Hong Kong, that fire seventy five 29 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:33,080 Speaker 2: did three hundred still missing, very grim. My block is 30 00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:34,160 Speaker 2: still on fire now. 31 00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:37,600 Speaker 5: My daughter and my husband are still not out. The 32 00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:39,920 Speaker 5: husband of my neighbor has already died. 33 00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:43,240 Speaker 2: More on the charges those guys are facing later. Finally, 34 00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:45,919 Speaker 2: this morning, the fifth and final season of Stranger Things 35 00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:47,120 Speaker 2: has dropped on Netflix. 36 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:48,320 Speaker 6: We have a plan. 37 00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:49,720 Speaker 7: It's a bit insane. 38 00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:53,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, we could go wrong, no idea, but I think 39 00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:54,680 Speaker 3: we should find. 40 00:01:54,480 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 8: Out everyone in. 41 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:05,120 Speaker 6: I want to see that actor's horrent look. 42 00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:08,280 Speaker 2: Now, this is underwhelming for two reasons. Firstly, their whole 43 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:11,639 Speaker 2: thing crashed worldwide. The platform crashed worldwide as everyone tries 44 00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:13,960 Speaker 2: to log in it at the same time. The second thing, 45 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:17,080 Speaker 2: so they've got four episodes up so far. Reviews are 46 00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:21,119 Speaker 2: quite mixed. Apparently the show ceasils between thrilling and annoying. 47 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:25,520 Speaker 1: The first word on the News of the Day Early 48 00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:29,720 Speaker 1: edition with Ryan Bridge and r V Supercenter explore r 49 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:33,320 Speaker 1: v's accessories and servicing, all in one news talks'd be. 50 00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:36,360 Speaker 2: Never really watched it. I watched a couple of episodes, 51 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:39,320 Speaker 2: never really got into it, but too ironically, a little 52 00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:42,360 Speaker 2: too strange for me. Just gone eight minutes after five 53 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:44,600 Speaker 2: nine two nine two is the number to text this morning. 54 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:48,320 Speaker 2: Spent half my day yesterday driving around looking for a 55 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:51,640 Speaker 2: car park. How annoying is that couldn't find one? I 56 00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:53,399 Speaker 2: did that trick you know where you go. Hail Mary, 57 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:56,280 Speaker 2: full of grace, please find me a parking space. Didn't work. 58 00:02:56,720 --> 00:03:01,080 Speaker 2: Usually it works. Not that I'm religious, pay park free, park, 59 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 2: I don't care. I just needed to park. Actually, this 60 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:07,040 Speaker 2: is a good thing, and this is how I calmed 61 00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:09,120 Speaker 2: myself down yesterday. So this is a good thing. It 62 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:11,520 Speaker 2: means that people are out shopping and they're outspending. A 63 00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 2: full street is a healthy street. But we need more 64 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:17,519 Speaker 2: car parks, don't we We need more car I don't 65 00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 2: care where you live in New Zealand, you need more 66 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:22,519 Speaker 2: car parks. The city in Auckland, the CRL doesn't take 67 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:25,079 Speaker 2: you everywhere. Won't take you everywhere it finally opens, it's 68 00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:27,639 Speaker 2: not going to take you quickly either. I was chatting 69 00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:32,120 Speaker 2: to Nick Saunty yesterday from Eden Park and he wants 70 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 2: to build fifteen hundred car parks at eden Park. Have 71 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:36,720 Speaker 2: a listen. 72 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 9: We could easily get fifteen hundred car parks on the 73 00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 9: outer oval. That would enable then a footbridge into Kingsland, 74 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,880 Speaker 9: a master plan for the stadium, and we have that master. 75 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 2: Plan and massive profits for Eden Park. 76 00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 10: That's exactly right. 77 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:51,480 Speaker 2: So they are massive profits. So the stadium he worked 78 00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:54,240 Speaker 2: at in Melbourne, the car park was their single largest 79 00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 2: source of revenue more than anything else. No, the concerts, 80 00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:02,080 Speaker 2: the rugby, whatever it was, they go gangbusters, they go nuts. 81 00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:04,800 Speaker 2: Good luck to them. Note yesterday you know he wants 82 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 2: more concerts. The local board voted against giving him more concerts. 83 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 2: I mean, what a bunch of muppets. Anyway, I had 84 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:13,120 Speaker 2: to look at the airports this morning because it's the 85 00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:16,720 Speaker 2: Similars thing with to Stadia. You drive somewhere, you leave 86 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:18,080 Speaker 2: your car for a while, and you go and do 87 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:21,000 Speaker 2: something fun. In this case, it'd be a holiday. Sydney, 88 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:25,479 Speaker 2: Brisbane and Melbourne car parking is between seven and fifteen 89 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:29,240 Speaker 2: percent of their total revenue. Isn't that fascinating? A few 90 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 2: years back they made a loss on everything else except 91 00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:37,040 Speaker 2: car parking for airports, like the profit margins for these 92 00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:40,719 Speaker 2: airports to a pretty incredible forty percent at Melbourne, fifty 93 00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:44,680 Speaker 2: eight percent in Brisbane and in Perth. So why are 94 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 2: more of them being built? Maybe they are and I 95 00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:50,320 Speaker 2: just haven't seen them. I'm seeing parks being taken away, 96 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 2: but where are the new ones that are there to 97 00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:55,440 Speaker 2: replace thement? And I don't care if we're paying loads 98 00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 2: for them? Where are they? No point having an economic 99 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:01,320 Speaker 2: recovery on and shops ready for business when people can't 100 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:04,440 Speaker 2: get there in the first place. Ryan Bridge five eleven 101 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 2: on News Talk SETB. You know the East scooters, the 102 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:10,039 Speaker 2: line scooters that you see driving around. Apparently they're not 103 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:14,839 Speaker 2: allowed to use the bike planes, which I've seen them 104 00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:17,200 Speaker 2: in the bike lane, so they must be breaking the rules. Anyway, 105 00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:19,640 Speaker 2: government wants to change those rules. We'll talk about that 106 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 2: next News Talk Set B on your. 107 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:26,320 Speaker 1: Radio and online on iheard radio of early edition with 108 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:31,160 Speaker 1: Ryan Bridge and are the Supercenter explore? Are these accessories 109 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 1: and servicing more than one? 110 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:35,440 Speaker 2: News Talk set B News Talk SEB. It is five 111 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:37,760 Speaker 2: point thirteen on your Friday morning ride and needing counselor 112 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:40,679 Speaker 2: is busy removing car parking in favor of cycle lanes 113 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:43,479 Speaker 2: and taxi ranks, and that is annoying. The thing is, 114 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:46,360 Speaker 2: you've got to have everything right. The CRL people if 115 00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 2: they want to go to Eden Park and they want 116 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:50,240 Speaker 2: to go on a train, they can go on the CRL. 117 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:51,760 Speaker 2: If they want to go on a bus, you can 118 00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 2: go on a bus. But some people will want to drive, 119 00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:57,200 Speaker 2: and so they should have a car park. They're available 120 00:05:57,240 --> 00:05:59,479 Speaker 2: for them, so let them build the fifteen hundred parks. 121 00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:02,279 Speaker 2: I say. Now, let's get to the retail trade numbers 122 00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:04,719 Speaker 2: out yesterday, because they were rather good.

Food and beverage services up one point six Hardware, 128 00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:27,480 Speaker 2: building and garden supplies up one point seven percent. This 129 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:30,599 Speaker 2: is great, the largest increase by the way since the 130 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 2: December quarter of twenty twenty one for retail activity. It's great. 131 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:36,479 Speaker 2: It's a good sign because it means that for quarter 132 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 2: three GDP should be looking all right. It is fourteen 133 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,880 Speaker 2: after five Grand Bridge Auctually.

This fire in Hong Kong terrible thing 189 00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:55,240 Speaker 2: to see and it's bamboo scaffolding around it. That's a 190 00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:58,840 Speaker 2: big problem. They also apparently used styrofoam to seal the 191 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:01,720 Speaker 2: windows on all of the floors and that it just 192 00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:05,360 Speaker 2: took off. That's what happened. They've arrested three guys. Now, 193 00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 2: there was a maintenance firm that was responsible for the building. 194 00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:13,079 Speaker 2: They've been arrested on manslaughter. Two of them are directors 195 00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 2: and one of them is an engineering consultant, so they've 196 00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:18,079 Speaker 2: been locked up already. They're going to face some kind 197 00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:22,560 Speaker 2: of charges, potentially manslaughter charges. And the residents who were 198 00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:26,080 Speaker 2: inside looking out their windows at the workers on this 199 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 2: bamboo scaffolding said that they were smoking cigarettes. 200 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:31,720 Speaker 6: Rayham Bridge, you're on news. 201 00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:34,320 Speaker 2: Talk, said b The government's considering thinking about moving East 202 00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:37,000 Speaker 2: scooters into cycle lanes as injury costs go through the 203 00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:42,640 Speaker 2: roof es scooter industries cost ACC nearly fourteen million alone 204 00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:46,160 Speaker 2: this year. Patrick Morgan is Cycle Action spokesperson with me 205 00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:49,320 Speaker 2: this morning. Good morning, Patrick, Good morning Mayne. Are you 206 00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:53,200 Speaker 2: happy to share a lane with a limescooter? Yeah? 207 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:55,959 Speaker 12: This is long overdue. It makes sense for this to happen. 208 00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:00,319 Speaker 12: Pedestrians really don't want es scooters on the footpath and 209 00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:03,120 Speaker 12: off on our streets can be quite hostile for people, 210 00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:07,200 Speaker 12: so it makes sense to put estcooters on bike lanes. 211 00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:09,679 Speaker 12: But we're going to need a lot more bike planes, 212 00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:10,080 Speaker 12: aren't we. 213 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:14,160 Speaker 2: You just had to do it, didn't you. You had 214 00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:16,320 Speaker 2: to go there, Patrick? How many more bike planes do 215 00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:16,720 Speaker 2: we need? 216 00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:21,520 Speaker 12: Look, modern cities give people choices about how they get around, 217 00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:24,840 Speaker 12: whether you walk, bike, take the car, the bus, whatever. 218 00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:29,080 Speaker 12: Eastcooter is a part of modern cities. They're here to stay, 219 00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:32,360 Speaker 12: but they need to be managed properly. And that's why 220 00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:35,679 Speaker 12: it's good news that the government is at last updating 221 00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 12: the law to permit them in bike lanes. 222 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:41,160 Speaker 2: No get that, but how many more bike lanes do 223 00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 2: you reckon? We need? 224 00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:46,080 Speaker 12: We don't need a bikeplane on every street, No one's 225 00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:49,320 Speaker 12: asking for that. What we need is bike planes on 226 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:52,480 Speaker 12: busy streets where people want to go, so to get 227 00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:57,120 Speaker 12: people to our schools, workplaces, shops. There's a trend in 228 00:11:57,160 --> 00:12:00,120 Speaker 12: modern cities for people to get around by bike. You 229 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 12: by conscuter. So I think councilors and the government need 230 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:08,800 Speaker 12: to restart building bike planes to meet public demand. 231 00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:13,079 Speaker 2: Right. And is that demand there? Because last time I 232 00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:16,920 Speaker 2: we spent hundreds and millions of dollars probably over billions 233 00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 2: now on cycle ways across the country and cycle networks 234 00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 2: across the country, and yet there's still only two percent 235 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:26,000 Speaker 2: of us commuting to work on them according to the census. 236 00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:28,760 Speaker 6: Yeah, okay, you've got to be aware of that. 237 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:31,240 Speaker 12: We haven't spent nearly that much. Bikelanes are the best 238 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:34,000 Speaker 12: bang for bucket and transport. They're cheap to do, you 239 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:36,960 Speaker 12: can roll them out quickly. There's huge public demand. 240 00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:39,560 Speaker 2: We can see that, and some of them, some of 241 00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:42,480 Speaker 2: them are cost tens and millions of dollars for a 242 00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:43,640 Speaker 2: little tiny one. 243 00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:47,200 Speaker 12: It just doesn't add up to the number you said. 244 00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:49,719 Speaker 12: What we've got is do you know how much we 245 00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 12: had Wellington? It's well under that. But they are great 246 00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:59,960 Speaker 12: dolly for money because they reduce congestion, they get people 247 00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:04,600 Speaker 12: where they're going, and they also give people the choices 248 00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:07,200 Speaker 12: to get around the modern city. So for example, in 249 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:10,559 Speaker 12: Wellington we have added thirty two kilometers of bike lanes 250 00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:14,199 Speaker 12: in just about four years. On some of them. The 251 00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:18,240 Speaker 12: numbers have doubles in just over a year's time. That's 252 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:19,320 Speaker 12: what success looks like. 253 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:21,040 Speaker 2: Doubled from what to what. 254 00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 12: I think the numbers and went around four not around 255 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:29,240 Speaker 12: four thousand people get around by bike every single day 256 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:32,960 Speaker 12: in the numbers even hard it's not imagine all those 257 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:34,400 Speaker 12: people on the bass. 258 00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:37,480 Speaker 2: You know, do you know? Because the number who are 259 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:39,880 Speaker 2: commuting to work is an interesting one, isn't it? And 260 00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:43,080 Speaker 2: that hasn't changed really in the sensus the two most 261 00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:44,040 Speaker 2: recent A. 262 00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:46,760 Speaker 12: No, that's not true at all. It's been going up 263 00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:51,200 Speaker 12: in Wellington for over a Decade's familiar with also in 264 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:55,560 Speaker 12: christ Church. When you're built a good network, people use it. 265 00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:59,240 Speaker 2: But are they? I mean are they? It's like two percent. 266 00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:03,760 Speaker 12: The sensus only measures the journey to work. The trouble 267 00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:06,560 Speaker 12: without is that it doesn't count the journeys that many 268 00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:10,160 Speaker 12: people make, for example, people make in their local communities, 269 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:13,960 Speaker 12: that children make to school children under fifteen, So we 270 00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:16,560 Speaker 12: know that the numbers are much higher than that. We 271 00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:20,080 Speaker 12: also know that people deserve to be safe and by 272 00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:23,560 Speaker 12: planes keep people safe. How can you put a price 273 00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:23,920 Speaker 12: on that? 274 00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:26,560 Speaker 2: All right, Patrick, appreciate your time this morning. Thanks for 275 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:30,160 Speaker 2: being with me. Patrick Morgan's Cycling Action spokesperson. It is 276 00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:33,560 Speaker 2: twenty four minutes after five News TALKSVB. We'll look at 277 00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:36,800 Speaker 2: some on some fallout from that RB and Z report 278 00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:37,800 Speaker 2: yesterday the. 279 00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:41,720 Speaker 1: Early edition full the show podcast on iHeartRadio, how It 280 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:42,520 Speaker 1: by News. 281 00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:45,840 Speaker 2: Talks B, News TALKSB. It is five twenty six. This 282 00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:48,520 Speaker 2: rbn Z update this week made the point that yes 283 00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:51,600 Speaker 2: we are and bounce back mode. It's back on everybody. 284 00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:53,560 Speaker 2: We will grow two and a half percent next year, 285 00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 2: they reckon, But this country needs more than that, and 286 00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:59,560 Speaker 2: it deserves more than that. The problem for us is, 287 00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:01,840 Speaker 2: and how has been for many years, in fact, probably 288 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:04,880 Speaker 2: thirty years now, productivity, how much we get out for 289 00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:08,320 Speaker 2: what we put in. We went sideways, and just recently 290 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:11,640 Speaker 2: it's been falling. As you know, this is a bad thing. 291 00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:15,400 Speaker 2: It's taking us more people, more resources to make less stuff. 292 00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:19,560 Speaker 2: It puts a ceiling on our success. It's a wealth killer. 293 00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:22,440 Speaker 2: Some reckon. It's the canary in the coal mine, the 294 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:26,160 Speaker 2: thing we should care about most because we're basically sleepwalking 295 00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:30,040 Speaker 2: into third world status, which sounds a bit dramatic, like 296 00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:31,920 Speaker 2: falling asleep on a plane and waking up in a 297 00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:34,440 Speaker 2: different country. One day, we will wake up outside of 298 00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:38,120 Speaker 2: the OECD. Wouldn't that feel a bit gutting? The solution 299 00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:42,000 Speaker 2: in part is AI. The World Economic Forum has put 300 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:44,120 Speaker 2: some numbers on this. They show it can boost labour 301 00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:48,120 Speaker 2: productivity and developed countries by up to forty percent over 302 00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:52,360 Speaker 2: fifteen years. Imagine if we achieved something even close to that. Here. 303 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:56,120 Speaker 2: The richer your country, the more you gain, which stands 304 00:15:56,120 --> 00:16:00,960 Speaker 2: to reason because higher labor costs incentivize switching to AI 305 00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:04,280 Speaker 2: to save on your wage bills. Right, the economic upswing 306 00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:07,000 Speaker 2: that we're seeing right now is a business cycle uplift. 307 00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:09,160 Speaker 2: They go up, they go down. But if you're talking 308 00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:13,040 Speaker 2: about making this country a serious economic contender on the 309 00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:16,920 Speaker 2: world stage as we once were, then you need a plan, 310 00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:21,920 Speaker 2: you need a strategy, you need electricity and a shrake 311 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:24,240 Speaker 2: ton of it, and you need to get rid of 312 00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:26,720 Speaker 2: a whole bunch of regulations. Do we have those things 313 00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:29,880 Speaker 2: right now? No, but we need to. I'm hoping that 314 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:32,920 Speaker 2: next year at the election, more than a tax cut 315 00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:37,200 Speaker 2: here or a medicard there, somebody from some parties somewhere 316 00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:40,680 Speaker 2: I don't even care, which paints us a credible path 317 00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:45,600 Speaker 2: towards prosperity and wealth again, because Lord knows we need it. 318 00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:50,040 Speaker 2: Pry and Bridge News TALKSB twenty nine minutes Our five. 319 00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:52,360 Speaker 2: A couple of techs for you this morning, morning, Ryan. 320 00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:55,120 Speaker 2: We needed a new washing machine, and we did our research, 321 00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:57,600 Speaker 2: decided on a brand and a model. It was acquired 322 00:16:57,600 --> 00:16:59,960 Speaker 2: in the Black Friday Sale for eight hundred and eighty 323 00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:04,200 Speaker 2: two dollars, but retail price was one thy fifty five, 324 00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:06,919 Speaker 2: a huge saving of one hundred and seventy three dollars. 325 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:11,320 Speaker 2: That's just a normal sale price, says Michael. Nothing spectacular. 326 00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:13,520 Speaker 2: I don't know that's that seems quite good to me. 327 00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:17,320 Speaker 2: Ryan's cycle lanes have created congestion because they take away 328 00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:20,480 Speaker 2: the car parks. Ryan, I work in South Auckland. Never 329 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:22,440 Speaker 2: seen a person on a bike in the bike plane, 330 00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:25,600 Speaker 2: says Mark. Someone else wants East scooters to have a 331 00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:27,439 Speaker 2: speed limit on them. I think they do in some 332 00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:31,040 Speaker 2: areas if you're around a congested area.

They 341 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:07,240 Speaker 2: are absolutely ropeable, especially the farmers over there about their 342 00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:11,879 Speaker 2: new Bureau of Meterology Forecaster. They've done a revamp of 343 00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:15,199 Speaker 2: their website and be like met Service here.

So 349 00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:35,120 Speaker 2: they call it the bomb, the Bureau of Meteorology. So 350 00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:39,640 Speaker 2: the Bomb changes its website. Been planning the change for years. 351 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:45,840 Speaker 2: It's now a disaster. The hashtag that's trending is change 352 00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:48,359 Speaker 2: it back. That's gone viral. They did a new color 353 00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:50,960 Speaker 2: scheme for the rain radar. No one can understand it. 354 00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:54,159 Speaker 2: The farmers are furious. The fishermen are furious because they 355 00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:57,000 Speaker 2: can no longer put in their GPS coordinates of where 356 00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:59,239 Speaker 2: they are in Australia and then it will give them 357 00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:04,480 Speaker 2: a specific forecast, and they just absolutely outraged. This gets worse. 358 00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:07,199 Speaker 2: So they're hot under the collar already right because of 359 00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:09,480 Speaker 2: the temperature and of the new layout, and then they 360 00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:11,760 Speaker 2: get the news drops on them like a big bike 361 00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 2: a bomb. The cost for the revamp of the website 362 00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:21,160 Speaker 2: was supposed to be four million dollars.

More than two thousand seven hundreds of 369 00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:47,520 Speaker 13: eating households and facts are currently without power, with the 370 00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:50,440 Speaker 13: crews still working around to try and pinpoint the. 371 00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:52,080 Speaker 2: Cause of this major outage. 372 00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:55,640 Speaker 13: Aurora Energy says electricity was cut initially to about six 373 00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:58,159 Speaker 13: and a half thousand customers at around three point thirty 374 00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:02,359 Speaker 13: this morning. The suburbs affected it from Port Chalmers to 375 00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:06,199 Speaker 13: Northeast Valley and teams are still investigating what triggered this 376 00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:07,520 Speaker 13: mass loss of supply. 377 00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:09,560 Speaker 2: Do they know when the power will be back on? 378 00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:10,359 Speaker 6: At the stage? 379 00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:11,520 Speaker 13: No word at the stage. 380 00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:12,680 Speaker 2: Ok.

So christ Church will 384 00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:23,720 Speaker 2: be the new site for this arebus Memorial? 385 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:27,280 Speaker 14: Yes, that's right of course. Today Mark's forty six years 386 00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:29,840 Speaker 14: since two hundred and fifty seven people died when that 387 00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:33,720 Speaker 14: Air New Zealand flight slammed into the mountain in Antarctica 388 00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:37,080 Speaker 14: in nineteen seventy nine. We knew already that two christ 389 00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:39,960 Speaker 14: Church sites had been formally offered by our council. We 390 00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:44,080 Speaker 14: had Craycroft Reserve, which is in Cashmere, effectively in the Porthills, 391 00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:47,200 Speaker 14: and also a spot on the Avon River, of course, 392 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:50,480 Speaker 14: after a plan to build one in Auckland was aborted. 393 00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:54,800 Speaker 14: The Airline Pilots Association president Andrew McKean says christ Church 394 00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:57,840 Speaker 14: is New Zealand's gateway to Antarctica, so it makes sense 395 00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:00,280 Speaker 14: to have a memorial here, given the flight was intended 396 00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:03,600 Speaker 14: to stop over before returning to Auckland. But christ Churge 397 00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:06,800 Speaker 14: mayor Film Major, says he welcomes those impacted by the 398 00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:09,639 Speaker 14: tragedy to the city to remember their loved ones and 399 00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:12,399 Speaker 14: what he calls a tranquil spot of the porthills. He 400 00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:15,360 Speaker 14: says the city holds a place in the tragedy. As 401 00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:16,879 Speaker 14: the plane was due to land here. 402 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:18,200 Speaker 2: It certainly was how's your weather? 403 00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:22,000 Speaker 14: High cloud clearing to find this morning westerly is developing 404 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:26,240 Speaker 14: before turning easterly. The high will be twenty six excellent. 405 00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:29,439 Speaker 2: Thank you, Claire Max and Wellington Max, good morning morning. 406 00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:32,000 Speaker 2: Oh you've got a story about parking, paid parking being 407 00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:33,600 Speaker 2: put on ice. Yeah. 408 00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:37,080 Speaker 15: This is in Petoni, the Lower Hut Harbour side suburb, 409 00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:39,920 Speaker 15: but lovely area I visit quite often. I can tell 410 00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:41,600 Speaker 15: you about a year ago the Hut City Council for 411 00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:44,600 Speaker 15: the first time introduced paid parking along the high street 412 00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:47,760 Speaker 15: Jackson Street. To say it was controversial, wo'd probably be 413 00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:50,480 Speaker 15: a bit of an understatement. I've tried to dodge it 414 00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:52,679 Speaker 15: myself a few times and never been picked up. But 415 00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:56,240 Speaker 15: one business owner told me it certainly is well enforced. 416 00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:59,199 Speaker 15: People are pinged all the time. Hut City has a 417 00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:02,560 Speaker 15: new man, now well known, Ken Laban. He's probably been 418 00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:05,879 Speaker 15: hearing an earful from locals on the campaign trail and 419 00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:07,880 Speaker 15: so over the Christmas and New Year period. The hud 420 00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:11,960 Speaker 15: City Council has announced it's very graciously suspending the enforcement 421 00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:15,560 Speaker 15: of paid parking on Jackson Street and on another nearby 422 00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:19,200 Speaker 15: large car park. Apparently time limits will still remain. I'm 423 00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:22,240 Speaker 15: not sure how strict that will be, but good good 424 00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:25,960 Speaker 15: Ken Laban says it marks the start of a longer 425 00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:29,960 Speaker 15: conversation around parking in the area. Business is down for 426 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:33,800 Speaker 15: what's a wonderful street. Perhaps this bit of bureaucratic greed 427 00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:35,600 Speaker 15: may eventually be reversed for good. 428 00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:38,480 Speaker 2: Sounds like your popular mere already. How's your weather? 429 00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:42,440 Speaker 15: Yes, periods of rain this morning, clearing later strong wind 430 00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:43,959 Speaker 15: twenty one nice one, Thank you. 431 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:48,520 Speaker 2: Neiva in Auckland, Good morning, theres Auckland Transport's got a 432 00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:50,160 Speaker 2: bus thing going on.

Dozens of bus stops 435 00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:56,160 Speaker 10: in Auckland. They've been lived without benches, you know, the benches, 436 00:22:56,200 --> 00:23:00,560 Speaker 10: the seats and apparently they've been stolen, likely for metal 437 00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:04,280 Speaker 10: so ats. Notified police and what we know so far 438 00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:07,119 Speaker 10: is it's sixty five of its three thousand bus shelters 439 00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:11,679 Speaker 10: have been left with no seats. Rebecca Tempoole, she's the spokesperson. 440 00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:15,040 Speaker 10: She says that it uses this is hilarious anti theft 441 00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:18,560 Speaker 10: bolting on the seats, right, yeah, but unfortunately these bolts 442 00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:20,040 Speaker 10: haven't been enough to stop the thefts. 443 00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:23,360 Speaker 2: What are people doing with the seats to putting them 444 00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:24,040 Speaker 2: in their gardens? 445 00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:25,959 Speaker 10: No, well they're just taking them in, you know, like 446 00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:29,520 Speaker 10: stolen for scrap metal.

If they had buses, like if we had 451 00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:41,000 Speaker 2: public transport that came more often. You don't need to 452 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:42,879 Speaker 2: sit down, like when you know, when you're in London 453 00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:45,520 Speaker 2: on the underground, no one's sitting waiting out under standing 454 00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:48,359 Speaker 2: because it's three minutes to your next train. 455 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:50,600 Speaker 10: But you do need to sit down In Auckland, could 456 00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:53,600 Speaker 10: they should give you a bed? And I feel sorry 457 00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:55,439 Speaker 10: for older people as well, because you know what not 458 00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:58,040 Speaker 10: that I take public dreads. Well, when I'm driving past 459 00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:00,439 Speaker 10: and everyone's standing, I went, oh, but you know, if 460 00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:03,360 Speaker 10: you've got older people, yeah, yeah, and encouraging, you need 461 00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:04,080 Speaker 10: to sit down. 462 00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:10,679 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just a need bus stop, hotels, that's the really. 463 00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:13,920 Speaker 10: Because in Mount Eden apparently Mount Eden Road is one 464 00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:16,480 Speaker 10: of the worst and they've you know, like aight's gone 465 00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:18,800 Speaker 10: down there and there's been like five or six of 466 00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:20,919 Speaker 10: those bus stops been hit. 467 00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:21,679 Speaker 14: Terrible. 468 00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:22,320 Speaker 2: How's our weather? 469 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:25,560 Speaker 10: Clowny? Few showers, possibly heavy and thundery from afternoon twenty 470 00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:27,280 Speaker 10: five is the high and other hot one? 471 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:30,919 Speaker 2: Thank you never seventeen away from six a couple of 472 00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:33,480 Speaker 2: quick things. We've had loads of text on the cycle ways, 473 00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:35,920 Speaker 2: as you can imagine. And we spoke to Patrick Morgan 474 00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:38,600 Speaker 2: from the Cycle Action Network earlier in the program and 475 00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:40,359 Speaker 2: I said, oh, there's hundreds of millions a dollar to 476 00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:43,200 Speaker 2: spend on these cycle ways and I was like, maybe 477 00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:45,320 Speaker 2: it's a billion by now. Well I had a little 478 00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:47,879 Speaker 2: look because he said it's nothing like that. So on 479 00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:52,080 Speaker 2: the urban cycle program, this is partly funded by councils, 480 00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:56,840 Speaker 2: partly funded by government. Between twenty fifteen and twenty eighteen 481 00:24:57,400 --> 00:25:00,720 Speaker 2: there was an investment of two hundred million dollars cycling 482 00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:04,359 Speaker 2: as part of that one particular program. So it is 483 00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:07,879 Speaker 2: hundreds of millions, isn't it. And then that's for a 484 00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:10,280 Speaker 2: couple of years. How much has it been since then? 485 00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:14,600 Speaker 2: And then how much more cycling is actually being done? 486 00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:18,520 Speaker 2: I mean, they're just basic questions about whether it's worth 487 00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:21,720 Speaker 2: the investment. Because you also do, as everyone's pointing out, 488 00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:25,320 Speaker 2: takeaway cycle ways too. Now productivity. I was kind of 489 00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:28,159 Speaker 2: bagging our productivity earlier, and it deserves a punch in 490 00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:32,240 Speaker 2: the guts, except if you're a cow. Cow productivity is 491 00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:36,399 Speaker 2: up massively. Dairy farmers achieving more with fewer cows. This 492 00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:40,160 Speaker 2: has shown through your record milk production per cow. Average 493 00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:43,680 Speaker 2: cow producing four hundred and fourteen kilograms of milk solids. 494 00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:47,719 Speaker 2: That is up fourteen kilograms from last season. How are 495 00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:51,640 Speaker 2: they doing it? Well, they're using different feeds, they're using science, 496 00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:55,280 Speaker 2: they're using technology. They've been smart about it. Sixteen to 497 00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:56,720 Speaker 2: six News Talk. 498 00:25:56,560 --> 00:26:01,520 Speaker 1: SEBB International Correspondence with ends it insurance, peace of mind 499 00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:03,639 Speaker 1: for New Zealand business sit in. 500 00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:05,920 Speaker 2: The do Talk ZB.

NIT migration is down quite drastically. Vincent 503 00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:16,119 Speaker 2: McAvennie are UK europe correspondent, Vincent, good morning, good morning. 504 00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:17,879 Speaker 2: So well what's the number. 505 00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:21,600 Speaker 8: Well, this is a huge drop. It's down to two 506 00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:26,040 Speaker 8: hundred and four thousand from six hundred and forty nine 507 00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:30,560 Speaker 8: last year. It's driven by fewer arrivals for work and 508 00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:34,240 Speaker 8: study reasons. And this is a huge drop from the 509 00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:37,399 Speaker 8: last five years when it speak sort of rose in 510 00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:40,800 Speaker 8: Boris Johnson's time to almost a million in terms of 511 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:44,360 Speaker 8: net migration, and this is something that labor will want 512 00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:48,000 Speaker 8: to celebrate. However, within those figures, around one hundred and 513 00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:52,520 Speaker 8: thirty three thousand are people who have claimed asylum. So 514 00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:56,320 Speaker 8: critics will be saying that whilst the migration figures show 515 00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:58,760 Speaker 8: we've got fewer people coming in on the sort of 516 00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:02,200 Speaker 8: traditional routes of a playing to come for working and studying, 517 00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:04,959 Speaker 8: you still have a big number of people arriving here 518 00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:06,840 Speaker 8: for asylum and that means that you're sort of not 519 00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:10,040 Speaker 8: controlling as much as some people might like who is 520 00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:11,400 Speaker 8: coming in and out of the country. 521 00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:15,440 Speaker 2: Now, the limited form of military service that's going into 522 00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:17,520 Speaker 2: France that have released the details. 523 00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:20,919 Speaker 8: Yeah, that's right. France is following a number of European 524 00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:24,280 Speaker 8: countries which are bringing back forms of national service. Now 525 00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:27,280 Speaker 8: this is a voluntary form, but they're looking to get 526 00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:31,840 Speaker 8: around fifty thousand young French men and women involved in 527 00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:36,080 Speaker 8: this in the next five or so years. They're wanting 528 00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:39,360 Speaker 8: this to sort of be ready to sort of support 529 00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:41,600 Speaker 8: the nation in any kind of emergency. And this is 530 00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:44,879 Speaker 8: with the renewed threat of Russia from Europe. And as 531 00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:47,560 Speaker 8: I said, the latest country that's following it, Belgium, has 532 00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:50,840 Speaker 8: also done this. The Netherlands, they have introduced schemes and 533 00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:54,840 Speaker 8: some countries like Lithuania, Latvia, they never really got rid 534 00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:58,040 Speaker 8: of theirs. So it's something that European countries are considering. 535 00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:00,119 Speaker 8: But whether or not young people want to do it 536 00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:00,880 Speaker 8: means to be seen. 537 00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:04,320 Speaker 2: Vincent mcaviney are UK europe correspondent, to appreciate your time. 538 00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:06,760 Speaker 2: Just to the US very quickly. You know, these two 539 00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:10,800 Speaker 2: guards that were shot, to National Guard members who were shot, 540 00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:14,160 Speaker 2: they're still in a critical condition. Turns out the guy 541 00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:17,240 Speaker 2: who's accused of doing it, who also was shot by them. 542 00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:21,439 Speaker 2: Trump's calling it an active terror. But this guy worked 543 00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:25,600 Speaker 2: with the CIA in Kandahar. He was actually withdrawn from 544 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:29,840 Speaker 2: Afghanistan September twenty twenty one. That's when he entered the States, 545 00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:33,200 Speaker 2: so used to work. There was some CIA backed military 546 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:36,919 Speaker 2: units that he was operating with. So yes, he's a 547 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:40,480 Speaker 2: very bad person, but also at some point worked with 548 00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:44,040 Speaker 2: the US government. It's eleven away from six Ryan bridsch 549 00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:46,800 Speaker 2: So we're getting a public inquiry into the Tom Phillips case. 550 00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:50,160 Speaker 2: Justice Simon Moore case will run it. It's behind closed doors. 551 00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:53,760 Speaker 2: They're going to look at agencies, including the police, did 552 00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:56,720 Speaker 2: they do everything they could to protect those children. Jane 553 00:28:56,760 --> 00:28:59,120 Speaker 2: Cearle Child Matters Chief executive with me this morning, Jane, 554 00:28:59,160 --> 00:28:59,880 Speaker 2: Good morning. 555 00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:01,200 Speaker 12: Good morning Ryan. 556 00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:04,080 Speaker 2: Now, the fact that it's private, you know that it's 557 00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:05,720 Speaker 2: behind closed doors, good thing. 558 00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:09,000 Speaker 5: It is a good thing. I think it's entirely appropriate 559 00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:11,800 Speaker 5: that we have this review. It's quite wide reaching, it's 560 00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:14,760 Speaker 5: got a practical focus, but most importantly, it has been 561 00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:17,080 Speaker 5: done to protect the rights of those involved. So I'm 562 00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:18,840 Speaker 5: hopeful it's going to be a constructive process. 563 00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:22,160 Speaker 2: Is what are we actually hoping to change here or achieve? 564 00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:26,360 Speaker 5: Well, you know, the tragedy of this case doesn't hide 565 00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:29,080 Speaker 5: the fact that we still have learnings to get from it, 566 00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:32,840 Speaker 5: and if we can improve the system. Whatever recommendations come 567 00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:35,280 Speaker 5: out of this is not as important as if they 568 00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:38,200 Speaker 5: are actually implemented, because there's many recommendations from reviews that 569 00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:41,440 Speaker 5: are never implemented. So what we want is strengthening the 570 00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:42,800 Speaker 5: system that we can learn from it. 571 00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:46,200 Speaker 2: This is such for audoing a Tamadikian agencies like that. 572 00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:48,480 Speaker 2: It's between a rock and a hard place, aren't they. 573 00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:51,200 Speaker 2: Because you go in and you take children away and 574 00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:53,560 Speaker 2: people say, oh, you're taking you know, you count steal 575 00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:57,080 Speaker 2: children from from families, and then you don't, and then 576 00:29:57,080 --> 00:29:59,880 Speaker 2: you're criticized if you don't. It's a hard place to 577 00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:00,640 Speaker 2: isn't it. 578 00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:05,400 Speaker 5: Absolutely, and it's very easy for the public and media 579 00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:07,920 Speaker 5: to judge without having all the facts. I'm very pleased 580 00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:10,560 Speaker 5: to see that this review has a practical focus and 581 00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:12,840 Speaker 5: that word was used because I think it's important to 582 00:30:12,920 --> 00:30:16,320 Speaker 5: understand that people make decisions and those agencies on the 583 00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:17,840 Speaker 5: information they have at the time. 584 00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:20,880 Speaker 2: Jane, appreciate your time this morning.
