we currently trade with a “nuisance tariff” of only a few cents, so this 10% is essentially imposing over 9.3% extra cost on exports.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

  • Vincent McAviney: UK Correspondent on the investigation into Prince Harry's charity

  • Malcolm Mulholland: Patient Voice Aotearoa Chair on the Government's health targets

    03/04/2025 Duración: 03min

    A health group says the Government's health targets don't tell the full story of the system.  Three of the five Government's targets are on track, but two are worse than the previous quarter.  Wait lists for elective treatments and a first specialist assessment have worsened, but child vaccination rates have improved, alongside cancer treatment times and ED stay lengths.  Patient Voice Aotearoa Chair Malcolm Mulholland told Andrew Dickens the ED wait time metric doesn't include walkouts.  He's aware of a case in Palmerston North where a patient walked out of its ED because it was overwhelmed, and died the following day.  He’s also doubting how cancer treatments are measured.  Mulholland told Andrew Dickens it looks at the time from the first appointment to first treatment, instead of diagnosis.  He says patients are waiting eight weeks or longer at Waikato, Christchurch, Wellington and Southland hospitals, and some outcomes have been lethal.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnys
