I 16 00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:36,639 Speaker 3: mean I. 17 00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:38,559 Speaker 2: Looked out over the square and New Ditery is just 18 00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:41,920 Speaker 2: sort of people just jam packed everywhere down this roads, 19 00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:43,040 Speaker 2: down the alleyways. 20 00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:44,640 Speaker 3: Really quite something. 21 00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:48,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, and then applause would break out as different things 22 00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:50,960 Speaker 2: were said, and as this coffin was moved, and it 23 00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:51,600 Speaker 2: was quite moving. 24 00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:54,720 Speaker 1: If people haven't been there, and I'm assuming where you 25 00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:58,120 Speaker 1: were sitting us up towards the Vatican itself. You're on 26 00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:00,320 Speaker 1: the top, there's a slope. The whole thing's on this slope, 27 00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:02,560 Speaker 1: and you look down and you can see way back 28 00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:04,039 Speaker 1: down the streets for miles. 29 00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:05,160 Speaker 3: Exactly exactly. 30 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:07,440 Speaker 2: I was sort of literally two rows in the second 31 00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:11,320 Speaker 2: or third row from the altar and very very close 32 00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 2: to seeing this ceremony and obviously very close to the coffin, 33 00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:16,800 Speaker 2: and then you'd just look out to the left and 34 00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:19,880 Speaker 2: you could just see people, just streams of people, and 35 00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:21,600 Speaker 2: I think there were reports there was something like two 36 00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:23,560 Speaker 2: hundred and fifty to four hundred thousand people there. 37 00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:25,680 Speaker 1: What was security like and how was it handled? 38 00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:29,679 Speaker 2: It was a lot of security, and as you expect, 39 00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:34,119 Speaker 2: it was tricky getting cars and delegations in and out 40 00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:37,840 Speaker 2: of the cathedral, and then it was very difficult getting 41 00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:40,600 Speaker 2: back out again. Everyone was there waiting for their cars 42 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:44,119 Speaker 2: and delegations to come out the other side. But it's 43 00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:46,200 Speaker 2: a big movement. Trying to deal with all those world 44 00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:47,200 Speaker 2: leaders that were there. 45 00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:49,240 Speaker 1: And who did you run into and who did you 46 00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 1: talk to? And any business was done or was that 47 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:52,840 Speaker 1: not really allowed? 48 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:55,680 Speaker 2: No, it was really ran into probably fifteen or so 49 00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 2: leaders and had good conversations with them. But it wasn't 50 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:02,680 Speaker 2: a place where we did formal bilaterals or anything like that. 51 00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:04,400 Speaker 2: But you know, I had a good catch up with 52 00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:09,920 Speaker 2: the President of the European Union, Philippines president as well, 53 00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:13,720 Speaker 2: so Kiir Starmer obviously the Dutch Prime Minister. 54 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:18,120 Speaker 3: I ran into President Biden, who was there. 55 00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:21,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, so it's just there's just a few people to 56 00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:22,680 Speaker 2: talk to and have touch base with. 57 00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 3: And what do you make of it? 58 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 1: You were listening the photo of course of Trump and 59 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:29,320 Speaker 1: Zelensky huddled together. Does that does that bring us all hope? 60 00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:30,119 Speaker 3: Yeah? 61 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:33,120 Speaker 2: I mean it's an incredibly challenging situation, as you well know, 62 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:36,520 Speaker 2: but it was quite powerful and evocative imagery. I thought, 63 00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:39,760 Speaker 2: seeing those two together sitting on the chairs having a 64 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:43,680 Speaker 2: conversation at the cathedral at a funeral of the guy. 65 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:46,000 Speaker 3: That was was talking about will peace And isn't it ironic? 66 00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:48,520 Speaker 1: I suppose you go back to Anzac Day and what 67 00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:50,600 Speaker 1: we commemorated Anzac Day, and you look back at the 68 00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:53,400 Speaker 1: world and wars and at that moment and the trouble 69 00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:55,639 Speaker 1: we're all in these days. Maybe if we spent more 70 00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:58,760 Speaker 1: time thinking about Anzac Days, the world wouldn't be where 71 00:02:58,760 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 1: it is at the moment. 72 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:02,119 Speaker 3: Yeah, that was another highlight of the week. 73 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:04,600 Speaker 2: Mike was doing the Dawn service, but I had exactly 74 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:07,160 Speaker 2: the same reflection, was that, you know, one hundred and 75 00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:09,480 Speaker 2: ten years ago we were on a peninsula and the 76 00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 2: data nails at Gallipoli with the Australians and with the Brits, 77 00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 2: and then one hundred and ten years later, we're with 78 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:19,919 Speaker 2: the Brits in south of England training Ukrainian soldiers fifty 79 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:22,119 Speaker 2: four thousand of them to go back into a warfare 80 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 2: in a matter of days after being trained by New 81 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:29,240 Speaker 2: Zealand troops and British troops yet again entrenches, albeit with drones, 82 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 2: and so it was, yeah, it was a big thought 83 00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 2: that process. We haven't come that far, have we? In 84 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:34,760 Speaker 2: some ways? 85 00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 1: Actually speaking of drones. The thing that took my attention 86 00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 1: with this trip to Britain and Starmer and your visit 87 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:42,720 Speaker 1: to the troops who were training for the people in Ukraine, 88 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:46,000 Speaker 1: this business and tech stuff that we do. So there's 89 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 1: a small company in Mount Monganui and the next thing 90 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:51,800 Speaker 1: you know, they're doing multimillion dollar deals with the UK. 91 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 1: I mean, that's a story worth telling, isn't it. 92 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:54,560 Speaker 3: Absolutely. 93 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 2: I mean the highlight of the UK trip for me 94 00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:59,400 Speaker 2: was that we've got all this historical stuff that ties 95 00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 2: us to the but we're obviously a long way away 96 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 2: from each other. But we've actually got new things now 97 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:06,480 Speaker 2: in the relationship that we can continue to build and 98 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:09,480 Speaker 2: propel this relationship on. And so one is really around 99 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:13,480 Speaker 2: defense and security. Awesome caree company SIOS that's actually did 100 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 2: a thirty million pound deal with the Ministry of Defense 101 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:21,040 Speaker 2: in the UK unmanned uncrewed equipment and what we want 102 00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:23,640 Speaker 2: to do in our defense capability plan some aspects as well. 103 00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:26,800 Speaker 2: But then also the free trade agreement Mike has been fantastic. 104 00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:29,359 Speaker 2: In the last twelve months. We've had twenty one percent 105 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 2: growth in New Zealand exports to the UK. I did 106 00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:36,160 Speaker 2: a day with investors in tech and also with infrastructure investors, 107 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 2: and we've got a lot of British investors putting it 108 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:41,359 Speaker 2: renewable energy and projects into New Zealand as well. So 109 00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:44,720 Speaker 2: it's good to have not just the historical stuff of. 110 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:45,480 Speaker 3: A sheared outlook. 111 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 2: She had value, she had histories, but also now have 112 00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 2: real drive and ambition about what we can do more 113 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 2: together going forward. 114 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:56,920 Speaker 1: And if you talk to a British audience, generally they 115 00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:59,240 Speaker 1: know about sheep, they know about serving on blanc of course, 116 00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:01,200 Speaker 1: do they know about tech automatically? 117 00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:03,719 Speaker 3: That's what I spent a lot of time doing on 118 00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:04,560 Speaker 3: the Gala. Don't know. 119 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:07,120 Speaker 2: We had two hundred and fifty people there just telling 120 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:09,160 Speaker 2: them exactly, you know us for exactly those things and 121 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:12,120 Speaker 2: marks and Spencer's and Wagros. But do you know that 122 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:15,719 Speaker 2: we are top five country on renewables, We're. 123 00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:17,240 Speaker 3: The fourth biggest launcher of rockets. 124 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 2: We've got amazing tech companies there that are already operating 125 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:23,080 Speaker 2: well in the UK as well, So you know that 126 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:25,680 Speaker 2: message is getting through that we've got traditional sectors, but 127 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 2: we are also modern country with lots of the emerging tech. 128 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:30,479 Speaker 3: As well, which is very interesting to them. 129 00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:32,839 Speaker 1: So back in Rome, you mentioned the president of the EU. 130 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 1: You know when you talk about the EU, and I 131 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:37,960 Speaker 1: guess you're up with this. Rachel Reeves mentioned over the 132 00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:40,000 Speaker 1: weekend that Britain needs to trade more with the EU. 133 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:41,840 Speaker 1: They need to worry more about the EU than they 134 00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:46,360 Speaker 1: do about the United States. Does that broad theory dubtail 135 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:47,640 Speaker 1: with where we're at or not? 136 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:50,560 Speaker 2: I think for us it's an and and and not 137 00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 2: an or. And you know we want a positive, constructive 138 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:56,719 Speaker 2: relationship with the Americans. We've got good connections to that administration. 139 00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:00,159 Speaker 2: Our exporters are actually still feeling very positive about the 140 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:03,159 Speaker 2: market posts the tariffs. We're not imposing. 141 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 3: Retaliatory tariffs because it will just. 142 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:06,800 Speaker 2: Hurt News Islanders and we'll continue to make the case 143 00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:09,320 Speaker 2: for New Zealand, but then it's an end. And that's 144 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 2: what we've been doing the last sixteen months is getting 145 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 2: to the UAE, getting to the GCC kicking off and 146 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:18,280 Speaker 2: going to the UK, powering up the FTA, bringing the 147 00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 2: euf TA into force the season earlier than when planned. 148 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:24,719 Speaker 2: All that stuff that I've been doing, comprehensives, tragic hutch 149 00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:29,080 Speaker 2: of Vietnam, r c own Countries, Singapore, all that stuff 150 00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 2: is really important. We've got to sell more and more 151 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 2: things to the world. 152 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:34,719 Speaker 1: A couple of domestic things. China got very upset at 153 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:37,800 Speaker 1: New Zealand MPs who visited Taiwan. Should they be and 154 00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:38,720 Speaker 1: is there a problem there? 155 00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:39,000 Speaker 3: Will not. 156 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:42,040 Speaker 2: No, We've got a long standing commitment to our One 157 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:45,640 Speaker 2: China policy, which we hold to. But we've had always 158 00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 2: a long tradition of back bench MPs going off to Taiwan. 159 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:53,360 Speaker 2: It's the legislator, not the executive that goes. 160 00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:56,080 Speaker 1: Now the family boost where what was it? Three four 161 00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:56,839 Speaker 1: or five families? 162 00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:57,120 Speaker 3: Whatever? 163 00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:59,320 Speaker 1: I mean, how did you cock that up? Yeah? 164 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:02,279 Speaker 2: I mean there was a real challenges around there, obviously, 165 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:05,160 Speaker 2: the assumptions and around as to what was who was 166 00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 2: going to get what, and what was who was entitled 167 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:09,640 Speaker 2: to what could to see Nicholas come out and said, look, 168 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:11,000 Speaker 2: we want to make sure that you'll look at the 169 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:13,240 Speaker 2: system and make sure it works. But we did get 170 00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:15,440 Speaker 2: you know, forty two million dollars out to fifty five 171 00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:19,440 Speaker 2: thousand people or families, which was actually really important. We 172 00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 2: were trying to put it out as quickly as possible 173 00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:23,800 Speaker 2: rather than make an IT system that would then take 174 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 2: year a year and a half to do. But yes, 175 00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:29,400 Speaker 2: clearly some assumptions from my ID based off some incomplete 176 00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:33,040 Speaker 2: information led to there's some challenges there. But Nicolay wants 177 00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:34,960 Speaker 2: to make sure that we get that money out into 178 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 2: those families. 179 00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 1: And does that then sit with the ID because they 180 00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:39,880 Speaker 1: didn't have the numbers, or does it sit with you 181 00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:42,560 Speaker 1: because you got very bullish on it, sprooking it and 182 00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:44,600 Speaker 1: selling it when you really didn't have the details to 183 00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:44,880 Speaker 1: do that. 184 00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:47,560 Speaker 2: Now I think we hit off the assumptions that we 185 00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:50,400 Speaker 2: had in the models that we had built and from 186 00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 2: assumptions that we had. But clearly, you know, some of 187 00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 2: tho assumptions are offering complete information or wrong information. But 188 00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:59,280 Speaker 2: the key thing is the intention was to get money 189 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:02,640 Speaker 2: out the door to families that actually are dealing with 190 00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:05,520 Speaker 2: the cost of living crisis and high early child education costs, 191 00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:07,240 Speaker 2: and we want to do that. 192 00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 3: As fast as possible. 193 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:10,160 Speaker 2: So we did it through the rebate sort of model, 194 00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:13,560 Speaker 2: but obviously there's more that we can do there, and 195 00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 2: Nicholas going to keep looking at it and see what 196 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:15,560 Speaker 2: else we can do. 197 00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:17,720 Speaker 1: So the idea is the money will eventually go out 198 00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:19,960 Speaker 1: to people you intended it to go to. It'll just 199 00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 1: be slightly different by way of mechanism. 200 00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:22,080 Speaker 3: Yeah. 201 00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 2: Absolutely, I mean, we want that money going to those 202 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 2: working families that actually have got very high childcare costs. 203 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:31,440 Speaker 2: We want to do everything we can to support them. 204 00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:33,520 Speaker 2: The system has worked as well as it can to 205 00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:35,559 Speaker 2: get the cash out to them. Obviously some of the 206 00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:38,960 Speaker 2: assumptions were wrong as to how much people would receive 207 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:41,120 Speaker 2: and when how they would do that, But we can 208 00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 2: fix that up. 209 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:45,080 Speaker 1: All right, and then acc an act and Mari procurement. 210 00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 1: Are you up on this or no? 211 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:49,360 Speaker 2: I sorry, I haven't been briefed a little bit on 212 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 2: the ACC ship and I know Scott Simpson's asked the 213 00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 2: team to look at that again. 214 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:56,720 Speaker 1: So on the surface, act to claiming that a SEC 215 00:08:56,880 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 1: is still trying to procure services based on race and 216 00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 1: there's this cabinet piece of paper that says you can't 217 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 1: do that. 218 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 2: So I act right, Well, we've got a circular that's 219 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:09,160 Speaker 2: about making sure services public services delivered on the basis 220 00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:13,720 Speaker 2: of need. ACC have obviously got a procurement exercise up 221 00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:17,000 Speaker 2: and running. The Minister Scott Simpson, as I understand, it 222 00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:19,839 Speaker 2: was quite comfortable in the first instance, but obviously it's 223 00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:21,880 Speaker 2: an operational decision for them. But he's and now asked 224 00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:25,160 Speaker 2: them to go back and reassure themselves and him that 225 00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:26,120 Speaker 2: that's been handled well. 226 00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:26,640 Speaker 1: So I'm up. 227 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:31,160 Speaker 2: The week in totality, oh very I know how to 228 00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:34,600 Speaker 2: sell them up. Big week, really excited about the UK 229 00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:37,360 Speaker 2: relationship moving forward and having new things to feed it. 230 00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:41,320 Speaker 2: Blowing away by Gallipoli and being there on the dawn service. 231 00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:44,880 Speaker 2: Highlight for me was talking to Kiwis, who had made 232 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:48,559 Speaker 2: the trip basically as pilgrimage. 233 00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:49,760 Speaker 3: Were a tired folk on a tour. 234 00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 2: There was school groups there from all over New Zealand 235 00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:55,280 Speaker 2: that had come to show their respects to the Glipoli 236 00:09:55,520 --> 00:10:00,360 Speaker 2: and Anzac troops, and then obviously the Pope's funeral.
