Honestly, when I started 32 00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:46,520 Speaker 5: these drama classes a couple of years back, I didn't 33 00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:49,400 Speaker 5: expect to be even in the United States, never mind here. 34 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:53,440 Speaker 5: Well I was nothing about three years ago. I'm here 35 00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:54,360 Speaker 5: And also. 36 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:58,280 Speaker 1: Views and Views you trust to start your day. It's 37 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 1: early edition with Brian and One Room Love, where you Live, 38 00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 1: News talks. 39 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:05,640 Speaker 2: That'd beat to have your company. Just gone eight minutes 40 00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:08,079 Speaker 2: after five nine to ninety two the number to text Halling. 41 00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:10,920 Speaker 2: Clark's put out a statement on Eden Park. Are we 42 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:14,679 Speaker 2: surprised to hear she's a neighbor? Of course, I'll just 43 00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:16,680 Speaker 2: read you the first line A key point is that 44 00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:19,880 Speaker 2: Eden Park is not even close to maximizing the use 45 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:24,120 Speaker 2: of its current under its current restrictions. So the agreement 46 00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:27,080 Speaker 2: that they've got in place at the moment, it's pretty restrictive. 47 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 2: You can only have twelve concerts a year, so six 48 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:34,079 Speaker 2: artists and twelve concerts a year maximum. They've got a 49 00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 2: curfew for weeknight events, all that kind of stuff. She 50 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,680 Speaker 2: says that if they're not even maxing what they've got, 51 00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 2: then why do you need to give them more? I 52 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:46,440 Speaker 2: suppose it's because if you had fewer restrictions, you might 53 00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:50,320 Speaker 2: get different events and different artists attracted here that you 54 00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:53,000 Speaker 2: otherwise wouldn't get. People have been asking in the last 55 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:57,359 Speaker 2: twenty well twelve hours, why is the government doing? Sounds 56 00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 2: silly to just we're going to do consultation on this, Like, 57 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:02,360 Speaker 2: you know, we've made up our minds pretty much. We 58 00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:05,120 Speaker 2: think we need to lift these restrictions or lift some 59 00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:08,359 Speaker 2: of them. Why are they doing consultation? Like, just get 60 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:11,160 Speaker 2: on with it. People are sick of waiting around. You know, 61 00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:13,079 Speaker 2: you've been saying you're going to this is an announcement 62 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:17,600 Speaker 2: about consultation that you hope to then become an announcement. 63 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:20,160 Speaker 2: It's not even an announcement about an announcement. That would 64 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,799 Speaker 2: be better would be, you know, just scratching them scraping 65 00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 2: the barrel here. Anyway, I had a look last night 66 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:28,480 Speaker 2: at the RMA. So the government passed an amendment to 67 00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:33,240 Speaker 2: the RMA this year, and this is a targeted tool, 68 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:38,560 Speaker 2: so the government can overrule local regulations. They can walk 69 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:42,400 Speaker 2: in like a czar and say this is happening. Come hello, 70 00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:45,160 Speaker 2: high water and Helen Clark. You can just put some 71 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 2: little air plugs in and get to sleep. Now, in 72 00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:51,920 Speaker 2: the legislation they have baked into this legislation the fact 73 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:55,200 Speaker 2: that you need to do consultation. So a couple of things. 74 00:03:55,200 --> 00:04:00,200 Speaker 2: It's really targeted, and it's it's for if anything that 75 00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 2: would promote economic growth or development capacity they call it, 76 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:09,000 Speaker 2: or employment. Under those provisions, the government can step in. 77 00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:12,240 Speaker 2: So that's why. And in order to make that happen, 78 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:16,359 Speaker 2: it says in the legislation you must consult, so that 79 00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 2: is why they're doing the consultation. 80 00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:17,840 Speaker 5: Now. 81 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 2: The question then becomes, this is the same government that 82 00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 2: pass the law, so they've forced themselves to do consultation. 83 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 2: So should they have done that? Why did they do that. 84 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:31,280 Speaker 2: That's a question for the government today. I reckon anyway, 85 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:33,440 Speaker 2: we'll talk about that just before six o'clock this morning. 86 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:37,599 Speaker 2: Bad news for the services sector. Remember, services sector makes 87 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:40,120 Speaker 2: up seventy percent of our economy, so it's important. The 88 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:44,880 Speaker 2: PSI is going backwards again. Services sector August number is 89 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,360 Speaker 2: forty seven point five. Remember, you've got to get above 90 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 2: fifty to be positive. We're down one point four points 91 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:53,320 Speaker 2: on July. Been going wrong, way, been going south eighteen 92 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:56,520 Speaker 2: months on the trot Now the average long term is 93 00:04:56,640 --> 00:05:02,840 Speaker 2: fifty two point nine. Why inflation, interest costs, weaker consumer confidence. 94 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:05,279 Speaker 2: B n Z says, Yeah, there are good signs that 95 00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:07,160 Speaker 2: the economy might be turning in a corner. We might 96 00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:11,040 Speaker 2: be coming around, but the bounce back could take longer 97 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:14,560 Speaker 2: than expected. You're on news Talk, said, be on your 98 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:18,040 Speaker 2: Tuesday morning.

She had 104 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:38,679 Speaker 2: left basically because she didn't declare she should have paid 105 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:42,120 Speaker 2: some duties on houses that she didn't decleaar properly. And 106 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 2: she's the Housing Minister anyway. And then there was Lord Mandelsson. 107 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:49,240 Speaker 2: And now there's a scandal involving some old messages to 108 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 2: do with the staffer of his. It's all about a 109 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,800 Speaker 2: game that they have called shag Mary Kill. I'll tell 110 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:58,559 Speaker 2: you about that shortly.

It's messy. 114 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:11,200 Speaker 2: There's an appeal before the High Court and a scrap 115 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 2: over who should fit the bill.

We live in a 121 00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:32,840 Speaker 6: woody environment. 122 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:33,040 Speaker 2: In our region. 123 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:37,400 Speaker 6: Of course, anybody who lives here will appreciate that. Whenever 124 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 6: it rains we have stilts coming out of our streams 125 00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:43,400 Speaker 6: and our rivers as a matter of course and always 126 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:46,200 Speaker 6: have had, and that's how the Poverty Bay flats were created. 127 00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:51,359 Speaker 6: So from an operational point of view, the industry's views 128 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:56,400 Speaker 6: that while we are managing movement of woody debris and 129 00:06:56,560 --> 00:07:00,200 Speaker 6: set them in out of our forests, the constraint that 130 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:05,799 Speaker 6: the Council is currently imposing on our standard consent conditions 131 00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 6: for harvesting and roading mean that they are wanting us 132 00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:14,440 Speaker 6: to stop one hundred percent of Sultan woody debris coming 133 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:17,280 Speaker 6: out of their forest gates, which of course is totally 134 00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:19,640 Speaker 6: impractical and operationally impossible. 135 00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 2: It would make operating the impossible. 136 00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:25,400 Speaker 6: Pretty much. Yep. 137 00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:26,960 Speaker 2: So what do you do? 138 00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:33,560 Speaker 6: Well, We're currently in negotiation have been for a couple 139 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:39,160 Speaker 6: of years around trying to get some practicality and reality 140 00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 6: around some of those standard consent conditions. We have been 141 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:46,600 Speaker 6: talking to them for two years trying to get them 142 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:50,120 Speaker 6: to understand that what the industry's trying to find is 143 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:54,160 Speaker 6: an environmental and the social and an economic balance in 144 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:58,960 Speaker 6: respect of what we do and in our organizations. But 145 00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:01,160 Speaker 6: we haven't made a lot of progress to dates. 146 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:03,880 Speaker 2: To be honest, at the moment, this order from the 147 00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:07,400 Speaker 2: Environment Court requires the companies and directors to ensure woody 148 00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 2: debris sediment would not enter water and land outside of 149 00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:12,680 Speaker 2: the forest boundary. Does that mean that you would be 150 00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:13,960 Speaker 2: operating in breach of that? 151 00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:21,360 Speaker 6: If you had a resource consense which stated that, then 152 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:23,320 Speaker 6: yes you would be. 153 00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 2: Are there companies now in breach of it? 154 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:34,240 Speaker 6: There are companies which have resource consents which are set 155 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:40,079 Speaker 6: under older rules and regulations and if they were to 156 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:45,960 Speaker 6: emit woody debrand sediment outside their forests then they would 157 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:46,920 Speaker 6: be in breach of it. Yes. 158 00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:51,200 Speaker 2: Interesting. Jillian, appreciate your time this morning. Thanks so much 159 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:53,559 Speaker 2: for being with me.

A lot of farmers have been 176 00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:42,200 Speaker 7: doing it a bit tough for a number of years, 177 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:44,960 Speaker 7: so it's pleasing to see. But I think more importantly 178 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:47,480 Speaker 7: it's very good for the New Zealand economy. We know, 179 00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:49,720 Speaker 7: when you know the primary sector is doing well and 180 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:52,920 Speaker 7: prices are up, they start spending money and so we're 181 00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 7: starting to see the green roots of growth coming from 182 00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:56,400 Speaker 7: rural New Zealand. 183 00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:59,120 Speaker 2: You've got this trade delegation underway at the moment signing 184 00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 2: five new commercial or partnerships between Saudi's and New Zealand 185 00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:06,480 Speaker 2: companies worth one hundred million dollars. Can you tell us 186 00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:07,080 Speaker 2: what they're about? 187 00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:11,319 Speaker 7: Yeah, look, I'm up here with twenty two or twenty 188 00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:14,319 Speaker 7: three New Zealand companies. A range of companies who are 189 00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:17,400 Speaker 7: involved in sort of food production and export from some 190 00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:20,160 Speaker 7: of the honey companies, A couple of Marie Honey companies 191 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 7: actually you're up here doing pretty well, and then we've 192 00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:25,120 Speaker 7: got others who are making films and some on like that. 193 00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:27,079 Speaker 7: So this is just an opportunity for us to get 194 00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:30,360 Speaker 7: into Saudi, which is a big, big potential for New Zealand. 195 00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:33,600 Speaker 7: You remember we included a trade agreement with the GCC 196 00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:36,360 Speaker 7: including Saudi last year and so this was just a 197 00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:39,720 Speaker 7: chance for them to sign some deals with either partners 198 00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:42,280 Speaker 7: have already had that sort of take their trade further, 199 00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:45,600 Speaker 7: or new companies they're working with. I think that one 200 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:48,200 Speaker 7: hundred million dollars of the five deal side of day 201 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:51,480 Speaker 7: is only the start of the opportunity up here. It's 202 00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 7: just it's an economy that's growing and we with the 203 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:57,600 Speaker 7: private sector, government the privacy have been putting in a 204 00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:00,160 Speaker 7: lot of effort and I think it's starting to pay divid. 205 00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 2: What do they want with WETA. 206 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:05,400 Speaker 7: Well, so Weather have come up and signed a couple 207 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:10,360 Speaker 7: of agreements with one of the Saudi princesses actually, and 208 00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:12,160 Speaker 7: so what that will be about is if you think 209 00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 7: about down in New Zealand where it's done exhibitions in 210 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:17,040 Speaker 7: New Zealand, there's a bit of filming and so on. 211 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:21,359 Speaker 7: So as Saudi Arabia is investing heavily in their economy 212 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:24,320 Speaker 7: to open up. They want culture and tourism to be 213 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:27,160 Speaker 7: on show. And some of the suggestions WETA will pay 214 00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:30,000 Speaker 7: our ready big part in one telling the story and too, 215 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:32,640 Speaker 7: how you know how to bring visitors in and show 216 00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:35,800 Speaker 7: them more than just sand dune's and dunes and nice pictures. 217 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:38,280 Speaker 2: Going to start, I've got three really quick questions for you. 218 00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:40,800 Speaker 2: One on the Meathay target review. Have you got any 219 00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:42,680 Speaker 2: result to update farmers on this morning? 220 00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:46,640 Speaker 7: So working through that. There's a cabinet process we're working 221 00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:48,720 Speaker 7: through now, so I'm going to respect my colleagues, but 222 00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:51,280 Speaker 7: we're not too far away. I can give every farmer 223 00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:54,440 Speaker 7: and every New Zealand and assurance we will be sensible. 224 00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:58,360 Speaker 7: We have to meet our obligations and targets or obligations internationally, 225 00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:00,439 Speaker 7: but we're not going to close down farm and sends 226 00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:02,320 Speaker 7: job and production overseas along the way. 227 00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:05,439 Speaker 2: A lot of calls to sanction Israel. By my numbers 228 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:08,880 Speaker 2: our trade their exports to New Zealand, we're only about 229 00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:11,760 Speaker 2: zero point three percent to them. Have you done any 230 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:13,040 Speaker 2: work or got any advice on that? 231 00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:16,600 Speaker 7: No, I haven't. Out of the Minister our Foreign affairs 232 00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:18,439 Speaker 7: or we're talking a lot more about that quite soon. 233 00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:21,679 Speaker 2: In the government's position, there's monthly meetings with officials from 234 00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:25,240 Speaker 2: the US on updating. Yes, it's fifteen percent the tariff 235 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:27,760 Speaker 2: right now, but we wanted some clarity going forward. Do 236 00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:29,679 Speaker 2: you have any for exporters this morning? 237 00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:33,760 Speaker 7: So we're still working at that. You know. The interesting 238 00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:36,600 Speaker 7: thing is I'm here and elsewhere around the world talking 239 00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:39,440 Speaker 7: to others, they too are faithing uncertainty. I think that 240 00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:42,200 Speaker 7: at the moment the evidence is suggesting that uncertainty is 241 00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 7: causing greater harm than the tariff rate. We are working 242 00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:48,559 Speaker 7: through one of the things as if we go back 243 00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:51,400 Speaker 7: to a trade deficit EI, the US has a trade 244 00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:53,960 Speaker 7: surplus against US, how does that rate come down, and 245 00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:56,040 Speaker 7: how do we get at so it won't keep moving. 246 00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:58,960 Speaker 7: So look that we're putting every single effort in that 247 00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:01,800 Speaker 7: we can. Almost every other country in the world has 248 00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:05,560 Speaker 7: the same degree of uncertainty. The very good news, I suppose, though, 249 00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:07,400 Speaker 7: as our experts are nimbal and many of them are 250 00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:09,720 Speaker 7: choosing to look to other markets. You know, at the 251 00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:13,440 Speaker 7: time that we are facing high tariffs in the US, 252 00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:16,000 Speaker 7: we sold an extra billion dollars to the EU over 253 00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:18,320 Speaker 7: the last year, which is predominantly from the primary sector, 254 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:21,040 Speaker 7: and so there are still lots of opportunities. But the 255 00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:24,960 Speaker 7: US for every trading nation, is a confused market at 256 00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:25,360 Speaker 7: the moment. 257 00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:29,200 Speaker 2: Appreciate your time even though the uncertainty rains. Minister Tod 258 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:31,880 Speaker 2: McLay with US Live this morning. It's twenty three minutes 259 00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:36,440 Speaker 2: after five. Ran bridge to the Starma drama.

He'll have well at the end of the month, 263 00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:45,600 Speaker 2: he'll have his party conference, which already the pundits are 264 00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:47,600 Speaker 2: saying is going to be like a beauty contest for 265 00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:51,240 Speaker 2: a potential replacement for him, because he's in so much trouble. 266 00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:54,520 Speaker 2: His number two goes over the housing issues. You've got 267 00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:58,920 Speaker 2: Lord Mandelsson sacked over the Epstein emails and the emails 268 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:03,840 Speaker 2: of just how close they were in relationship, basically best pals. Anyway, 269 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:05,160 Speaker 2: he's been out defending himself. 270 00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 3: I knew of his association with Epstein, but had I 271 00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:15,840 Speaker 3: known then what I know now, i'd never appointed him. 272 00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:18,720 Speaker 2: Here's the thing that we'll get him though. Later in 273 00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:21,360 Speaker 2: this interview, he talks about the fact that he knew 274 00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:25,440 Speaker 2: something was fishy because there were media requests in about 275 00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:29,040 Speaker 2: Mandelson and the emails before he went into the house 276 00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:30,760 Speaker 2: in PMQ's and defended him. 277 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 3: Well, I knew before PMQ's was that there had been 278 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:37,600 Speaker 3: media inquiries. I didn't know the content of the Bloomberg emails, 279 00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 3: and I knew that questions had been put to Peter 280 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:45,520 Speaker 3: that he had not yet answered, and he hadn't answered 281 00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:47,360 Speaker 3: them by the time it got to PMQ's. 282 00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:50,080 Speaker 2: So would you go in and defend the guy stridently 283 00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:52,160 Speaker 2: that you knew there was something fishy going on with 284 00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:55,200 Speaker 2: That's very smart politics from Starma. Anyway, he's got three 285 00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:57,880 Speaker 2: and a half years left in office and it's much harder. 286 00:14:57,920 --> 00:14:59,760 Speaker 2: It's not like the Conservatives when we got your nineteen 287 00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:02,280 Speaker 2: twenty two committee.

It's proof there are, of course, 312 00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:22,880 Speaker 2: those who reckon the solution to all of our problems. 313 00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:25,440 Speaker 2: Is to have a politician sign a piece of paper 314 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:28,920 Speaker 2: and artificially increase the minimum wage or write a blank 315 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:32,960 Speaker 2: check to teachers. As academic results heads south, the question 316 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:36,120 Speaker 2: for them is who's going to pay for it?

That's the point, because there were 510 00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:37,400 Speaker 2: you know, billions of dollars and they've got a big operation. 511 00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:42,520 Speaker 13: Right absolutely absolutely so, yes, that was a record fine 512 00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:46,440 Speaker 13: that was established and I suppose the bank has to 513 00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:48,400 Speaker 13: deal with it now. I think they can appeal. 514 00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:51,000 Speaker 2: I'm not sure, all right, Donna, thank you very much 515 00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:53,480 Speaker 2: for that. Dond to Mayo, Australia correspond It's fifteen away 516 00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:57,840 Speaker 2: from Sex Ryan Bridge. So Howie Clark heading back this morning. 517 00:26:57,880 --> 00:27:00,920 Speaker 2: As the government goes after eating Parks restricts, only six 518 00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:03,840 Speaker 2: artists are allowed to play a total of twelve shows 519 00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:06,520 Speaker 2: a year there, and only on certain days. You've got 520 00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:09,840 Speaker 2: a curfew on weeknights. These are two thousand. I didn't 521 00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:13,920 Speaker 2: realize this until yesterday. Two thousand. Max capacity for conferences there, 522 00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:17,800 Speaker 2: consultation on changes getting underway. Vivbek Heart of the City 523 00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:20,720 Speaker 2: CEO with us this morning. Viv Good morning, Good morning. 524 00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:22,879 Speaker 2: How ridiculous are these rules? 525 00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:26,879 Speaker 6: Well, what I can say is that this is. 526 00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:30,160 Speaker 8: All about driving economic growth and I think the idea 527 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:35,119 Speaker 8: of actually testing this to enable more concerts wherever they 528 00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:37,840 Speaker 8: might be. But it's about the size and the scale. 529 00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:40,800 Speaker 8: You know, if we're going to benchmark ourselves with Brisbane, 530 00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:43,520 Speaker 8: they had forty five I think as I understand that 531 00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:48,639 Speaker 8: their Economic Development Agency supported more than forty five events, 532 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:51,800 Speaker 8: I think it might have been twenty four that generated 533 00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:55,439 Speaker 8: two hundred million economic activity and brought two hundred thousand 534 00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:58,119 Speaker 8: people to the city. So you know, we're talking about 535 00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:03,280 Speaker 8: unlocking the ability to really utilize major events as a 536 00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:04,280 Speaker 8: big economic driver. 537 00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:08,800 Speaker 2: Do we have the same infrastructure and capacity though as Brisbane. 538 00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:12,159 Speaker 8: Has, Well, you know, Eden Park is clearly the largest 539 00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:14,320 Speaker 8: stadium in the country, and we've got others coming on 540 00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:16,800 Speaker 8: stream but not as big. So it's you know, we're 541 00:28:16,800 --> 00:28:20,080 Speaker 8: going to have to do something that fits for purpose here. 542 00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:22,280 Speaker 8: But I think the idea of having a look at 543 00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:26,520 Speaker 8: these rules to see what's possible is important. And you 544 00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:29,600 Speaker 8: know the fact is that these are the opportunities we've 545 00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:33,000 Speaker 8: been asking for we're looking for a long term, sustainable 546 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:37,840 Speaker 8: pipeline of events with sustainable funding. Now that's not what's here. 547 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:42,440 Speaker 8: We've got some immediate money which is terrific to drive things. 548 00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:45,600 Speaker 8: From our perspective, coming out of a decade of major 549 00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:49,160 Speaker 8: construction and disruption, this is the sort of thing that 550 00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:50,960 Speaker 8: can actually start to get things moving. 551 00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:52,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, what do you think they're going to do because 552 00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:55,120 Speaker 2: they've announced this one off money for the major events? 553 00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:56,760 Speaker 2: What do you think they're going to do because they're 554 00:28:56,760 --> 00:28:58,560 Speaker 2: talking or they want a pipeline that they need to 555 00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:02,000 Speaker 2: stuff going forward? Is that? Do you reckon that they're 556 00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:03,680 Speaker 2: going to I reckon the nets are going to go 557 00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:05,760 Speaker 2: to the election with a bid tax. What do you reckon? 558 00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:08,520 Speaker 8: Well, there's going to have to be something, and they've 559 00:29:08,520 --> 00:29:10,800 Speaker 8: pushed back. I understand it. They pushed back on it 560 00:29:10,840 --> 00:29:13,200 Speaker 8: because there was well, they're not going to do it 561 00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:16,600 Speaker 8: this term. There's quite a lot of support for it 562 00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:19,840 Speaker 8: to be national rather than regional. Obviously, there's a big 563 00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:22,760 Speaker 8: push here to g get something locally to get things moving. 564 00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:26,360 Speaker 8: But I think what we do need is to see 565 00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:28,360 Speaker 8: what's going to come beyond that. There has to be 566 00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:31,080 Speaker 8: something if we're going to be in this space, we're 567 00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:33,400 Speaker 8: going to have to have a sustainable funding model, so 568 00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:36,080 Speaker 8: this is really an interim step. I think it's been 569 00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:38,400 Speaker 8: really well received from our perspective. If you look at 570 00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:40,520 Speaker 8: something like a Pink, you know, we had a day 571 00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:43,160 Speaker 8: of six and a half million dollars of spend. You know, 572 00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:46,840 Speaker 8: those sort of concerts make a massive difference, and that's 573 00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:49,000 Speaker 8: really what we want to unlock here. And I think, 574 00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:51,200 Speaker 8: you know, having a lock at these rules to see 575 00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:53,840 Speaker 8: what is possible to really start to grow and make 576 00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:56,440 Speaker 8: sure we're in it for the long term. That's going 577 00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:59,240 Speaker 8: to be key because we have to have the artists 578 00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:02,600 Speaker 8: wanting to come here. It has to be something that's viable. 579 00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:06,040 Speaker 8: But there's certainly a big opportunity from an economic to speak. 580 00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:08,600 Speaker 2: Everyone talks about Pink. I mean it was a great concert, 581 00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:10,520 Speaker 2: Wasn't that. There's no doubting, no knowing that. 582 00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 8: Yeah. 583 00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:13,520 Speaker 2: I appreciate your time this morning.

And this morning. 609 00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:35,680 Speaker 2: I had a look at was sixty billion is their 610 00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:39,800 Speaker 2: exports and one hundred and ninety million to New Zealand 611 00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:40,959 Speaker 2: zero point three percent. 612 00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:44,880 Speaker 14: Tiny.
