He's expected to announce the sweeping number of 26 00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:21,280 Speaker 2: tariffs to address what he calls unfair trade. US retailers 27 00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:25,000 Speaker 2: and consumers say they're nervous are waiting today's announcements. 28 00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:27,760 Speaker 3: Everyone from people who are buying cars are looking to 29 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:30,720 Speaker 3: buy a car already started doing so early because they're 30 00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:34,360 Speaker 3: anticipating tariffs on automobiles coming into the United States. We 31 00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 3: also know that the US Federal Reserve has already said 32 00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:41,480 Speaker 3: that there are some industries, namely lumberd that have preemptively 33 00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:45,920 Speaker 3: raised their prices in anticipation for whatever these tariffs will be. 34 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:50,360 Speaker 2: Meanwhile, UK Prime Minister Yas Damus is he rules nothing 35 00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:54,000 Speaker 2: out and he is preparing for all eventualities. 36 00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:57,880 Speaker 4: We're taking a calm, pragmatic approach and keeping our feet. 37 00:01:58,000 --> 00:01:58,720 Speaker 5: On the ground. 38 00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:01,400 Speaker 4: But it is important that moment like this that we 39 00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:02,800 Speaker 4: don't have to knee jerk. 40 00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:04,880 Speaker 6: Reactions, that we are actually. 41 00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:07,520 Speaker 7: Cool headed about this and that's why we won't rule 42 00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:08,560 Speaker 7: anything out. 43 00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:10,680 Speaker 2: And in case you forgot about it, there's some conflict 44 00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:13,400 Speaker 2: around the world, and we'll go to the Israel Gaza war. 45 00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:17,840 Speaker 2: At least nineteen Palestinians, including nine children, were killed in 46 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:21,240 Speaker 2: a strike on a UN clinic sheltering displaced families in 47 00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:24,680 Speaker 2: the northern town of Jabalia. The Israeli military seed it 48 00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:28,679 Speaker 2: targeted hamas terrorists they reckon they were hiding there. Israel's 49 00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:32,639 Speaker 2: defense minister says it's expanding its military offensive and planning 50 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 2: to seize large areas of the Palestinian territory. 51 00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:39,800 Speaker 8: He's saying that large areas of Gaza will be seized 52 00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:44,160 Speaker 8: and added to what Israel calls it security zones, and 53 00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:48,840 Speaker 8: warned that this will involve large scale evacuations of the population. 54 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 8: Already we had seen this week. The UN says one 55 00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:55,680 Speaker 8: hundred and forty thousand people being told to. 56 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 2: Flee, and finally some said news for top gun fans 57 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:03,760 Speaker 2: to Valkia Batman has died at the age of sixty five. 58 00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:07,560 Speaker 2: His daughter Mercedes told US media that Kilma died of 59 00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:11,280 Speaker 2: pneumonia in Los Angeles. She said her father had been 60 00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:14,280 Speaker 2: diagnosed with throat cancer in twenty fourteen, but later recovered 61 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:17,320 Speaker 2: that the pneumonia got him and Van Kilma played fan 62 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:21,160 Speaker 2: favorite iceman in the original Top Gun and reprise the 63 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:22,520 Speaker 2: role for Top Gun. Maverick. 64 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:25,720 Speaker 8: Yup with this one, Maverick, just to walk in the park. 65 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:29,079 Speaker 2: Kazansky, you guys really are cowboys. What's your problem? Kazanski, 66 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:33,240 Speaker 2: You're everyone's problem. 67 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:34,760 Speaker 1: That's because every time you go. 68 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:36,040 Speaker 9: Up in the air, you're unsafe. 69 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 8: I don't like you because you're dangerous. 70 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:44,000 Speaker 10: That's right, nice man, I am dangerous. 71 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 2: You are still dangerous. You could be my wingman anytime. 72 00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 2: Val Kilma Magnificent lips ten out to five. 73 00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 1: Get ahead of the headlines early edition. Andrew Dickens and 74 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:05,880 Speaker 1: One Room, Make your Property search simple news. 75 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 2: Talk said the Goodbrding. I'm Andrew Dickens and for Ryan Bridge. 76 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:11,200 Speaker 2: Have you ever wondered whether, in fact we're doing it 77 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 2: harder than we need to? I was really surprised yesterday 78 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:16,279 Speaker 2: at the level of reaction to the decision not to 79 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:20,719 Speaker 2: publicly fund the American Cup campaign. Many questioning that why 80 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:23,479 Speaker 2: are we turning down a golden opportunity? Why are we 81 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:26,680 Speaker 2: not taking the chance to stimulate the tourism and hospitality sector. 82 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:29,160 Speaker 2: I know that Team New Zealand have always been either 83 00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:33,080 Speaker 2: overly glorified or overly vilified in this country. The haters 84 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:36,120 Speaker 2: have never understood any public investment in what they call 85 00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 2: a niche rich man sporting event, and that is partly true, 86 00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 2: and they question whether we would have the sort of 87 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 2: economic benefit Barcelona claims more than two billion heroes. We are, 88 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:49,320 Speaker 2: after all, at the end of the world, unlike Barcelona. 89 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 2: But others, of course say the GST from the challenges 90 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,560 Speaker 2: being based here would pay for the investment in itself, 91 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:57,080 Speaker 2: and then in bound tourism would be the cream on top. 92 00:04:57,120 --> 00:05:01,160 Speaker 2: But the reason I'm mentioning yesterday's story is what it 93 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:03,360 Speaker 2: says about our economy and the way we're approaching it 94 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:06,039 Speaker 2: and the way the government is managing it. They have 95 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:08,560 Speaker 2: a very simplistic fiscal policy that I think we all 96 00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:11,800 Speaker 2: understand these days. Reduce all the government spending and then 97 00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:15,480 Speaker 2: reduce the debt. What they've started to reduce the spending. However, 98 00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 2: the debt keeps ballooning and the ripples of their austerity 99 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 2: are flowing through the entire economy. There have been warnings 100 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:27,960 Speaker 2: a couple of weeks ago that the wholesale cancellation of 101 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:32,160 Speaker 2: government construction contracts has put the whole sector in a 102 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 2: very fragile situation. It's not good if you're in construction. 103 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:37,640 Speaker 2: The troubles in the health sector in Nelson and Wanaka 104 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:42,120 Speaker 2: highlighted this week, shows what sinking lids cause. And remember 105 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:45,880 Speaker 2: that every public service cut affects three other jobs in 106 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 2: the economy downstream. So you can argue that the government's 107 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 2: position is making the recessionary environment linger longer than it 108 00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 2: needs to. And remember that every job slashed and the 109 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:02,159 Speaker 2: tough times is tax revenue lost, forcing the government to 110 00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:06,000 Speaker 2: borrow more. Christopher Luxon is a businessman, and he knows 111 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 2: that investment is still necessary even in tough times, or 112 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:12,400 Speaker 2: else you go backwards, or when the good times return, 113 00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:15,240 Speaker 2: you find you well behind the game. Now, seventy five 114 00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:18,040 Speaker 2: million dollars, as pointed out by Mike Hosking to me yesterday, 115 00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:22,640 Speaker 2: seventy five million would be two million a month over 116 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:25,599 Speaker 2: the duration of the America's Cup campaign. Can we not 117 00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 2: afford that? If New Zealand can't afford that, then what 118 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:33,479 Speaker 2: hope have we going forward? Are we doing it harder 119 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:37,599 Speaker 2: than we need to? Thirteen minutes after five, this week's 120 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:39,920 Speaker 2: must read, as Richard Preble's opinion piece on our proposed 121 00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:42,880 Speaker 2: four year terms. All parties have voted for it so far. 122 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:46,400 Speaker 2: One aspect Richard doesn't like is the opposition having majorities 123 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:49,360 Speaker 2: in select committees, which would turn them into kangaroo courts. 124 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 2: But his main beef is that it won't make governments 125 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:55,919 Speaker 2: any more effective. He quotes Parkinson's law that says work 126 00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:59,240 Speaker 2: conforms to deadlines. In other words, governments will do just 127 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,119 Speaker 2: as much work in three years as they would in four. 128 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:07,880 Speaker 2: He reckons rather than making governments more effective in implementing 129 00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:12,600 Speaker 2: their programs, it will actually slow things down. And it's 130 00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:14,480 Speaker 2: easy on first glance to think about the four year 131 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 2: term and think it would make governments more confident in 132 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:21,440 Speaker 2: enacting their beliefs. But then on closer inspection would they 133 00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:24,800 Speaker 2: Why would they? As well? Remember politicians are in it 134 00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:27,720 Speaker 2: for the power, but also for the job and the money, 135 00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:30,520 Speaker 2: which is why they want longer terms. And then Richard 136 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 2: finished by saying four years is great for a good government, 137 00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:36,000 Speaker 2: but terrible if there's a bad one. It was a 138 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 2: great piece. It was enough for me to reassess the 139 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:40,760 Speaker 2: whole idea. You should read it. It's on the Herald 140 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:47,800 Speaker 2: dot co dot NZ, the Andrew Dickens Liberation Day. It's 141 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 2: got to be the title of a blockbuster movie, hasn't it. 142 00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:53,520 Speaker 2: That is Today in America. We're there.

Yeah, 152 00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 2: that was just an example. My real question is are 153 00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 2: we are we putting our head in the sand and 154 00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:23,040 Speaker 2: are we avoiding any investment that actually may pay off? 155 00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:25,160 Speaker 2: What do you think at ninety two ninety two, it 156 00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:29,120 Speaker 2: is seventeen minutes after five.

President Trump has set to start dishing out 165 00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:52,680 Speaker 2: a number of tariffs about nine o'clock our time, to 166 00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:55,840 Speaker 2: address what he calls unfair trade with other countries. US 167 00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:59,400 Speaker 2: retailers say that nervous the European Union threatens a robust 168 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 2: and calibrated response.

There's obviously lots of concern about 177 00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:25,680 Speaker 11: a trade war, but it's been on and off and 178 00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:30,160 Speaker 11: on again. So we're going to see what the announcements 179 00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:33,720 Speaker 11: are today. I think there have been reports that they're 180 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:34,600 Speaker 11: still fine tuning. 181 00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:37,640 Speaker 2: Is there a realization of makes the American public that 182 00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 2: an awful lot of stuff is suddenly going to cost 183 00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:40,240 Speaker 2: an awful lot more. 184 00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:46,600 Speaker 11: I think that that is starting to hit, particularly in Iowa. 185 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:50,840 Speaker 11: In Iowa there is it's a very small state, but 186 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:55,080 Speaker 11: it does a lot of agricultural exports and also John 187 00:09:55,160 --> 00:10:00,880 Speaker 11: Deere manufacturing exports, and people are I think very because 188 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:04,880 Speaker 11: if you export. You care about other people's markets, So 189 00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 11: it's going to be higher prices for us, but also 190 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 11: some tough times for our firms who export prison. 191 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:16,320 Speaker 2: Trump says he's doing this for the American workers. So 192 00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:19,880 Speaker 2: what has been the representatives of the American workers reactions 193 00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:20,600 Speaker 2: side the unions? 194 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:26,720 Speaker 11: It is interesting that I think that there's so much 195 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:31,840 Speaker 11: uncertainty that, you know, economists are sort of uniformly concerned 196 00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:35,840 Speaker 11: about trade wars because we know how damaging they are, 197 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:40,080 Speaker 11: but I think there is a lot of wait and see. 198 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:44,439 Speaker 11: Right now, there are trade problems, there's no question about that. 199 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:49,000 Speaker 11: The question is what's the most effective way to resolve 200 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:54,480 Speaker 11: those problems? And so it's it's been surprising and concerning, 201 00:10:54,520 --> 00:11:00,320 Speaker 11: particularly in the United States with Canada. Canada is young 202 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:06,040 Speaker 11: ally and neighbor and so there are concerns about things 203 00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:10,320 Speaker 11: like we get eighty percent of our aluminum from Canada, 204 00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 11: and to raise those prices. That's an intermediate good that 205 00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:19,560 Speaker 11: our firms used to produce, and I think many of 206 00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:22,320 Speaker 11: our firms are concerned about that. But there's been so 207 00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:25,360 Speaker 11: much back and forth. Yet we're going to do something, 208 00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 11: We're going to wait a month, We're going to do 209 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:30,440 Speaker 11: something else. We're going to wait a month that not 210 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:31,880 Speaker 11: that much has happened yet. 211 00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:34,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, sures, we're all wanting some Suresey, and we'll find 212 00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:36,360 Speaker 2: that out at nine o'clock this morning. Of course, the 213 00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:38,959 Speaker 2: rest of the world is still embracing globalism, but America 214 00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 2: is now an outlier as it looks inward. Is your 215 00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 2: American economy strong enough to stand alone? 216 00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 11: Well, I certainly hope that we will continue being a 217 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:54,520 Speaker 11: part of the trading community. The others' economy has been strong, 218 00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:59,880 Speaker 11: it probably could endure a lot of this pain. The 219 00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:02,960 Speaker 11: problem is this is just going to be pure pain, 220 00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,360 Speaker 11: and the President has not yet made a case for 221 00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:09,080 Speaker 11: why this is the most effective way to do this. 222 00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:15,440 Speaker 11: There are certainly bilateral issues with China. There are certainly 223 00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:20,920 Speaker 11: issues about defense sharing with Europe. Those issues are real, 224 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:24,840 Speaker 11: but starting a trade war as a way to solve 225 00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:28,760 Speaker 11: them is certainly something that concerns most economists. 226 00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,760 Speaker 2: And Villamel, who is an economist professor at the University 227 00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:34,640 Speaker 2: of Iowa, and I thank you so much for your time. 228 00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:37,679 Speaker 2: Takes three Andrew, if we had four year terms, that 229 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:40,120 Speaker 2: would mean labor would still be in power. Who doesn't 230 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:42,520 Speaker 2: bear thinking about salesman. It takes it very good. Ever 231 00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:45,600 Speaker 2: being stung by a cowboy builder. Ever had a leaky 232 00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:47,640 Speaker 2: building because some guy just didn't know how to do things? 233 00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:50,040 Speaker 2: Ever paid a cashi and then had a building full 234 00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 2: down on you? Well, this government wants to get stuck 235 00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:56,480 Speaker 2: into the cowboy builders. How I'll tell you more about 236 00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 2: that in a moment. 237 00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:01,800 Speaker 1: Andrew dickens All avilion issue with one room, make your 238 00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 1: property search simple, youth dog zibby. 239 00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:06,640 Speaker 2: All right, We've got a slew of new government changes 240 00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:10,360 Speaker 2: which will hold cowboy builders more responsible for poor quality work. 241 00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 2: Minister Chris Pink hopes that strengthening the Licensed Building Practices 242 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:20,000 Speaker 2: Registrar will ease concerned about plans so lect builders self certify. 243 00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:20,400 Speaker 8: So. 244 00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:23,400 Speaker 2: John Tucki is professor at the Auckard University of Technology. 245 00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:26,360 Speaker 2: He specializes in construction management. He's got up early for 246 00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:26,679 Speaker 2: us OLLO. 247 00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:28,240 Speaker 5: John morning. 248 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:31,800 Speaker 2: This is an international problem that has been discussed for years. 249 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:33,760 Speaker 2: Why hasn't it been sorted out before? 250 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:38,920 Speaker 13: Because in times when the cost of building goes up, 251 00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:41,920 Speaker 13: then it just becomes very convenient to go for a 252 00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:45,400 Speaker 13: chief option, and that chief option is usually somebody who's 253 00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:47,840 Speaker 13: not going to necessarily do all the detail work that 254 00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:50,320 Speaker 13: you need and it looks shoddy accordingly. 255 00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:53,760 Speaker 2: Okay, so let's have a look at yesterday's announcement. And 256 00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:55,720 Speaker 2: remember we're kind of first in the world and this 257 00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:57,800 Speaker 2: sort of thing. Is it a step in the right 258 00:13:57,840 --> 00:13:59,400 Speaker 2: direction or is it window dressing? 259 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:02,960 Speaker 13: No, just step in the right direction. I mean, if 260 00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:04,400 Speaker 13: we're going to go down the road. 261 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:08,160 Speaker 10: Of self certification for building works, which is perfectly reasonable, 262 00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:11,040 Speaker 10: it's you know, we we assume a car is built 263 00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:13,400 Speaker 10: correctly as a for instance, you know, we don't get 264 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:15,280 Speaker 10: a certification of an individual. 265 00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:21,480 Speaker 2: You know, Oh, John, we need to get a builder 266 00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:24,840 Speaker 2: in to fix up your phone, and John has fallen off, 267 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:28,600 Speaker 2: so we'll leave this at some point. Of course, you've 268 00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:32,080 Speaker 2: probably experienced less than ideal construction work at some point 269 00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 2: or another. So if a builder is offering a cashy, 270 00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:40,560 Speaker 2: John reckons that they're already untrustworthy. He warns against the 271 00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:43,080 Speaker 2: illusion of a good deal. He knows that things are 272 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:45,920 Speaker 2: getting more expensive right now in New Zealand, so if 273 00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:50,040 Speaker 2: it looks too good to be true, it probably isn't true. 274 00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:52,680 Speaker 2: It is five twenty five News Talks. 275 00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:58,480 Speaker 1: ITB the early edition full show podcast on iHeartRadio How 276 00:14:58,520 --> 00:14:59,280 Speaker 1: It By News. 277 00:14:59,120 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 5: Talks It B. 278 00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:02,920 Speaker 2: This Will c B. I'm Andrew Dickinson for Ryan Bridge. 279 00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:05,200 Speaker 2: Thank you for your text offering a cashi to fix 280 00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:10,480 Speaker 2: John Tuki's phone. Okay, the comedian Jimmy Barr, Jimmy Carr, 281 00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:13,680 Speaker 2: excuse me. Jimmy Carr is coming back to New Zealand 282 00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:16,920 Speaker 2: for a nationwide tour that culminates at Auchland Spark Arena. 283 00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:19,560 Speaker 2: These are big hauls he's playing and he can fill 284 00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:22,560 Speaker 2: them because he's that good. The show is called Jimmy 285 00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:28,000 Speaker 2: Carr Laughs funny, and he does. It's so true. That's 286 00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:31,400 Speaker 2: what makes that funny, and that is Jimmy's thing. It's 287 00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:34,080 Speaker 2: very easy to lump comedians like Jimmy and Ricky Gervas 288 00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:38,080 Speaker 2: and America's Bill Maher into a conservative label simply because 289 00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:41,040 Speaker 2: much of what they say is politically incorrect. But what 290 00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:45,360 Speaker 2: makes them funny is that it's true. They point out 291 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:49,360 Speaker 2: the hilarity of our tribal positions, both left and right. 292 00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:51,840 Speaker 2: So at the moment, I'm reading Bill Maher's book, What 293 00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:56,000 Speaker 2: This Comedian Said will Shock You. It's a collection of 294 00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 2: his best monologues over a year now. I used to 295 00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:01,200 Speaker 2: think he was quite right wing when I watched his show, 296 00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:04,920 Speaker 2: but that was because he was merciless against the Biden administration. 297 00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:08,280 Speaker 2: Now that Trump is in power, he's equally merciless. And 298 00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:11,000 Speaker 2: I like that. I like that he's telling the truth. 299 00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:15,840 Speaker 2: I like his pithy observation that conservatives govern without shame 300 00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:20,360 Speaker 2: and liberal shame without governing. That's true in America, that's 301 00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:23,240 Speaker 2: true here. Both sides are as bad as each other. 302 00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:25,400 Speaker 2: And he says that is why the world is so 303 00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:27,200 Speaker 2: full of people who want to break the shit up. 304 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:32,880 Speaker 2: I like all these comedians because they bring logic to 305 00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:35,840 Speaker 2: the fight. They're neither left nor right. They just look 306 00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 2: at what it is and laughs at it, unlike politicians 307 00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:41,960 Speaker 2: who will bring whatever might score them votes and the 308 00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:44,840 Speaker 2: media who will say anything that will get them clicks, 309 00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:48,960 Speaker 2: which pay the bills. Andrew Dickens five twenty nine. Michael 310 00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:51,040 Speaker 2: from Kohen Muhrama has sent me a text saying the 311 00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:53,720 Speaker 2: government spent millions on inviting investors from around the world 312 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:56,880 Speaker 2: to an economic summit a few weeks ago to encourage investment, 313 00:16:57,160 --> 00:16:59,240 Speaker 2: but the government can't come up with two million dollars 314 00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:01,720 Speaker 2: a month to invest in an America's Cup defense that 315 00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:04,040 Speaker 2: will highlight New Zealand to the world show the world, 316 00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:07,000 Speaker 2: our ability to develop high technology bring millions of dollars 317 00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:10,920 Speaker 2: into the country. He finishes his text, which is long 318 00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:15,919 Speaker 2: fair to say, by saying show some leadership and invest 319 00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:18,160 Speaker 2: in this country. And that's his message to the government. 320 00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:20,159 Speaker 2: Right on the way.

So if there 507 00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:18,320 Speaker 9: was ever a question whether Tesla's brutal few months has 508 00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:20,440 Speaker 9: been based on him involved with the White House, I 509 00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:21,639 Speaker 9: think we have our answer. 510 00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:23,240 Speaker 2: Yes, indeed, And of course the other side will say 511 00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:25,800 Speaker 2: boycott's and vandalism work, but we don't want to hear 512 00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:28,520 Speaker 2: that sort of thing. Now, we've been talking about Liberation 513 00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:30,360 Speaker 2: Day now for a couple of days and now it's 514 00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:32,320 Speaker 2: coming nine o'clock out time, so that's in about three 515 00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:34,640 Speaker 2: hours time. We've already talked about this this hour. What's 516 00:26:34,680 --> 00:26:35,320 Speaker 2: your take on it? 517 00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:37,960 Speaker 9: Yeah, this is going to be an interesting one, and 518 00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:39,720 Speaker 9: I think one of the biggest things we're looking at 519 00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:42,119 Speaker 9: is what's going to happen, because there have simply been 520 00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:44,520 Speaker 9: no leaks that have really come from the White House 521 00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:48,160 Speaker 9: giving a clear indication of what's going to happen here 522 00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:50,560 Speaker 9: and which countries are going to be affected. Donald Trump 523 00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:54,040 Speaker 9: has given some hint that he might be going easier 524 00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:56,119 Speaker 9: than he was first going to. There's a lot of 525 00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:58,760 Speaker 9: volatility in the US stock market at the moment. Donald 526 00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:02,200 Speaker 9: Trump is someone that watches the markets very closely, and 527 00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:04,320 Speaker 9: it's interesting to know this is going to happen at 528 00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:07,600 Speaker 9: four o'clock local time here on the East Coast, which 529 00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:09,680 Speaker 9: is actually when the markets closed, so that would have 530 00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:12,720 Speaker 9: been done on purpose, I can imagine. But really I 531 00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:15,320 Speaker 9: think it's interesting to note that we have had no leaks. 532 00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:17,800 Speaker 9: It's very unknown what's going to happen at the stage 533 00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:18,960 Speaker 9: and who's going to be affected. 534 00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:20,920 Speaker 2: Hey, match, I thank you so very very much. And 535 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:22,439 Speaker 2: of course, as soon as it happens, you will hear 536 00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:24,480 Speaker 2: about it right here on News talalksz B. It is 537 00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:30,000 Speaker 2: twelve minutes to six Drew Dickens. So cast your mind 538 00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:33,359 Speaker 2: back to the last government, remember the Access and Choice 539 00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:35,760 Speaker 2: program that was set up in twenty nineteen, where the 540 00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:38,120 Speaker 2: report has now been released on how it's going. It's 541 00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:40,960 Speaker 2: been five years, it's found obviously we've still got stuff 542 00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:42,480 Speaker 2: to work on. It was set up back in twenty 543 00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:45,199 Speaker 2: nineteen as part of the so called well Being budget. 544 00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:48,639 Speaker 2: It was allocated six hundred and sixty four million dollars 545 00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:51,399 Speaker 2: for five years and then two hundred and nine million 546 00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:53,800 Speaker 2: per anim after that. So the Minister for Mental Health 547 00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:55,400 Speaker 2: is now in charge of the whole thing is Matt 548 00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:57,040 Speaker 2: Doocy and he joins me. Now good oneing to you 549 00:27:57,160 --> 00:28:00,960 Speaker 2: Matt only Andrew, can you qualify the differences between now 550 00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:03,480 Speaker 2: and five years ago after the introduction of this program? 551 00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:04,560 Speaker 2: Are we better? 552 00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:06,160 Speaker 8: Yeah? 553 00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:08,159 Speaker 7: I think when you look at the data from the 554 00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:12,240 Speaker 7: report released today from the Mental Health Commission, we've seen 555 00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:15,640 Speaker 7: a significant rollout of the Access and Choice program within 556 00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:20,160 Speaker 7: GP practices across the country where there is disappointment has 557 00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:24,080 Speaker 7: significantly missed its target. It's only delivered to about two 558 00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:27,760 Speaker 7: thirds of the three hundred and twenty five thousand people 559 00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:28,600 Speaker 7: that the goal. 560 00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:32,440 Speaker 5: Was to serve. I've always been of the view that part. 561 00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:34,880 Speaker 7: Of the issue we've seen in mental health is we've 562 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:39,480 Speaker 7: always talked lofty goals, but we've done very poorly an implementation. 563 00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:42,720 Speaker 7: And that's why this government was keen to have its 564 00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:46,000 Speaker 7: first mental health minister. So we're focused on ensuring that 565 00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:49,640 Speaker 7: that service has rolled out properly and according to its target. 566 00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:51,360 Speaker 2: Well, we'll just look at that. So the goal was 567 00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:54,640 Speaker 2: to have psychological health services available to seventy percent of 568 00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:57,600 Speaker 2: those enrolled with general practices, so you had sixty eight percent. 569 00:28:58,040 --> 00:29:00,800 Speaker 2: So the services are pretty much there into the targets. 570 00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:02,920 Speaker 2: But you hope to hit a goal of three hundred 571 00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:05,120 Speaker 2: and twenty five thousand people getting the services a year. 572 00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:07,719 Speaker 2: You hit two hundred and seven thousand, which is why 573 00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:10,479 Speaker 2: you say two thirds. So where's the problem of education 574 00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:12,720 Speaker 2: and people are not realizing that the services are there 575 00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:13,320 Speaker 2: to be used. 576 00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:16,280 Speaker 5: I think that's partly true, Andrew. 577 00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:19,440 Speaker 7: When you look at the annual Health Survey people reporting 578 00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:23,080 Speaker 7: um mental health needs, a third of them are reporting 579 00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:24,560 Speaker 7: that they didn't know where to go. 580 00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:26,959 Speaker 5: But I think there's another thing happening here. 581 00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:31,000 Speaker 7: It's a run utilization of the access and Choice workforce. 582 00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:35,320 Speaker 7: In opposition, I was supportive of the model, but also 583 00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:39,000 Speaker 7: critical it does have an achilles heel where the warm 584 00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:42,720 Speaker 7: handover and a GP practice is a good model for 585 00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:46,320 Speaker 7: ensuring someone gets that timely support, but it does mean 586 00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:51,320 Speaker 7: at times and some practices that workforce is sitting there underutilized. 587 00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:54,520 Speaker 7: So look, I'll welcome the report from the Mental Health Commission. 588 00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:56,760 Speaker 7: I talked with him when I first came in that 589 00:29:56,840 --> 00:29:59,840 Speaker 7: we needed to do the five year review looking for 590 00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:02,840 Speaker 7: I think part of the solution is going to be 591 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:07,960 Speaker 7: digitizing the accessant Choice program, shifting online so that'll able 592 00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:11,640 Speaker 7: the staff to have high utilization rates and see more people. 593 00:30:11,720 --> 00:30:13,080 Speaker 2: And it may have something to do with the fact 594 00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:14,760 Speaker 2: that GPS are so wildly overworked. 595 00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:19,440 Speaker 7: Well, this is a step service. It's actually funded directly 596 00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:20,320 Speaker 7: from the government. 597 00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:22,200 Speaker 2: No, but it goes through the GPS. They then have 598 00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:24,000 Speaker 2: to refer they've got a fifteen minute when theow but 599 00:30:24,080 --> 00:30:25,400 Speaker 2: there we go, look, hey what not? 600 00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:28,400 Speaker 7: That's not necessarily true, Andrew, and that actually came out 601 00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:32,080 Speaker 7: in the report. What they're core calling this variation in 602 00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:33,720 Speaker 7: the service and the pathways. 603 00:30:33,840 --> 00:30:35,200 Speaker 5: So people don't. 604 00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:37,720 Speaker 7: Actually need to see the GP to be referred to 605 00:30:37,840 --> 00:30:41,640 Speaker 7: the service. That is happening in some services, So addressing 606 00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:44,440 Speaker 7: the variation, people can be seen straight by the service 607 00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:45,800 Speaker 7: without going through the GPS. 608 00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:48,160 Speaker 2: And that's good and that's good, and that requires education 609 00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:50,160 Speaker 2: and those people who are suffering need to know that 610 00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:52,880 Speaker 2: it's there. But of course that's suffering. Hey, so what's next? 611 00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:55,040 Speaker 2: You know, the first change of funding the six hundred 612 00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:57,719 Speaker 2: and sixty four million dollars fully committed, fully spent. Then 613 00:30:57,760 --> 00:30:59,160 Speaker 2: they said there was going to be two hundred and 614 00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:02,040 Speaker 2: nine million dollars a year available going forward. Is that 615 00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:02,840 Speaker 2: still available? 616 00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:05,680 Speaker 5: Yes, that funding is still available. 617 00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:08,600 Speaker 7: It's part of the Protected Ring Fence for Mental health 618 00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:09,120 Speaker 7: and addiction. 619 00:31:09,320 --> 00:31:12,960 Speaker 5: Funding this year will spend two point six billion. So 620 00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:14,000 Speaker 5: what I want to see is. 621 00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:17,000 Speaker 7: That program rolled out further. We want to hit its 622 00:31:17,080 --> 00:31:19,800 Speaker 7: target of seeing three hundred and twenty five thousand people. 623 00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:23,000 Speaker 7: Not only that, one of my first targets I've set 624 00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:26,080 Speaker 7: five targets for mental health, first time in New Zealand 625 00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:28,680 Speaker 7: would have mental health targets is for people to be 626 00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:31,240 Speaker 7: seen within one week of the service. 627 00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:33,640 Speaker 5: So I want more people to be seen and seen 628 00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:35,480 Speaker 5: quicker Matt, good. 629 00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:36,680 Speaker 2: Luck and I thank you so much for your time 630 00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:39,560 Speaker 2: today Matt Doucy, who is the Minister for Mental Health. 631 00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:43,640 Speaker 2: The report says that the psychological distress in this country 632 00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:47,560 Speaker 2: has increased markedly over the past five years, and they 633 00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:50,840 Speaker 2: urge that the program needs to be sustained. They want 634 00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:55,400 Speaker 2: more enhanced productivity, extended coverage and improved data collection. 635 00:31:56,920 --> 00:31:57,160 Speaker 5: Use it. 636 00:31:57,160 --> 00:32:00,760 Speaker 2: It's there to be used and taxpayers invested in it 637 00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:02,440 Speaker 2: for you. It is seven to six. 638 00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:06,200 Speaker 1: The first word on the News of the Day early 639 00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:10,000 Speaker 1: edition with Andrew Dickens and One Room, Make your Property 640 00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:11,080 Speaker 1: search and simple. 641 00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:14,120 Speaker 2: You talk zippy by the word from Lee Andrew. Why 642 00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:15,880 Speaker 2: did the Malori Party get away with so much and 643 00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:17,920 Speaker 2: keep resetting the rules to suit them. I don't believe 644 00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:19,800 Speaker 2: any other party would be able to do the same 645 00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:22,600 Speaker 2: mate as a stunt, and that's what the Malori Party 646 00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:24,240 Speaker 2: seem to like to do. They like to do sunts. 647 00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:26,760 Speaker 2: I don't think they have any interesting actually governing and 648 00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:28,800 Speaker 2: that is a problem for Labor if they ever want 649 00:32:28,840 --> 00:32:30,840 Speaker 2: to make a coalition with them, which I think was 650 00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:31,959 Speaker 2: the subject of Mike Hoskis. 651 00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:35,560 Speaker 6: Indeed it was and got proven yesterday mentioned them. I 652 00:32:35,600 --> 00:32:37,920 Speaker 6: wandered on to a Mariah and said, oh, what do 653 00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:39,960 Speaker 6: you mean of these silly little rules with your si? 654 00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:42,120 Speaker 6: Imagine if I said that I'm going to sit on 655 00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:44,880 Speaker 6: a table exactly, and that woman over there can say 656 00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:47,200 Speaker 6: whatever she likes.
