For building consent inspections, they 27 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:31,160 Speaker 4: currently have to be done in person, but the government 28 00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:35,480 Speaker 4: wants to make remote inspections.

The former master Builders TV 31 00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:45,039 Speaker 4: executive David Kelly has confidence in the move, saying there 32 00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:47,240 Speaker 4: are already some apps available. 33 00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:47,200 Speaker 5: To do it. 34 00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:52,440 Speaker 2: They have features that give some surety because the homeowners 35 00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 2: want to make sure that it's been done well and 36 00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:56,800 Speaker 2: the councils want to make sure it's done well. 37 00:01:57,440 --> 00:01:59,960 Speaker 4: New zellam First has taken to social media to ask 38 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:02,440 Speaker 4: if the inter Island a ferry at a Teddy ran 39 00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:06,200 Speaker 4: aground after being put on autopilot so that someone could 40 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 4: go and make a coffee and they were unable to 41 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,720 Speaker 4: turn it on when they returned to their seat. Kiwi 42 00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:16,520 Speaker 4: Rail Note hasn't denied this account, though they do say 43 00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:19,919 Speaker 4: that there are a regulated number of people on board 44 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:22,800 Speaker 4: at the bridge at the time of the grounding, and 45 00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:26,920 Speaker 4: Maritime New Zealand says conjecture is unhelpful while investigations are 46 00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:30,720 Speaker 4: taking place. Yet that is not a no from Kiwi Rail, 47 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:34,280 Speaker 4: I want to point out. And also, would someone make 48 00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:37,680 Speaker 4: the captain a coffee for goodness sex a report from 49 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:40,200 Speaker 4: the New Zealand Initiative. The think tank is proposing to 50 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:43,919 Speaker 4: replace the fuel excise duty system. It says a smart 51 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:46,520 Speaker 4: road user charge could distribute costs in a fair away 52 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:49,799 Speaker 4: and help reduce congestion. Under the proposal, vehicles would be 53 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 4: charged on actual road usage based on the time of 54 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:56,040 Speaker 4: day and the type of vehicle. The lead author, Matthew Virtual, 55 00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:58,519 Speaker 4: says the system would be rolled out over five years, 56 00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:00,240 Speaker 4: starting with new vehicles. 57 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 6: The costs that we pay are not linked to our 58 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:06,360 Speaker 6: road yere in a precise way, so shifting away from 59 00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 6: a blunt fuel tax towards the road user charge system 60 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:10,400 Speaker 6: makes sense. 61 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:13,359 Speaker 4: And you would have heard this in the news already 62 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:16,799 Speaker 4: with Andrew, but here we Tennis star Lulu Sun has 63 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 4: lost her quarterfinal match at Wimbledon against Croatias at Donna 64 00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:24,640 Speaker 4: becketch Son lost the three set battle five seven, six, 65 00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 4: four six one. I saw a good headline well, and 66 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:29,680 Speaker 4: wasn't a good headline for her, I suppose. But the 67 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:34,600 Speaker 4: headline was sun goes down at Wimbledon. It's just gone 68 00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 4: now nine minutes after five. 69 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 2: Ryan Bridge New for twenty twenty four on early edition 70 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:45,320 Speaker 2: with Smith City, New Zealand's furniture beds at a playing store. 71 00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:46,680 Speaker 1: News dog ZIB. 72 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:49,360 Speaker 4: Also happening overnight. Boeing can't seem to catch break. Remember 73 00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:52,360 Speaker 4: we spoke about them yesterday. The four hundred million dollar 74 00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 4: New Zealand million dollar fine that they received. They're almost 75 00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 4: too big to prosecute. I think Boeing, that's what we 76 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 4: got to the of the gist of what we got 77 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 4: to yesterday. Because of the seven three seven Max crashes 78 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:08,120 Speaker 4: that they experienced, they had a fine that they had 79 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 4: to pay. They were undergoing some monitoring from aviation authorities. 80 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 4: That monitoring didn't happen as it should have, so there's 81 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:18,360 Speaker 4: another fine. I mean it goes on and now they've 82 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:21,760 Speaker 4: lost a wheel again. This is a United Airlines flight. 83 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 4: The jet lost the main landing gear wheel while taking 84 00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:29,800 Speaker 4: off from Los Angeles. It was off to Denver. There 85 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:33,000 Speaker 4: were one hundred and seventy four passengers on board, seven 86 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:37,960 Speaker 4: crew members. No injuries on the ground or in the ear, 87 00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 4: and they said, and they loved this from Boeing. The 88 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 4: wheel has been recovered in Los Angeles. Check your backyards, people, Biden. 89 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:50,360 Speaker 4: Let's go to Washington, DC because Biden big day for him, well, 90 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:52,279 Speaker 4: a big couple of days. Actually, he's going to have 91 00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:54,560 Speaker 4: three days of meetings and then he's going to have 92 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:57,880 Speaker 4: a solo press conference on Thursday. So when you wake 93 00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:00,200 Speaker 4: up and listen to Early Edition on Friday morning, you 94 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 4: can bet your bottom dollar that we will bring you 95 00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 4: the latest on that because he's going to have to 96 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 4: answer questions live in real time from heckling, naggy, little 97 00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 4: pesky reporters, and he's not going to be able to 98 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:15,800 Speaker 4: go away and hide or sleep. Actually, there was a 99 00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 4: report out this morning that when he was at the 100 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 4: g seventh summit in Europe recently in June, he missed 101 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 4: a meeting with the German Chancellor Olif Schultz because he 102 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:30,359 Speaker 4: had to go to bed. Everyone needs to sleep, I guess. Anyway, 103 00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:33,600 Speaker 4: Biden is older than NATO. Did you know the meeting 104 00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:36,400 Speaker 4: that is happening in Washington, DC. So they're going to 105 00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:39,560 Speaker 4: whelhim out. They'll put his sunglasses on and hopefully they 106 00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:43,200 Speaker 4: will prove that he can eat soup without dribbling. But 107 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:45,479 Speaker 4: the world we will be watching closely, and there's a 108 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:49,120 Speaker 4: good reason for that. There are serious implications to whether 109 00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:53,240 Speaker 4: Biden is or isn't the leader of the United States. 110 00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:57,440 Speaker 4: You know, not only does it affecting things like the markets, 111 00:05:57,480 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 4: but you know what would a Trump presence mean for 112 00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:03,560 Speaker 4: the support for Ukraine and the emphatic support that Biden 113 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 4: has shown. So for an organization like NATO, these are 114 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:10,840 Speaker 4: very important questions, and whether the guy sitting in the 115 00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:15,320 Speaker 4: chair is falling asleep or not is quite foundational to 116 00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:18,880 Speaker 4: the business that they are actually there to discuss, which 117 00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:20,719 Speaker 4: is all of course quite serious, not to mention the 118 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 4: fact that Sweden and Finland invented NATO and they'll be 119 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 4: there as well. So a lot to get through, and 120 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:29,800 Speaker 4: very quickly. Just so you know that the detail that 121 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:32,640 Speaker 4: these reporters are going to be looking at seeing N's 122 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:37,200 Speaker 4: report says every step that Biden takes, every gesture that 123 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:40,760 Speaker 4: he makes, every word that he utters, will be under 124 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:45,400 Speaker 4: intense scrutiny for four days. It's thirteen minutes after five 125 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:48,359 Speaker 4: now coming up next, Why you could save five grand 126 00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 4: off a ute by twenty twenty seven. 127 00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:54,160 Speaker 2: The first word on the News of the Day Early 128 00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:58,000 Speaker 2: edition with Ryan Bridge and Smith City, New Zealand's furniture 129 00:06:58,040 --> 00:06:59,720 Speaker 2: beds and a playing store, New. 130 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 4: Store, welcome back. It has just gone quarter past five 131 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 4: here on News Talk sai'd be I don't mind a 132 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 4: g string at a swimming pool personally. We'll talk about 133 00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:12,120 Speaker 4: that later on Right now though, for your ute, the 134 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 4: Clean Car Importer standards are set to be lowered to 135 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,960 Speaker 4: align with Australia's emission standards. The adjustments will see a 136 00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 4: softening of the CO two targets for commercial vehicles, including utes. 137 00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:26,040 Speaker 4: The Clean Car standard penalties as they stand, we'd see 138 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:29,440 Speaker 4: people paying an extra five and a half thousand dollars 139 00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:33,040 Speaker 4: when purchasing certain types of vehicles by twenty twenty seven, 140 00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:36,520 Speaker 4: so that money could be saved. Kirsten Colson is the 141 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 4: chair of Drive Electric and is with me this morning. 142 00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 4: A Kirston, good morning to you. I won't ask about 143 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 4: the g strings at the pools, but we will ask 144 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:47,000 Speaker 4: about about the utes. Is this heading in the right 145 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,240 Speaker 4: direction or the wrong direction? Look? 146 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 7: What's heading in the wrong direction. It's really clear already 147 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:56,320 Speaker 7: from the data that the emission standards of our vehicles 148 00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 7: in New Zealand have increased in twenty three so we're 149 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:00,640 Speaker 7: heading in the wrong direction completely. 150 00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:04,520 Speaker 4: Why should we be doing any better than Australia. 151 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:11,560 Speaker 7: Well, this legislation is set to align with Australia, but 152 00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:14,920 Speaker 7: actually it doesn't. Australia have got penalties that are a 153 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:18,600 Speaker 7: lot tougher the New Zealand and Australia also has federal 154 00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 7: and state incentives at in every state in Australia, so 155 00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:27,280 Speaker 7: it's much more appealing to go EV in Australia than 156 00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:28,120 Speaker 7: it is in New Zealand. 157 00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:31,200 Speaker 4: What's their uptake? Because we're what two percent of our fleet? 158 00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:34,880 Speaker 4: Are we still about we're. 159 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:37,200 Speaker 7: Two percent and if you look at last year, we 160 00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:39,959 Speaker 7: were sitting at around twenty seven percent of new cow 161 00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:43,320 Speaker 7: sales we're electric and this year we've gone down to 162 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:47,240 Speaker 7: eight percent. If we look I guess at our really 163 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:51,560 Speaker 7: big trading partners where we've got fair trade agreements, China 164 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 7: is looking at forty five percent new cow sales are electric, 165 00:08:55,960 --> 00:09:00,240 Speaker 7: Europe's looking at twenty five percent and the US as 166 00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:03,920 Speaker 7: looking at eleven percent. So you know, we've got trading 167 00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:08,120 Speaker 7: agreements where we've got a commitment to decabinze and those 168 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:11,440 Speaker 7: partners are decabinizing, but clearly we're not at the moment. 169 00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:14,600 Speaker 4: Okay, So you would like to see this, You would 170 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 4: like to see the government basically reverse this. You want 171 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 4: to see I mean, the Ford range is still is 172 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:22,800 Speaker 4: that still a most popular vehicle sold vehicle? It was 173 00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:26,480 Speaker 4: for a few years. They're running Kiwis obviously like buying them, 174 00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:28,800 Speaker 4: and there's a cost of living crisis. So isn't there 175 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,680 Speaker 4: a you know, isn't there an argument to take the 176 00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:34,400 Speaker 4: of the accelerator accelerator a little bit? 177 00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:39,079 Speaker 7: Look, if the government was truly serious about saving Kiwi's money, 178 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:41,720 Speaker 7: they would be supporting them to get into evs. And 179 00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:45,160 Speaker 7: the reason being Ryan, if you charged your EV at 180 00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:48,839 Speaker 7: home overnight, off peak, you'd be paying around two dollars 181 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:52,280 Speaker 7: per one hundred kilometers. If you're paying for petrol on 182 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:55,760 Speaker 7: a six point nine liter vehicle, you're paying around twenty 183 00:09:55,840 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 7: dollars per one hundred kilometers. So absolutely there is a cost. 184 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 4: Love you, the road user charge will change, will take 185 00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:04,040 Speaker 4: care of that, won't it? 186 00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:09,480 Speaker 7: No road user charges. We're still paying twenty three percent 187 00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:12,840 Speaker 7: more than a petrol vehicle and EV but still over 188 00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:17,160 Speaker 7: a total cost of ownership model evs are still substantially cheaper. 189 00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:19,520 Speaker 4: All right, we will leave it there, Kirston, thank you 190 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 4: very much for your time. Kirston Causon, the chair of 191 00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:25,480 Speaker 4: Drive Electric, responding to news there that the clean car 192 00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:28,120 Speaker 4: and porter standards are set to be lowered. They will 193 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:31,120 Speaker 4: be aligned with Australia, though as Kirston has pointed out, 194 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:34,560 Speaker 4: there are other differences in that equation too. It is 195 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:36,720 Speaker 4: nineteen minutes after five. 196 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:41,400 Speaker 2: Get ahead of the headlines, Ryan Bridge New for twenty 197 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 2: twenty four on early edition with Smith City, New Zealand's 198 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 2: furniture beds and a player store news talk zid. 199 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 4: B twenty one after five. Here very quickly, it texts Ryan, 200 00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:54,679 Speaker 4: just because a Boeing aircraft has lost a wheel does 201 00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:57,480 Speaker 4: not make it a Boeing issue. It could have been 202 00:10:57,559 --> 00:11:00,280 Speaker 4: a maintenance issue with one of the companies that the 203 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:03,080 Speaker 4: wheel change. It's like saying that Ford has more issues 204 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:06,240 Speaker 4: when a Ford Ranger lost a wheel, but that had 205 00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:09,280 Speaker 4: just been to Firestone. So point taken, I think it 206 00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:11,679 Speaker 4: could be could well be him, could well have been 207 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:16,600 Speaker 4: a maintenance issue though that notwithstanding, Boeing still has plenty 208 00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:20,120 Speaker 4: of other stuff going on to worry about but I 209 00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 4: appreciate the text, thank you very much for that. A 210 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:23,960 Speaker 4: nine two ninety two is the number. 211 00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:25,240 Speaker 8: Right. 212 00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:27,800 Speaker 4: Let's turn our attention into sale GP because it's coming 213 00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 4: to Auckland. The schedule for racing next year has been announced, 214 00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 4: the seasonal start and d Bay before heading to Auckland. 215 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:36,719 Speaker 4: It follows the news that the league withdrew from a 216 00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:38,840 Speaker 4: hosting agreement that would have seen it take place in 217 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:43,160 Speaker 4: christ Church again. Richard Gladwell is the Sale World New 218 00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:45,600 Speaker 4: Zealand editor and he's with me now. Richard, good morning 219 00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:49,440 Speaker 4: to you, tell you good good, thank you, great news 220 00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:53,120 Speaker 4: for Aucklanders. Anything to do with the dolphins. 221 00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:56,440 Speaker 5: Oh well, I thanks everything to do with the dolphins. 222 00:11:56,480 --> 00:12:00,720 Speaker 5: And you know Ruth Costs comped to go down there 223 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:03,920 Speaker 5: again after the last time. I think they just can't 224 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:08,000 Speaker 5: losing in a whole day because someone sees the dolphins 225 00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:11,000 Speaker 5: swung around the course. So yeah, it's all to do 226 00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:12,880 Speaker 5: with that. But I think also there was also an 227 00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:17,200 Speaker 5: agreement in there in place that Auckland would have two 228 00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:20,720 Speaker 5: sale GP events in four years and christ Church would 229 00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:24,080 Speaker 5: have had two. So christ Church have had the tea. 230 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:26,679 Speaker 5: So hopefully the Ukland are about to get there. Too, right. 231 00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:29,199 Speaker 4: Do you think the council is paying anything for this? 232 00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:32,360 Speaker 4: Is there any backhanders that go on with seldt. 233 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:36,720 Speaker 5: Oh no, this, I mean NB are up front about it. 234 00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:40,040 Speaker 5: You go onto their website, they've listed down for a 235 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:44,160 Speaker 5: gathers and they say they're paying five point four million 236 00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:48,559 Speaker 5: dollar event. So I assume that the Auckland Council isn't 237 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 5: paying anything. However, they will be paying, you know, in 238 00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:56,920 Speaker 5: kind for a lot of things. And they after that announcement, 239 00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:59,760 Speaker 5: they've come out and said that they're looking at what 240 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:04,120 Speaker 5: point which is the venue that caused all the cafuffle 241 00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:07,360 Speaker 5: last time. So hopefully everyone's got their ducks on a 242 00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:08,160 Speaker 5: row of that. 243 00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:11,120 Speaker 4: That's right. So where will we watch it from? Can 244 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:13,320 Speaker 4: we watch it because that was the problem last time? 245 00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:16,959 Speaker 5: Well, yeah, there's plenty of I mean I haven't been 246 00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:20,200 Speaker 5: a Winyard Point lately, but when I was last year, 247 00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:23,720 Speaker 5: they still had it, you know, getting those gases out 248 00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:27,160 Speaker 5: of the ground and releasing those from the stalled fuel 249 00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:30,240 Speaker 5: tanks and substance tanks. So people will be down there 250 00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:34,560 Speaker 5: on Winyard Point. There's plenty of advantage places around west 251 00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:37,960 Speaker 5: Haven and that sort of thing. You can also probably 252 00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:39,560 Speaker 5: watch it a bit of it from the shore from 253 00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:43,839 Speaker 5: north Cape Point. Yea such surrounded. But the other thing 254 00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 5: to remember too is sort of mean, there's a lot 255 00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 5: of facilities down there that were done for America's Cups 256 00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:52,560 Speaker 5: that are you know, they're open and used, but they're 257 00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:56,600 Speaker 5: they certainly don't get heavy use. So I think it'll 258 00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:58,199 Speaker 5: be a great vantage point down there. 259 00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:01,280 Speaker 4: So you're confident that we've got enough infrastructure they're already 260 00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 4: to actually host this event and to host it on time, 261 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:06,400 Speaker 4: because I mean it's coming, It's around the corner, isn't it. 262 00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:09,840 Speaker 5: Well, yeah, all they've got all the saying all accounts 263 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:12,400 Speaker 5: will have to do is they've just got to essentially 264 00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:15,720 Speaker 5: put that winded point down and tarmac in the same 265 00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:18,040 Speaker 5: way that they've done it around in a team New 266 00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:22,840 Speaker 5: Zealand and further back towards the city. So once they've 267 00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:25,160 Speaker 5: got that area, they're a hard stand. The team just 268 00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:29,960 Speaker 5: comes in and puts all their support bases and that 269 00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:33,560 Speaker 5: sort of thing, and they're a big feature of sel 270 00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:36,560 Speaker 5: GPS what they call the Adrenaline Lounge, So that's a 271 00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 5: real VIP hospitality area and that goes right hard on 272 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:44,080 Speaker 5: the water's edge and then they have the boats finishing 273 00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 5: you off that so they're so close that you can 274 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:50,360 Speaker 5: virtually touch them. In fact, in the last two or 275 00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:56,000 Speaker 5: three sal Gpens events, having that finish line so close 276 00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:58,880 Speaker 5: to a seawall has caused a few kurefuffles. 277 00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:01,760 Speaker 4: To say the least, it sounds like the place I'm 278 00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:03,600 Speaker 4: going to be down at the Adrenaline Lounge. Thank you 279 00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:06,400 Speaker 4: very much for the time this morning. Appreciate it. Exciting 280 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:09,320 Speaker 4: news that the Sale gp is coming to Tamaki, Mikoto. 281 00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:12,080 Speaker 4: That's which are glad well with the Sale World New 282 00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:15,040 Speaker 4: Zealand magazine. It is twenty five after five back in a. 283 00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:22,160 Speaker 3: Second separating the fact from the fiction Kid's Filly edition 284 00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:26,040 Speaker 3: with Smith City, New Zealand's Furniture Beds and Appliant Store. 285 00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:29,040 Speaker 4: News Talk said, B right, it has just gone twenty 286 00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:31,000 Speaker 4: seven minutes after five year on news Talk said b 287 00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:33,680 Speaker 4: I'm always a little bit paranoid about what governments are 288 00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:36,440 Speaker 4: planning and what kind of taxes that they're scheming up. 289 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 4: And if you look at the UK, which is of 290 00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:42,320 Speaker 4: recently elected governments, one of the few that sort of 291 00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:44,760 Speaker 4: has a mandate and is actually functioning. I mean, look 292 00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:47,240 Speaker 4: at France or look at the lame duck president in 293 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:49,880 Speaker 4: the United States. However, if you look at the UK 294 00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:53,720 Speaker 4: and Cares Starmer they are talking about and it is 295 00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:57,320 Speaker 4: just muffles and quiet, secret little meetings that have been 296 00:15:57,440 --> 00:16:01,520 Speaker 4: reported in the press. The potential for an inheritance fiddling 297 00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 4: with their inheritance tax. They have one we don't. On 298 00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 4: NAHA this show yesterday they were speaking about with Jeff 299 00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:11,440 Speaker 4: Nightingale about the potential for our Labour Party to introduce one. 300 00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:13,960 Speaker 4: I hate the idea of it. In the UK it's 301 00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:18,200 Speaker 4: forty percent and they paid seven out of a half 302 00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:22,040 Speaker 4: billion pounds and death duties last year, which is a 303 00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:24,920 Speaker 4: huge increase, and this is largely because property prices have 304 00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:27,440 Speaker 4: gone up and what governments all over the world are 305 00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:29,400 Speaker 4: doing is running out of money and they're running out 306 00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:32,280 Speaker 4: of ways to tax people, and this one's quite appealing 307 00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:34,600 Speaker 4: to a lot of them, and if you look at 308 00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:38,000 Speaker 4: the UK in particular, So the number paying death duties 309 00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:41,080 Speaker 4: is expected to jump from thirty three thousand this year 310 00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:43,800 Speaker 4: to nearly forty four thousand by the end of the 311 00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:48,000 Speaker 4: next parliament, and that is a very tempting number for 312 00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:52,160 Speaker 4: a government that needs new ways of finding revenue and 313 00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:55,880 Speaker 4: This is obviously the post war baby boomer generation now 314 00:16:55,880 --> 00:17:00,880 Speaker 4: approaching the average life expectancy. So look out, governments all 315 00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:03,520 Speaker 4: around the world will be looking at ways to tax 316 00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:07,040 Speaker 4: us more. I'm not saying it's going to happen here. Obviously, 317 00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:09,000 Speaker 4: there was a hint on here the show yesterday that 318 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:11,760 Speaker 4: that labor might be planning something. I don't like the 319 00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:15,480 Speaker 4: idea of this. I think keep out of our business, please, 320 00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:17,560 Speaker 4: And if somebody is dying in your family, the last 321 00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:19,120 Speaker 4: thing you want to think about is the forty percent 322 00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:22,320 Speaker 4: you've got to pay to the tax man. Right We're 323 00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:25,639 Speaker 4: coming up to news after that.

There is a mother who 336 00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:14,760 Speaker 4: takes her children I think they're boys, to the Todd 337 00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:17,520 Speaker 4: Energy Aquatic Center in New Plymouth and she's noticed these 338 00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:20,840 Speaker 4: itsy bitsy teeny winnie bikinis. I don't think bikini is 339 00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:22,879 Speaker 4: the right word for it. It is it's a G 340 00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:27,480 Speaker 4: string or a G banger as they're noomen. It's basically 341 00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:33,359 Speaker 4: just exposed, completely exposed bottom.

Where are you on the G string debate? 344 00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:44,480 Speaker 4: Nine nine two is the number to text I personally 345 00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:47,680 Speaker 4: don't really care. I don't mind, But then I don't 346 00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:50,040 Speaker 4: have a young family, so maybe that's, you know, maybe 347 00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:53,119 Speaker 4: that's your issue. Nineteen nine two is an umber to 348 00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:56,080 Speaker 4: text ya or nay to the G string? What do 349 00:18:56,119 --> 00:18:58,760 Speaker 4: you call them? Is it just a G string? Not 350 00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:02,720 Speaker 4: a not a G banger? We wouldn't say that, okay. Well, 351 00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:04,719 Speaker 4: perhaps if you've got a better word for them, then 352 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:06,520 Speaker 4: you could text that through as well. A nine two 353 00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:11,160 Speaker 4: nine two also this morning, high adheritance to Mediterranean diets. 354 00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:14,359 Speaker 4: You've heard this for years, but there's another study is 355 00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:18,000 Speaker 4: associated with a twenty three percent reduction in all cause 356 00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:21,879 Speaker 4: mortality in women. So basically, if you eat a Mediterranean diet, 357 00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:25,960 Speaker 4: you'll live longer. This is according to a report from 358 00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:29,840 Speaker 4: the published in the Jammer Network Open in May. It 359 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:32,080 Speaker 4: was based on data from a study that followed twenty 360 00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:34,760 Speaker 4: five thousand women. The average age was fifty five for 361 00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:38,400 Speaker 4: twenty five years. And they emphasize in this even though 362 00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:41,239 Speaker 4: a Mediterranean diet includes seafood and fish and stuff, they 363 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:43,880 Speaker 4: don't mention that in this article. They just say it's 364 00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:48,840 Speaker 4: plant based foods and they talk about the perils of 365 00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:51,199 Speaker 4: red meat. I just want to make the point to 366 00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:53,840 Speaker 4: any men listening this morning that this was a study 367 00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:58,360 Speaker 4: exclusively of women, so we can go on eating steak. Right. 368 00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:00,280 Speaker 4: It has just gone at twenty ten minutes away from 369 00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:04,320 Speaker 4: six s Bray and Bridge.

So the 379 00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:40,320 Speaker 9: Council from Now's agreed the university will not restrict debate 380 00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:44,160 Speaker 9: or deliberations simply because the ideas put forth the thought 381 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:48,080 Speaker 9: by some to be offensive, unwise, immoral or wrongheaded. Activist 382 00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:51,840 Speaker 9: group the Free Speech Unions praising this wide ranging statement, 383 00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:53,880 Speaker 9: saying it is the best in the country. 384 00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:56,959 Speaker 4: Wow, who would have thought they have to say that?

The City Council here has 392 00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:16,240 Speaker 10: labeled finishing this three stage upgrade from Hereford Street to 393 00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:20,600 Speaker 10: sint ASEIV as a milestone in our post quake recovery. 394 00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:24,680 Speaker 10: So new work actually includes a big paving design out 395 00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:26,880 Speaker 10: of Mowana paving design across the street, as well as 396 00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:30,199 Speaker 10: a cycle lane connecting those from the Heathcott Expressway to 397 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:33,280 Speaker 10: the city Council's head of Transport, land At Alis, says 398 00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:36,960 Speaker 10: some wider footpaths and a ten kilometer speed them it 399 00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:39,600 Speaker 10: have also been put in place. She's hopeful this will 400 00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:43,520 Speaker 10: make the area more pedestrian friendly, given foot traffics expected 401 00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:46,639 Speaker 10: to surge when the new stadium opens in twenty twenty six. 402 00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:49,560 Speaker 4: Weather today clear, low cloud. 403 00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 10: And fog about this morning, but fine spells increasing this afternoon. 404 00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:55,760 Speaker 10: At southwesterlies the highest ten the low minus two. 405 00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:58,719 Speaker 4: Beautiful. Thank you. Let's go to Max Toll in Wellington. 406 00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:01,720 Speaker 4: The Wellington and Sign. You all know that the one 407 00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:05,080 Speaker 4: as you fly in on the plane has been hijacked. Max. 408 00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:06,399 Speaker 11: It's the end of the world. 409 00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:07,040 Speaker 5: Yeah. 410 00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:10,840 Speaker 11: The iconic Wellington sign has had a banner draped over 411 00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:14,359 Speaker 11: it by climate protesters from the group three point fifty 412 00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:18,120 Speaker 11: head Or. They climbed up yesterday afternoon to the mock 413 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:21,919 Speaker 11: Hollywood sign, hung the words and private jets over it. 414 00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:23,720 Speaker 11: You wouldn't have thought private jets would be such an 415 00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:26,639 Speaker 11: issue here, but apparently Queenstown Airport, the only airport in 416 00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:29,800 Speaker 11: the country that releases such data, says about five hundred 417 00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:32,760 Speaker 11: private jets landed there last year. This group wants them 418 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:36,919 Speaker 11: taxed and phased out. This protest far less disruptive than 419 00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:39,800 Speaker 11: previous environmental ones we've had in the capitol lately. Worth 420 00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:42,159 Speaker 11: noting as well, it's been a year now since the 421 00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:46,000 Speaker 11: Wellington sign had a football installed to replace the O 422 00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:49,920 Speaker 11: for the Women's World Cup. The council hasn't apparently had 423 00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:51,959 Speaker 11: a chance to revert it back. Let's see how long 424 00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:53,120 Speaker 11: they take to take the banner down. 425 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:55,200 Speaker 4: I did notice that football is still there. 426 00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:57,160 Speaker 11: Maybe it's a permanent thing. 427 00:22:57,320 --> 00:22:59,359 Speaker 4: Perhaps they just got well, it's probably cheaper just to 428 00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:01,480 Speaker 4: leave it there, isn't it. How's the weather today? 429 00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:05,400 Speaker 11: Max should be partly cloudy, Northerlys twelve in the city. 430 00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 4: Thank you.

This will seem extraordinary to 505 00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:39,360 Speaker 13: some listeners, but the US government has blocked a British 506 00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:43,719 Speaker 13: court hearing from taking place on a British territory. It 507 00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:46,679 Speaker 13: does sound utterly bizarre, but we're talking here about a 508 00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:52,000 Speaker 13: British Indian Ocean territory, an island called Diego Garcia. Now 509 00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:55,360 Speaker 13: it's got a long complicated history, but it is British 510 00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:59,760 Speaker 13: it took control of the Chagos Islands that was part 511 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:02,920 Speaker 13: of Mauritius back in nineteen sixty five, and then went 512 00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:05,240 Speaker 13: on to evict the population of more than a thousand 513 00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:07,480 Speaker 13: people to make way from military base. And it's the 514 00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:11,679 Speaker 13: military base which, yes, you guessed it is now American, 515 00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:14,800 Speaker 13: and which the Americans object to this court hearing. The 516 00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:17,640 Speaker 13: court hearing is all about some migrants trying to make 517 00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:22,639 Speaker 13: it to Canada and they're on the island at the moment. 518 00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:24,720 Speaker 13: It was due to be a court in a British court, 519 00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:27,160 Speaker 13: but the Americans said, oh, no, you darn't. We don't 520 00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:29,159 Speaker 13: actually think it's a good idea to have members of 521 00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:31,200 Speaker 13: the press here. We don't think it's a good idea 522 00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:33,880 Speaker 13: for all these lawyers to fly in. And because America 523 00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:37,800 Speaker 13: runs all the accommodation, the food and the transport, they 524 00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:40,720 Speaker 13: are quite simply able to say you're not coming on 525 00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:43,480 Speaker 13: the island. As I said, it's complicated, but it seems 526 00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:45,200 Speaker 13: an extraordinary state of play. 527 00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:49,520 Speaker 4: It certainly does. What about this investigation into the French 528 00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:54,679 Speaker 4: fire right, the national rally over allegations of inappropriate financing. 529 00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:58,360 Speaker 13: Yes, so this is all aimed at Marine La Penn 530 00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:01,280 Speaker 13: She is the leader of the National Rally Party, the 531 00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:04,359 Speaker 13: far right party in France that did so well in 532 00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:08,200 Speaker 13: the National Assembly elections just finished though did not get 533 00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:11,920 Speaker 13: a majority. But prosecutors in Paris and now saying they're 534 00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:16,320 Speaker 13: looking to allegations of embezzlement, forgery and fraud and this 535 00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:19,399 Speaker 13: was all over her attempt to become president back in 536 00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:22,520 Speaker 13: twenty twenty two. Now for some they're thinking, hang on 537 00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:24,879 Speaker 13: a minute, is this because they're trying to scuffer her 538 00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:28,600 Speaker 13: popularity because she did very well in these elections. But 539 00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:31,560 Speaker 13: the authorities say no, this is all about the fact 540 00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:35,560 Speaker 13: she's received loans in the past from Russia and Hungarian banks. 541 00:28:35,840 --> 00:28:39,280 Speaker 13: The Russian loan was worth some eighteen million New Zealand dollars, 542 00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:41,720 Speaker 13: but that was all paid back last year. So the 543 00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:45,360 Speaker 13: investigations will go on and this particular court will judge 544 00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:48,640 Speaker 13: her and twenty four other party members in September. And 545 00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:51,520 Speaker 13: just briefly round before you go. Sad news for New 546 00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:54,880 Speaker 13: Zealand's Lulu sun Rang. I'm afraid a good campaign in 547 00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:57,280 Speaker 13: Winwood and Tennis, but knocked out by the crow at 548 00:28:57,360 --> 00:29:01,800 Speaker 13: Donna Vikisch This morning. Our time caught number one with 549 00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:04,960 Speaker 13: the roof on we've had terrible weather. Having knocked out 550 00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:08,120 Speaker 13: Britain's Emmarada Khana in the fourth round, she was hoping 551 00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:10,920 Speaker 13: to become the first qualifier to reach the women's semi 552 00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:13,960 Speaker 13: final since nineteen ninety nine. I'm afraid it wasn't to be. 553 00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:16,600 Speaker 13: She got beaten five seven six four six one. 554 00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:20,440 Speaker 4: Kevin Gray, our UK europe correspondent. She'll be back, don't 555 00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:23,959 Speaker 4: worry about that. It is turned away from sex Ranbridge 556 00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:26,280 Speaker 4: and we're going down to Kelly Echold, who is with 557 00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:29,040 Speaker 4: us from Westpac, the chief economist there. Kelly, good morning. 558 00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:31,600 Speaker 4: It is ocr day today. We're expecting it to be 559 00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:34,200 Speaker 4: held at five and a half percent. But what are 560 00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:36,960 Speaker 4: we looking for in terms of language from the Reserve 561 00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:37,960 Speaker 4: Bank today. 562 00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:41,360 Speaker 8: Well, today we think the Reserve Bank's going to keep 563 00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:44,200 Speaker 8: it pretty tight here. They educated back in May that 564 00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:47,760 Speaker 8: they sought interestraights. You have to remain restrictive for a 565 00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:53,120 Speaker 8: protracted period to get inflation down, So not very much 566 00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:55,479 Speaker 8: has changed them, might suspect. So I think it's going 567 00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:58,800 Speaker 8: to be pretty short and sweet. Perhaps some hint that 568 00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:01,800 Speaker 8: the economy has turned down a little bit based off 569 00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:04,160 Speaker 8: some of the indicators have seen since. 570 00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:07,920 Speaker 4: May, and banks like asb are predicting that there'll be 571 00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:11,120 Speaker 4: a cut in November, Westpac saying, now you still think 572 00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:13,720 Speaker 4: early next year? Is that still your view? Could that 573 00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:14,600 Speaker 4: change today? 574 00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:18,600 Speaker 8: Don't think it all changed today and it is still view. 575 00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:21,760 Speaker 8: The challenge thing for the Reserve Bank is that they 576 00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:24,720 Speaker 8: really need to see some runs on board here with 577 00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:28,400 Speaker 8: respect to getting that inflation rate down within their target range. 578 00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:33,240 Speaker 8: Plation's running at four percent, it's twice the target. And 579 00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:36,280 Speaker 8: whilst we're all hoping that there'll be some interest rate 580 00:30:36,360 --> 00:30:40,280 Speaker 8: relief sometime soon, the reality is that inflation won't go 581 00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:44,959 Speaker 8: where by itself. It's it's going to require that period 582 00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:48,760 Speaker 8: of tight conditions, flat economic activity so that we can 583 00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:51,120 Speaker 8: actually get to where things have been forecasted. 584 00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:54,400 Speaker 4: What about this issue of non tradable inflation that keeps 585 00:30:54,440 --> 00:30:57,560 Speaker 4: wearing its head that that actually the Reserve Bank's blunt 586 00:30:57,720 --> 00:31:03,040 Speaker 4: tool isn't working for for things like council rate increases. 587 00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:05,840 Speaker 8: Et cetera. Yeah, well, it takes a bit of time, 588 00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:07,880 Speaker 8: I think for some of these things to happen. I 589 00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:11,400 Speaker 8: mean the particular issues I guess that the council rates 590 00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:15,480 Speaker 8: and also the insurance charges as well. You know, the 591 00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:18,040 Speaker 8: typical lags on those things are a little bit longer, 592 00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:20,800 Speaker 8: and that's why we've been sitting here with these interest 593 00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:24,320 Speaker 8: rates for a relatively long period of time compared to 594 00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:29,240 Speaker 8: previous cycles. But the fact that the economy has responded 595 00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:32,360 Speaker 8: to interest rates gives you confidence that is going to 596 00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:34,520 Speaker 8: have an impact. But it's just going to take time. 597 00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:38,440 Speaker 8: And it's that message of the time required to happen 598 00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:41,320 Speaker 8: to keep interest rates at this level is the key 599 00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:43,880 Speaker 8: message that the Reserve Bank has really been telling us. 600 00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:46,320 Speaker 4: All right, so we've looked for the language today, but 601 00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:48,560 Speaker 4: it will be around the edges. Kelly E called the 602 00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:51,840 Speaker 4: Westpac chief economists with us this morning. That decision, by 603 00:31:51,840 --> 00:31:54,120 Speaker 4: the way, d'out at two pm.
