1 00:00:01,200 --> 00:00:05,320 Speaker 1: The issues, the interviews and the insight. Ryan Bridge on 2 00:00:05,559 --> 00:00:09,840 Speaker 1: early edition with our the Supercenter explore our the successories 3 00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:12,800 Speaker 1: and servicing more than one news talks. They'd be good morning. 4 00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:15,040 Speaker 2: It's Tuesday, six after five. We'll look at the rates 5 00:00:15,080 --> 00:00:17,880 Speaker 2: cap before six this morning. Leslie's in Australia for US 6 00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:21,720 Speaker 2: the International Convention Center. Just how international is it really? 7 00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:24,080 Speaker 2: We'll ask the question plus more Key Wes reckon they 8 00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:26,400 Speaker 2: can buy a house than they did a year ago. 9 00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:28,040 Speaker 2: But where. 10 00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:30,600 Speaker 1: The agenda? 11 00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:34,800 Speaker 2: It is Tuesday, the two of December. The UK Budget 12 00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:37,640 Speaker 2: Office about as dumb as the budget that they accidentally 13 00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:38,839 Speaker 2: released last week. 14 00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:41,760 Speaker 3: It was to do with using atensially a piece of 15 00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:44,120 Speaker 3: software and I think the analogy is drawn here that 16 00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:46,480 Speaker 3: would be more suitable for a small or medium sized 17 00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:49,519 Speaker 3: enterprise than a major government that may have made some 18 00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:52,520 Speaker 3: sense in termas of your independence, but made little sense 19 00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:56,040 Speaker 3: and centers. The critical security of the data involves. 20 00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:58,400 Speaker 2: Whoop see Meanwhile, Starmer's been accused of hyping up a 21 00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:02,000 Speaker 2: fiscal crisis to pay for new welfare programs, blaming a 22 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:03,720 Speaker 2: black hole that actually didn't really exist. 23 00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:07,880 Speaker 4: There was no br productivity review. The result of that 24 00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:11,160 Speaker 4: was there was sixteen billion pounds less than we might 25 00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:13,360 Speaker 4: otherwise have had. So we had, on the one hand, 26 00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:15,959 Speaker 4: sixteen billion pounds less than we might otherwise have had. 27 00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:19,440 Speaker 4: We had clear commitments that we'd made throughout the process 28 00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:22,640 Speaker 4: as to what it was we were going to achieve. Therefore, 29 00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:27,000 Speaker 4: against that backdrop, it was inevitable that we would always 30 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:29,440 Speaker 4: have to raise revenue. So there's no misleading. 31 00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:31,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, we get, we get. We get explaining as losing 32 00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:34,000 Speaker 2: in politics. And that sounded a hell of a lot 33 00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:36,280 Speaker 2: like explaining, didn't it. Let's go to the US where 34 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:39,520 Speaker 2: lawmakers demanding answers this over the strikes on the Venezuelan 35 00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:43,119 Speaker 2: drug votes. Washington Post reported that there was a follow 36 00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:47,600 Speaker 2: up strike ordered to kill the survivors of an initial strike. 37 00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:48,320 Speaker 5: He said he. 38 00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 1: Did not want them. 39 00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 5: He didn't even know what people were talking about. So 40 00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 5: we'll look at we'll look into it. But no, I 41 00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:59,880 Speaker 5: wouldn't have wanted that a second strike. The first strike 42 00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 5: is very lethal. 43 00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:04,960 Speaker 2: It was fine to the movies. Disney's Zootopia two has 44 00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:07,400 Speaker 2: gone gang buses at the box office, proof we still 45 00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:08,080 Speaker 2: love the cinema. 46 00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 1: Let me ask you, do you think we're a good ten? 47 00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:12,760 Speaker 6: Of course, az. 48 00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:15,880 Speaker 7: I just wish I knew what we had to do 49 00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:17,480 Speaker 7: to prove it to everyone else. 50 00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:20,320 Speaker 2: Betured the perimeter, snoop a little behind. 51 00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:24,080 Speaker 1: Nothing, bebout no snake? Has that put in Utopia in 52 00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:24,600 Speaker 1: for Raver? 53 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:28,240 Speaker 2: Yeah? Massive? So five hundred and half a billion dollars 54 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:32,520 Speaker 2: worldwide since opening, the biggest international opening for an animated 55 00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:36,840 Speaker 2: film ever and the fourth biggest global debut of any movie. 56 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:37,680 Speaker 2: Who would have. 57 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 1: Thought Ryan Bridge on earlier edition with r VS Supercenter 58 00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:48,119 Speaker 1: explore r V successor Reason servicing all in one news talks. 59 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:51,160 Speaker 2: It'd be used talks. Heb it's nine minutes after five, 60 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:53,360 Speaker 2: nine ninety two is the numbered text. Great to have 61 00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:55,520 Speaker 2: your company this morning. Do flip me a message, love 62 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,160 Speaker 2: to hear from you. I'll get to the Mackenzie has 63 00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:01,480 Speaker 2: just handed me the most ridiculous story about Bacon. I'll 64 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:03,959 Speaker 2: get to that in a second. I can't resist. But 65 00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:07,280 Speaker 2: housing and buying your first house, getting on the property ladder. 66 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:09,800 Speaker 2: We had a report from ASB yesterday. We've got another 67 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:13,239 Speaker 2: one today. This one's from Kiwi Bank, basically saying the 68 00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:15,720 Speaker 2: Kiwi dream of owning a property is alive and well 69 00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:18,520 Speaker 2: and there's no surprise in that. But what is interesting 70 00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:23,079 Speaker 2: is the number of kiwi's of renters who now feel 71 00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:25,600 Speaker 2: that they are able to get on too, or at 72 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:27,919 Speaker 2: least that they're not locked out of the property market, 73 00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:31,160 Speaker 2: Like it's not an impossible thing. Hard, yes, impossible. No, 74 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 2: So fifty seven percent of non owners feel locked out 75 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:38,720 Speaker 2: of the property market, and that still sounds a bit bad, 76 00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 2: but it's actually an improvement of six percent on last year. 77 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:45,280 Speaker 2: And this stands to reason prices are coming down. People 78 00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 2: feel that they can afford a house, which is actually 79 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,760 Speaker 2: a good thing because in society, and here I sound 80 00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 2: like I'm lecturing you, but this this is true of 81 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:58,600 Speaker 2: any society if people don't feel like they can have 82 00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 2: a stake in it, if they Judith Collins talks quite 83 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:04,640 Speaker 2: eloquently about this, more eloquently than I could. If you 84 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:07,880 Speaker 2: don't feel like you can get on the property ladder, 85 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:10,240 Speaker 2: like you can buy a piece of the land and 86 00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:13,160 Speaker 2: the society you live in, then you go to hell 87 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:15,560 Speaker 2: in a hand basket. No one has buy and you 88 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:20,200 Speaker 2: basically end up worth the guillotines. Right. So this is important, 89 00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:23,400 Speaker 2: and what this tells us is that price is coming 90 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:26,440 Speaker 2: down means that people feel like they can get on 91 00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 2: the ladder. They have a shot, they have a chance, 92 00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:30,520 Speaker 2: and more people this year feel they have a shot 93 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:33,279 Speaker 2: than last year. That's a good thing. That's a great thing. Now, 94 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 2: what is interesting about these numbers that have come out 95 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:39,520 Speaker 2: this morning is the fact that people are willing to 96 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,840 Speaker 2: give up a few things in order to buy buy 97 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:46,240 Speaker 2: a house. Yes, I'm willing to cut my cloth. I'm 98 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:49,440 Speaker 2: willing to cut some expenses. Seventy percent of people said 99 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 2: they were willing to move to a different area to 100 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:54,680 Speaker 2: buy a house, which I think is fascinating. If you're 101 00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:57,280 Speaker 2: a first home buyer, you're willing to move town or 102 00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 2: city to buy a house or buy a house in 103 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 2: another town is city which maybe you don't live in. 104 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:05,160 Speaker 2: And I think that that is a good sign. It 105 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:08,200 Speaker 2: is a healthy sign. It means people. The only thing 106 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 2: in this that I think is bad is that people 107 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 2: aren't willing to compromise on size. Now, when I bought 108 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:18,280 Speaker 2: my first house, it was tiny. I'm talking teeny tiny, 109 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:22,400 Speaker 2: like forty something square meters. I mean I could barely 110 00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 2: fit in it. I'm quite a tall person, and I 111 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:27,960 Speaker 2: could probably from head to toe, lie down in the 112 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:30,360 Speaker 2: floor in the bedroom and go from wall to wall 113 00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:33,080 Speaker 2: that's how small it was. But you've got to do 114 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:34,760 Speaker 2: these things. That's just what you've got to do. If you, 115 00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:37,240 Speaker 2: I mean, if you want where there's a world, there's 116 00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:39,560 Speaker 2: a way, I think is the point. And if you 117 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:42,680 Speaker 2: really want to get something, if you're really determined and 118 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:44,920 Speaker 2: it is your dream and it is your goal, you 119 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 2: can make it happen. Bright and Bread read five twelve. 120 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:50,440 Speaker 2: Now the bacon story. We've got to get to this. 121 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 2: So smelling bacon. This is embargoed until five am, so 122 00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:56,920 Speaker 2: we're twelve minutes into being able to talk about it. 123 00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:00,039 Speaker 2: I know, smelling bacon in the womb is lenked to 124 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:03,480 Speaker 2: a high risk of adult obesity. Is this for real? 125 00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 2: It's a study. According a study on mice, the smell 126 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 2: of fatty foods during pregnancy might put babies at higher 127 00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:16,200 Speaker 2: risk of obesity later in life. This is according to 128 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:20,240 Speaker 2: overseas research. Scientists fed two groups of pregnant mice the 129 00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:24,680 Speaker 2: same healthy diet, but added artificial bacon flavor to the 130 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:29,200 Speaker 2: food of one group, knowing that the bacon smell molecules 131 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:31,600 Speaker 2: would reach the pups through the liquid in the womb. 132 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:36,960 Speaker 2: The mice that were exposed to fatty food fatty smells 133 00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 2: of foods, used up less energy, gain more weight, showed 134 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:44,840 Speaker 2: signs of diabetes, and had brain changes linked to obesity. 135 00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:48,440 Speaker 2: So be careful what you're cooking around a pregnant woman. 136 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:50,719 Speaker 2: Is the moral of the story. I suppose if we 137 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,719 Speaker 2: two believe it. Thirteen after five, we'll took to squirrel 138 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:54,680 Speaker 2: on home ownership. 139 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:58,160 Speaker 1: Next the first word on the News of the Day, 140 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:01,960 Speaker 1: Fairly editioned with Ryan Rich and r V Super Center 141 00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:06,680 Speaker 1: explore RV's accessories and servicing more than one, News Talks AB. 142 00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:08,800 Speaker 2: Quarter past five and News Talks B. I'll tell you 143 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:10,560 Speaker 2: how you might be able to save some money on 144 00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 2: your car insurance bill. It's a really weird little trick, 145 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 2: but I will tell you just after five point thirty 146 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:19,360 Speaker 2: this morning. Now, building residential building consents, and I stress 147 00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 2: residential because non residential ain't looking so good. But residential 148 00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:26,920 Speaker 2: building consents we're on the rise for October, especially townhouses. 149 00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:31,680 Speaker 2: Non residential consents unfortunately in decline, and they reckon building 150 00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:34,560 Speaker 2: can work. Residential building will pick up next year, which 151 00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:37,920 Speaker 2: is long overdue, isn't it. It's quarter past five, Ryan 152 00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:40,400 Speaker 2: Bridge More renters reckon they have a shot at buying 153 00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:42,920 Speaker 2: a home of their own. Kibank's latest housing report out 154 00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:45,800 Speaker 2: this morning, fifty seven percent of non owners feel lockdown 155 00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:48,200 Speaker 2: of the market, which still sounds bad, but actually an 156 00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:51,080 Speaker 2: improvement of six percent on last year. The key we 157 00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:54,200 Speaker 2: property dream seems to be alive and well. David Cunningham 158 00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 2: is with us Chief Squirrel at Squirrel Mortgages. David, good morning, Hi, Ryan, 159 00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:02,480 Speaker 2: good good. More that more renters think it's possible. 160 00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:07,800 Speaker 8: Well, yeah, I think we've got this Goldie locks condition 161 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 8: really for first home Bars and interest strats are down, 162 00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:13,320 Speaker 8: so that makes renters think it's better. You know, rents 163 00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:15,040 Speaker 8: have come down a little bit, so maybe they're able 164 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 8: to save a bit more if they're getting the benefit 165 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:19,080 Speaker 8: of a lower rent. You know, your key with Saber 166 00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 8: balance has gone up quite a bit, so your deposits 167 00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:25,680 Speaker 8: getting easier. There's heats of choice out there, properly price 168 00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:27,640 Speaker 8: to fullum. There's heats of choice and there's not a 169 00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 8: lot of competition, So we call it a Goldilocks time 170 00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 8: for first time buys. It's been that way for a 171 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:34,560 Speaker 8: year and it's you know, it looks like at least 172 00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:37,760 Speaker 8: another year of that where there's not a lot of 173 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:39,800 Speaker 8: competition for first time by so I'm not surprised to 174 00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 8: see more people saying that it's possible. But there is 175 00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:45,960 Speaker 8: this cohort of New Zealanders for whom it's sort of 176 00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:48,600 Speaker 8: the dream that's probably not going to happen, you know, 177 00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 8: generally related to much lower income. 178 00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:54,880 Speaker 2: Yes, but that that problem has always existed, hasn't it. Well, 179 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:57,320 Speaker 2: I mean, it's certainly gotten worse over the last decade 180 00:08:57,400 --> 00:08:59,240 Speaker 2: or two, but it's a yeah, that's right. 181 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:02,360 Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, that's right. I mean there's always been about 182 00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:04,680 Speaker 8: sixty five percent home ownership in New Zealander. You know, 183 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:07,080 Speaker 8: it's going up and down a little bit over time, 184 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:09,480 Speaker 8: but it's generally about two thirds of New Zealanders get 185 00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:11,080 Speaker 8: to own their own home, and it's been that way 186 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,480 Speaker 8: for fifty to seventy five years. To be honest, what. 187 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:15,680 Speaker 2: Did you say, Because you're obviously at Squirrel Mortgage is 188 00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:17,679 Speaker 2: dealing with a lot of first home buyers, a lot 189 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:20,440 Speaker 2: of home buyers. This textas says Ryan, No, you're wrong 190 00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:22,840 Speaker 2: about half of under thirties in this country will never 191 00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:25,440 Speaker 2: own a house. The bird has flowing. Talking it up 192 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:28,000 Speaker 2: won't help them. I'm afraid how much of this do 193 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:31,280 Speaker 2: you think just personally comes down to like attitude. I 194 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:36,400 Speaker 2: know that sounds almost like gas lighting. Because some people 195 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:39,280 Speaker 2: can't afford to buy a house. I get that, But 196 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:44,560 Speaker 2: for others they can, they just don't think they can. 197 00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:48,440 Speaker 8: Yeah, look to the honest. I respect you know what 198 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:52,120 Speaker 8: your listeners said. But to be honest, it is easier 199 00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:54,480 Speaker 8: now than it was. When I bought my house in 200 00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:57,320 Speaker 8: nineteen ninety. I paid one hundred and fifty thousand. I 201 00:09:57,360 --> 00:09:59,599 Speaker 8: had say, fifteen thousand, which was at that time a 202 00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:01,400 Speaker 8: lot of mone the bank of Mom and Dad good 203 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:04,080 Speaker 8: our banker. Mom and Dad chipped in fifteen thousand, and 204 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 8: my payments were seven hundred bucks a week. Today that 205 00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:10,480 Speaker 8: would be two thousand, two hundred bucks. But today that 206 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:14,280 Speaker 8: same average mortgage seven hundred thousand dollar house one hundred 207 00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:17,160 Speaker 8: and forty thousand dollars mortgage is the equivalent is a 208 00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 8: one thousand and four to three six. So you know, 209 00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:22,360 Speaker 8: it's actually significantly cheaper now than it has been for 210 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:25,320 Speaker 8: a long Cynaney compared back then. So you know, us 211 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:27,160 Speaker 8: old guy said it tough, you know, you could say, 212 00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 8: but in reality, if you've got the motivation, you've got Kiwisaver, 213 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:34,280 Speaker 8: which has been an absolute game changer almost every first 214 00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:37,640 Speaker 8: term by uses kiwisaver, they wouldcraw forty three thousand dollars 215 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 8: per person. Last year there were forty thousand people that 216 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:43,080 Speaker 8: did that, so it's it's actually been the enabler. So 217 00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 8: it is within the reach of more people, perhaps than 218 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:47,040 Speaker 8: so a few years ago. 219 00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:50,120 Speaker 2: David, appreciate your time this morning.

One hundred and twenty one events 232 00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:29,840 Speaker 2: already for twenty twenty six on the on the calendar. 233 00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:33,560 Speaker 2: What interested to know what proportion of those are local? 234 00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:34,720 Speaker 2: Versus international. 235 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:39,160 Speaker 9: Yeah, so we estimate that you know, each year, about 236 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:41,320 Speaker 9: thirty percent of the number of events that we're going 237 00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 9: to do will be international. We're hoping that it'll be more, 238 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:46,280 Speaker 9: but as you can imagine, we've still got lots of 239 00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:49,120 Speaker 9: events coming in and the team we're working on converting 240 00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:51,560 Speaker 9: those every single day. So for us at the moment, 241 00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:55,040 Speaker 9: where we're looking toward targeting about thirty percent and that 242 00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:59,600 Speaker 9: will equate to about thirty three thousand new international visitors 243 00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:00,320 Speaker 9: that will is it. 244 00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:02,199 Speaker 8: We'll visit New. 245 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:05,720 Speaker 9: Zealand and Auckland every year and that will look to 246 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:08,280 Speaker 9: bring about ninety million dollars of economic impact to the 247 00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:09,200 Speaker 9: city and the country. 248 00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:11,640 Speaker 2: So that's what you're forecasting. And is that what you're 249 00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:14,199 Speaker 2: seeing with the events that you've got booked so far? 250 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:18,000 Speaker 9: Yeah? Absolutely, I mean for twenty twenty six out of 251 00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:20,200 Speaker 9: one hundred and twenty one, we do have some great 252 00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:23,720 Speaker 9: international congresses already concerned. A good example of one of 253 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:28,280 Speaker 9: those is the Coral Reef Symposium, which is coming in July. 254 00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:30,840 Speaker 9: That's seeing two thousand people come for a conference for 255 00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:33,640 Speaker 9: four days. That alone is around five million dollars of 256 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:35,760 Speaker 9: economic impact. And that's just one of the ones that 257 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:38,959 Speaker 9: we've got coming for next year, and a few more 258 00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:40,240 Speaker 9: to announce shortly, seeing too. 259 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:43,880 Speaker 2: Brilliant, brilliant How many are coming here specifically because of 260 00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:47,400 Speaker 2: the venue, like they would you know that they wouldn't 261 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:49,040 Speaker 2: have happened anyway, you know what I mean? 262 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:53,240 Speaker 9: Yeah, absolutely, I mean that's all that international business Ryan. 263 00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:56,200 Speaker 9: You know, a lot of them wouldn't have been able 264 00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:58,680 Speaker 9: to come to New Zealand without this convention center of 265 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 9: scale and being able to who you know, hold these 266 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:04,640 Speaker 9: conferences as sort of fifteen hundred and two thousand people. 267 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:06,840 Speaker 9: So at the moment, you know, we've got a handful 268 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:08,760 Speaker 9: of those that are sitting around those numbers for the 269 00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:11,160 Speaker 9: next few years, and quite a solid pipeline that we're 270 00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:13,920 Speaker 9: working on to convert because we've got inquiries all the 271 00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 9: way out unto twenty thirty two at the moment for 272 00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:19,200 Speaker 9: these big congresses.

This rates cap 296 00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:25,320 Speaker 2: popular politics, no doubt about it, and local government needs 297 00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:26,960 Speaker 2: a good cack in the pants. We all know that. 298 00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:29,920 Speaker 2: But does a two to four percent band simply mean 299 00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:32,480 Speaker 2: that we're going to pay more in other Sneaky little 300 00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:35,320 Speaker 2: fees rates aren't the only way these guys make money 301 00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:38,520 Speaker 2: off us. We also pay for specific things like resource 302 00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:44,760 Speaker 2: and building consents, limb requests, dog registrations, campgrounds. Will hairdressers 303 00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:47,760 Speaker 2: have to pay more to register under the Health Act? Yes, 304 00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:50,520 Speaker 2: this is a thing in Kaipita, for example, I had 305 00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:52,640 Speaker 2: a look this morning. It'll cost your business four hundred 306 00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:54,520 Speaker 2: and twenty three bucks. Thank you very much to do that. 307 00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:57,680 Speaker 2: Will we pay more for a burial plot at the 308 00:14:57,720 --> 00:15:01,000 Speaker 2: local cemetery? That's another fee? Will we pay more to 309 00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:05,360 Speaker 2: register our dogs? The options are endless. Waikato District Council 310 00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:08,080 Speaker 2: has a document setting out the fees that it wax 311 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:14,680 Speaker 2: on ratepayers. It's forty five pages long. Four five The governments, 312 00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:18,840 Speaker 2: you know, they've done this too. They can change the 313 00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:22,160 Speaker 2: revenue levers and stop them pulling one, but they haven't 314 00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:25,080 Speaker 2: stopped them pulling the other. And actually, if you look 315 00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:27,560 Speaker 2: at it, this is exactly what the government itself has 316 00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:31,320 Speaker 2: been doing. We're seeing the rise of the fee. Twenty 317 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 2: twenty six will be the year of the fee, the surcharge. 318 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:37,800 Speaker 2: The Coalition may have cut taxes, but they are also 319 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:40,800 Speaker 2: overseeing one of the biggest hikes in fees and charges 320 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:45,200 Speaker 2: of any government in recent history. Road user charges, user 321 00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:50,640 Speaker 2: pays road tolls, congestion chargings coming, fines are going up, 322 00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:54,400 Speaker 2: immigration fees, airport fees, you name it. If you can 323 00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:58,000 Speaker 2: name it, chances are it's heading north. It's a strategy. 324 00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:01,160 Speaker 2: The top line number comes down, but all the little 325 00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:05,320 Speaker 2: bits that they hope we won't notice go up. Councils 326 00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:08,280 Speaker 2: will be no different. Add in the water done well fee, 327 00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:12,160 Speaker 2: which is separate from this, remember, which will be massive 328 00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:14,760 Speaker 2: also in some places. And the reality is, I think 329 00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:17,520 Speaker 2: that no ratepayer will feel like they're getting a better 330 00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:21,640 Speaker 2: deal post cap band. The question is whether this is 331 00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:23,000 Speaker 2: a reason not to do it, of course, and the 332 00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:26,920 Speaker 2: answer is probably not.

You think the UK government budget blunder was bad. 354 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:25,359 Speaker 2: They obviously released quite sensitive information while they've had to 355 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:29,080 Speaker 2: stop that because of an outage and it's affecting New Zealand. Two. 356 00:17:29,119 --> 00:17:29,640 Speaker 2: More on that. 357 00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:40,240 Speaker 1: Next on your radio and online on iHeartRadio Early edition 358 00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:44,679 Speaker 1: with Ryan Bridge and are the Supercenter explore are these 359 00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:49,560 Speaker 1: accessories and servicing?

How's poor old Wellington and cope without 363 00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:01,439 Speaker 2: more disco dunnies, you know, the toilets that light up 364 00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:03,639 Speaker 2: like Christmas trees. Will ask the mayor. Also, we'll go 365 00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:06,639 Speaker 2: to Australia correspondent lots to talk about the AX had 366 00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:10,760 Speaker 2: a glitch yesterday, a technical problem, and fifty companies had 367 00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:13,440 Speaker 2: to be put in a trading hole. There are sensitive information, 368 00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:15,920 Speaker 2: you know, market information that they released couldn't get out 369 00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:19,159 Speaker 2: because of this technical problem, and the investors called it 370 00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:21,800 Speaker 2: a very embarrassing mistake, one that's been plaguing them for 371 00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:23,720 Speaker 2: a while. And the big problem is that if you 372 00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:26,439 Speaker 2: had dual listed companies on the z X and the 373 00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:29,919 Speaker 2: ASEX and they were releasing information, they still have to 374 00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:33,240 Speaker 2: release it in New Zealand, but couldn't necessarily release it 375 00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:35,720 Speaker 2: in Australia. So that causes a big problem, big headache 376 00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:39,080 Speaker 2: for them. Now I told you I would give you 377 00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:42,119 Speaker 2: a little hot tip on how you can save money 378 00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:45,399 Speaker 2: on your car insurance. And this is again this has 379 00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:47,120 Speaker 2: come from Australia. It feels a little bit like we're 380 00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:49,919 Speaker 2: doing Australian news today, but here it is. So an 381 00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:53,639 Speaker 2: Aussie driver gets finds a bit of a loophole, goes 382 00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:57,040 Speaker 2: for insurance with NRMA, which is an insurance company over there, 383 00:18:57,520 --> 00:19:00,879 Speaker 2: and just for fun, techs this guy's ben is twenty 384 00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:03,960 Speaker 2: two years old, puts his details in and just for fun, 385 00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:07,240 Speaker 2: just to see what happens, ticks non binary instead of 386 00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:11,080 Speaker 2: mail when it comes to gender, and the car insurance 387 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:14,840 Speaker 2: quote drops by eight hundred bucks a year if you 388 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:17,919 Speaker 2: tick the non binary box. So the question is our 389 00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:20,680 Speaker 2: non binary driver is safer and the answer is, well, 390 00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:23,359 Speaker 2: there's no evidence to say that they are or they aren't. 391 00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:27,920 Speaker 2: This is interesting because then a radio station picks it 392 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:31,679 Speaker 2: up over there two GBBN Fordham and Sydney and says, look, 393 00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:35,000 Speaker 2: this is a bit ridiculous, asks the insurance company, and 394 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:39,040 Speaker 2: they say, well, it's not discrimination against males or because 395 00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:42,920 Speaker 2: it's also non binary cheaper than female. So the non 396 00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:45,880 Speaker 2: binary was cheaper than male and female drivers. They say, 397 00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:49,240 Speaker 2: we're not discriminating against anybody, it's just our policies. So 398 00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:51,600 Speaker 2: you'd pay two and a half grand for a male, 399 00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:54,680 Speaker 2: you pay two thousand odds for a female, and you'd 400 00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:58,160 Speaker 2: pay seventeen hundred bucks for a non binary. How does 401 00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:00,520 Speaker 2: that work? They say, we consider there are a number 402 00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:04,320 Speaker 2: of factors when determining the premium for car insurance. Okay, 403 00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:07,119 Speaker 2: there you go. So next time you're taking boxes and 404 00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:11,480 Speaker 2: you're paying for stuff, who's to know? Crayan Bridge twenty 405 00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:14,240 Speaker 2: two away from six our reporters now come and Toned 406 00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 2: and Collen. Good morning wedding.

So Rio Tinto is putting fifteen million 409 00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:27,840 Speaker 7: dollars into its new facility or a new facility that 410 00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:30,679 Speaker 7: will process spent cell liner. This is the hazardous by 411 00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:33,719 Speaker 7: product of aluminium production there. So this marks a bit 412 00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:37,600 Speaker 7: of a major milestone in their cleanup commitments. Remember Rio 413 00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:40,919 Speaker 7: Tinto's twenty twenty one apology over how smelter waste was managed. 414 00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:44,000 Speaker 7: The acting general manager, Matt Blax told the ODT here 415 00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:47,480 Speaker 7: processing the material on site is a milestone for. 416 00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:49,639 Speaker 2: Them delivering on their remediation commitments. 417 00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:52,679 Speaker 7: He says it means less waste, better environmental outcomes, and 418 00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 7: say for handling the projects expected to create twenty construction 419 00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:57,960 Speaker 7: jobs and six permanent roles. 420 00:20:58,320 --> 00:20:59,320 Speaker 2: All right, how's your weather. 421 00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:03,200 Speaker 7: It's a weekday here today, rain the shells this afternoon, 422 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:05,000 Speaker 7: some possibly heavy the high fifty. 423 00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:07,720 Speaker 2: Thank you by the way.

Some dodgy school lunches 430 00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:28,480 Speaker 12: indeed handed out at Highata Community Campus yesterday, Ryan. This 431 00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:30,800 Speaker 12: is the school that was previously known as Danui Hi. 432 00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:34,040 Speaker 12: For those who are wondering, basically what happened is the 433 00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:36,560 Speaker 12: school lunches arrived, they were boxed up, they were handed 434 00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:38,439 Speaker 12: out to kids who then went and sat down. It 435 00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:40,360 Speaker 12: was a teacher who then went to tuck into one 436 00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:43,359 Speaker 12: of the leftovers, remembering that the government wants the leftovers eaten, 437 00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:46,359 Speaker 12: and they found that it was furry with mild It 438 00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:50,240 Speaker 12: was liquefied and many children had already consumed this by 439 00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:53,439 Speaker 12: the time the school called them back. Now, while the principal, 440 00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:56,000 Speaker 12: Peeky Burrow, says they have had issues with lunches before, 441 00:21:56,119 --> 00:22:00,760 Speaker 12: she describes this as catastrophic, totally unacceptable. It says they 442 00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:03,800 Speaker 12: have no six children at the moment, but they are 443 00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:07,280 Speaker 12: watching and sending warnings home to families about the signs 444 00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:10,080 Speaker 12: of food poisoning.

And remember last week 505 00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:53,800 Speaker 6: when they said that it's not it's going to be opening. 506 00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:56,119 Speaker 6: You know later we knew that would happen, like in 507 00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:58,159 Speaker 6: the second half of the year. I thought, shivers, we 508 00:24:58,200 --> 00:24:59,359 Speaker 6: won't even be around. 509 00:24:59,119 --> 00:24:59,439 Speaker 1: Will we. 510 00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:01,840 Speaker 6: So the increase will cover the two hundred and thirty 511 00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:05,080 Speaker 6: five million dollar operating cost of this rail service underground 512 00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:08,840 Speaker 6: rail service. And this is the largest rate rise since 513 00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:11,880 Speaker 6: Aalkland Council was formed in twenty ten. So this means 514 00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:14,399 Speaker 6: that the annual rates for the average household there go 515 00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:16,959 Speaker 6: to climb from around four thousand dollars to more than 516 00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:19,720 Speaker 6: four thousand, three hundred, so it's the weekly cost of 517 00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:23,080 Speaker 6: eighty three dollars and then after next year rates is 518 00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:25,280 Speaker 6: set to rise by three point five percent each year. 519 00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:26,840 Speaker 6: As we know, how's our Christmas? 520 00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:28,320 Speaker 2: Merry Christmas?

They'll just change the way 528 00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:49,760 Speaker 2: that they charge you. They'll increase your values and get 529 00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:52,760 Speaker 2: you that way.

We're inter the city Council, no doubt, like 586 00:29:14,640 --> 00:29:19,240 Speaker 11: many others, has to get its financial controls in order 587 00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:21,480 Speaker 11: and getting spending under control, and that's what we're doing. 588 00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:26,480 Speaker 11: But in terms of the specialized disabled toilets in Courtney Place, 589 00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:32,440 Speaker 11: there's a facility that is aimed at providing a facility 590 00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:34,600 Speaker 11: for some of the most profoundly disabled people who do 591 00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:36,120 Speaker 11: go to Courtney Plass occasionally. 592 00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:39,880 Speaker 2: So your the cost is this whole thing just misnoma 593 00:29:40,320 --> 00:29:42,400 Speaker 2: that the cost of it, how much of it was 594 00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:45,240 Speaker 2: on the lights and the design as opposed to practical 595 00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:47,200 Speaker 2: things like disability access. 596 00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:50,600 Speaker 11: Look, I don't know, I wasn't involved in the project. 597 00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:54,720 Speaker 11: I've inherited it. It's there now. But two things that 598 00:29:54,760 --> 00:29:57,440 Speaker 11: they were it was aimed to do when was more 599 00:29:57,480 --> 00:30:00,840 Speaker 11: secure toilets because the ones that were there previously we're 600 00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:04,640 Speaker 11: the scene of Well it was pretty insecure, pretty unsafe, 601 00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:09,360 Speaker 11: but also a facility for particularly highly a mobile and 602 00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:12,360 Speaker 11: disabled people to get extraitute that one of the toilets 603 00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:14,560 Speaker 11: got a hoist in it, another toilet's got a shower 604 00:30:14,560 --> 00:30:19,040 Speaker 11: in it when accidents happened. So it provides those facilities 605 00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:21,440 Speaker 11: very expensive. That is correct, And I don't know why 606 00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:22,880 Speaker 11: it's got the light show on the front of it, 607 00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:25,640 Speaker 11: but that's what the previous council approved. 608 00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:28,200 Speaker 2: Will there be no more light shows under Andrew level? 609 00:30:29,880 --> 00:30:34,400 Speaker 11: Well, we're cutting spending and we'll do It's not a no. 610 00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:35,520 Speaker 2: There's not a no. 611 00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:39,760 Speaker 11: Come on, We're not putting light shows on toilet all right? 612 00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:41,800 Speaker 2: Very good and is two to four percent reasonable. 613 00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:47,480 Speaker 11: The problem with things like that is a lot of 614 00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:49,320 Speaker 11: a lot of the rates increases in the last few 615 00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:55,120 Speaker 11: years have been because of decades of underspending or under 616 00:30:55,840 --> 00:31:00,960 Speaker 11: waiting residents to look after infrastructure. Sits under the ground 617 00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:03,600 Speaker 11: and that's reality Wellington to the chuncil's borrowed to do 618 00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:06,840 Speaker 11: a lot of infrastructure, infrastructure upgrades. The reality a lot 619 00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:09,040 Speaker 11: of that is water that gets shifted off to water 620 00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:12,480 Speaker 11: entities don not covered by the restriction. So I'll see 621 00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:14,680 Speaker 11: that how that happens. I think that the main thing 622 00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:17,320 Speaker 11: is what the governments tapped into is a justified consume 623 00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:20,000 Speaker 11: with a lot of people seeing their rates going up 624 00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:23,880 Speaker 11: at an astronomical rate at the same time as only 625 00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:27,000 Speaker 11: costs as well about rates for counselors. That should do 626 00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:28,960 Speaker 11: a bit of job at keeping the spinning out of control, 627 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:30,520 Speaker 11: and we need to do that, isn't that Christopher? 628 00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:32,200 Speaker 2: All right? We will see how you go. Andrew little 629 00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:35,200 Speaker 2: Wellington Mere.
