Trump and Zelenski have had a one 20 00:00:56,360 --> 00:01:06,840 Speaker 1: hour chinwag at Davos. Here's what Zelensky had to say about. 21 00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:11,280 Speaker 2: Or are nearly ready and that really matters. 22 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:13,199 Speaker 3: Ukraine is working with. 23 00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:18,319 Speaker 2: Full honesty and determination and that brings results, and Russia 24 00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:22,520 Speaker 2: must become ready to to finish this war, to stop 25 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:23,600 Speaker 2: this aggression. 26 00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:28,160 Speaker 1: Meanwhile on Greenlands, Elensky says, everyone's waiting for America to, 27 00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:30,920 Speaker 1: as he says, call down. 28 00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:32,399 Speaker 4: Europe looks lost. 29 00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:36,520 Speaker 2: Trying to convince the US president to change, but he 30 00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:41,560 Speaker 2: will not change. President Trump laughs who he is, and 31 00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:45,639 Speaker 2: he says he loves Europe, but he will not listen 32 00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:46,160 Speaker 2: to this. 33 00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:49,280 Speaker 1: Kind of Europe now too. America and former Special Council 34 00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:52,320 Speaker 1: Jack Smith has arrived before the US House Judiciary Committee, 35 00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 1: where he will testify about his decision to bring criminal 36 00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:59,680 Speaker 1: charges against President Trump in two separate cases. 37 00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:03,320 Speaker 4: Jack Smith was the one pushing to have the hearing 38 00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:05,160 Speaker 4: be public, which is quite remarkable. 39 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:08,560 Speaker 2: Typically it is not the witness who wants to public. 40 00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:10,280 Speaker 4: Hering, but Congress who does so it can make a 41 00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:12,919 Speaker 4: big hill about it. So expect a lot of fireworks today. 42 00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:14,760 Speaker 1: So finally to a little bit of fun out of 43 00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:19,480 Speaker 1: Hollywood's and the Oscars vampire horror film, Sinners has said 44 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:22,760 Speaker 1: a new Oscars record. It picked up sixteen nominations. 45 00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:32,960 Speaker 5: The things that I've seen, I mean seeing old deans. 46 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 4: Ucles, you manill. 47 00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:47,959 Speaker 1: Now Best Performance from an undeaed person. Sinners was a 48 00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 1: one hundred million dollar movie. Man He predicted it would 49 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:51,919 Speaker 1: be a disaster, but instead it became one of the 50 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:55,680 Speaker 1: highest grossing original films in recent years now. Other films 51 00:02:55,680 --> 00:03:00,600 Speaker 1: nominated for the Oscars include Bigonia, Frankenstein, One Battle After Another, 52 00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 1: Marty Supreme, which I saw on Monday and is quite 53 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:05,760 Speaker 1: a rollicking ride, and the f one Film, which I 54 00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:09,200 Speaker 1: think is in the comedy sector. It is nine half 55 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 1: to five. 56 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,400 Speaker 6: The News you Need this morning and the in depth 57 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:17,920 Speaker 6: Analysis Early Edition with Andrew Dickens and one Roote Love 58 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:19,680 Speaker 6: where you Live News talks. 59 00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 1: That'd be so Yesterday, the Otago Daily Times ran an 60 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:25,760 Speaker 1: article about what a fellow called Grant Kitto thinks now. 61 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:30,079 Speaker 1: Grant is a former Doctor Without Borders worker mat Son 62 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 1: Frontier and Grant Kitto argued that showcasing the US Air 63 00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:38,480 Speaker 1: Force F twenty two raptors at the Warbirds over Wonker 64 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 1: effectively legitimizes US military power and the weapons systems that 65 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:45,400 Speaker 1: have been used in conflicts where civilians were killed, and 66 00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:47,360 Speaker 1: he would like it if they were stopped from actually 67 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:50,360 Speaker 1: performing now. The Raptor is made by Lockheed Martin, and 68 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 1: back in twenty fifteen, a US Air Force gunship, also 69 00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 1: built by Lockheed Martin, attacked the Doctors Without Borders Hospital, 70 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 1: killing forty two people, including fourteen Stars members. So you 71 00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 1: can see where grank Kato is a little bit upset 72 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 1: about the United States Air Force. Obviously, he also worries 73 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 1: about the huge emissions from the planes, so he just 74 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:12,720 Speaker 1: thinks it's just a bad idea. A local councilor echoed 75 00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 1: his concerned and said that the current global environment was 76 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:19,120 Speaker 1: not good for a display of US military power right 77 00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:23,440 Speaker 1: now in beautiful Wanica. And he said, because this plane 78 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:26,440 Speaker 1: is in current use, that makes a difference compared to 79 00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:28,800 Speaker 1: the older planes which will be at the event. But 80 00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:33,120 Speaker 1: I thought, what a load of tosh. Firstly, I guess 81 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 1: the giveaway is the name of the event. It's always 82 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:40,240 Speaker 1: been war birds. These are all warplanes. This is a 83 00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:44,640 Speaker 1: celebration of war machines, but more so the ingenuity of 84 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:46,719 Speaker 1: the people who built the amazing planes and what they 85 00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:48,440 Speaker 1: can do in the air, not what they can do 86 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 1: to kill. No one's firing off any missiles here, And 87 00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:53,840 Speaker 1: I wonder where all the descent was back in the 88 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:57,280 Speaker 1: day when the American F sixteen's visited, which were also 89 00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 1: on act of duty, or the Australian F one to eleven's, 90 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:02,599 Speaker 1: Or how about the Soviet era MiGs which at the 91 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:05,160 Speaker 1: time with the height of the weapons of mass destruction? 92 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:09,159 Speaker 1: What about the British Vulcan bombers that killed thousands in 93 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 1: their career, or even dare I say it, the mighty 94 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:17,039 Speaker 1: spit Fire. Does Grand Kitto also have a problem with 95 00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:20,719 Speaker 1: shooting at the Olympics or artery? Does he have a 96 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 1: problem with the javelin, which of course is based on 97 00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:28,039 Speaker 1: spear work, the ultimate and original weapon of mass destruction? Look, 98 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:32,800 Speaker 1: I understand his concern, but I think I'd say maybe 99 00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:35,960 Speaker 1: it's better to understand the weapon rather than to ban it. 100 00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:39,240 Speaker 1: And of course it's not the plane that did all 101 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 1: the killing, it's the people who controlled it. This plane 102 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:44,400 Speaker 1: is coming to fly and to show what it can 103 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:47,000 Speaker 1: do in the air, And the F twenty two Raptor 104 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:51,760 Speaker 1: is a mind boggling good piece of kit. Used talk 105 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:56,800 Speaker 1: said they strive after five The tailing incident of Abount 106 00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:59,200 Speaker 1: Monminuary incident, of course, is heartbreaking, and you're getting all 107 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:01,360 Speaker 1: sorts of advice about all sorts of things. I can 108 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 1: tell you that the police are not actually doing any 109 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 1: stand ups at the moment to confirm or not confirm numbers, 110 00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:08,920 Speaker 1: and that if you do hear about any numbers, these 111 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:12,239 Speaker 1: are unconfirmed. And so this is why you're getting several 112 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:15,240 Speaker 1: different reports about how many numbers are involved. What we 113 00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:17,559 Speaker 1: do know is that there are people, and they're still 114 00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:21,280 Speaker 1: there and they're still hunting for them. And so Mahi 115 00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:24,920 Speaker 1: Dreisdal will be joining us just before six. This is 116 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:27,280 Speaker 1: also the day when the inflation number comes out again, 117 00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:29,600 Speaker 1: and so in a few moments time Cameron Bagriy will 118 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:31,480 Speaker 1: be joining us to get his pick. And as I 119 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:33,280 Speaker 1: said right at the beginning of the program, inflation is 120 00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 1: sticky in all sorts of places. England came out with 121 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:39,920 Speaker 1: a worse than expected inflations figure yesterday. So how are 122 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 1: we doing in New Zealand? You know, Gautvielle, I think 123 00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:45,840 Speaker 1: we all would say, the cost of living crisis is 124 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:48,080 Speaker 1: going on. Yeah, the inflation is certainly still there, it's 125 00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:50,599 Speaker 1: still very sticky. But Cameron's the guy really looks at 126 00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 1: it in detail, and he's next. 127 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:55,320 Speaker 6: The News you Need this morning and the in depth 128 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:59,840 Speaker 6: analysis early edition with Andrew Dickens and one Root Love 129 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:01,680 Speaker 6: where you Live news talks that'd be. 130 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 1: Yes, everybody is supporting me, they're not. Grant Kitto on 131 00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:08,720 Speaker 1: the war Birds of a Wonica. Having the raptors down 132 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 1: here in Wontica is a great draw card, plus will 133 00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 1: tape people's minds off the recently announced McDonald's opening in 134 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:15,960 Speaker 1: three parks. And as Karen rightly says, you can't e 135 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 1: raise history. These are planes. They're just planes. Yes they 136 00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:21,680 Speaker 1: are warplanes as well, but they have just planes. Now. 137 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 1: Later today we're going to get our official inflation number 138 00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 1: for the year twenty twenty five and economists are picking 139 00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:31,600 Speaker 1: three percent or above, which would come in above the 140 00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:35,320 Speaker 1: Reserve Bank's forecast of two point seven percent. So independent economists, 141 00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:37,920 Speaker 1: Cameron Baggery joins, are now good wanting to you, Cameron, 142 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 1: h good morning. What's your pick? 143 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 7: I think we honestly a number round point four one 144 00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:47,840 Speaker 7: percent point five percent are on the quarter of the 145 00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 7: year on year to the Reserve Bank expecting number a 146 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 7: little lower, and when numbers tend to come a little 147 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:55,240 Speaker 7: bit high on what the reserve Bank expecting on the 148 00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:58,320 Speaker 7: inflation front. Markets tend to pull back from the expectations 149 00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:01,600 Speaker 7: that ESUA moving down. The markets now starting to think 150 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 7: the ACA is going to be moving up in two 151 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:04,880 Speaker 7: thousand and twenty six. 152 00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:07,640 Speaker 1: Did you say you think it will be moving up there? 153 00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,440 Speaker 7: Well, that's what markets participate at the moment. That's also 154 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:14,960 Speaker 7: my own sort of personal view. Inflation is looking to 155 00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:16,760 Speaker 7: be a little bit sort of sticky towards the top 156 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 7: end of the targets, the target zones one to three scent. 157 00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:22,440 Speaker 7: We got down to two point two, we've bounced back 158 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:24,480 Speaker 7: up to three. You've got an economy that's turning in 159 00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:28,280 Speaker 7: the corner that suggests that the disinflationary pressure to take 160 00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:31,000 Speaker 7: it back down to two percent is not quite going 161 00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:33,559 Speaker 7: to be there. So it looks like the OCR this 162 00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:37,000 Speaker 7: stage is probably a little bit too low for where 163 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:40,760 Speaker 7: the economy is and where inflatatory pressures are so extect 164 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:43,080 Speaker 7: the ACR at some stage, and an extort of twelve 165 00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:45,280 Speaker 7: months to go a little bit higher, emphasis on a 166 00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:46,720 Speaker 7: little bit higher, not a lot higher. 167 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:49,640 Speaker 1: Now, the big pressure is from things that are non tradable, 168 00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:53,040 Speaker 1: you know, things like electricity and rates and stuff like that. 169 00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:55,240 Speaker 1: That's always distorting everything, isn't it. 170 00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:59,000 Speaker 7: Here it is in terms of the year and year 171 00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:01,720 Speaker 7: the numbers. If you go back and you have a 172 00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:05,400 Speaker 7: lot at inflation repressure. For most of the two thousand 173 00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 7: sort of error, we managed to keep inflation pretty low 174 00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:12,840 Speaker 7: to low two percent, and a lot of that was 175 00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:17,959 Speaker 7: because of the low non low platable inflation, imported goods, 176 00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:21,160 Speaker 7: cheap stuff out of China. If you look at where 177 00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:24,840 Speaker 7: we are at the moment, obviously we've got the impact 178 00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:27,000 Speaker 7: of the lower New zeal On dital which tends to 179 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:31,199 Speaker 7: push up import prices. Your export prices were obviously pretty 180 00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:33,400 Speaker 7: good for the farmers, not so good for people are 181 00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 7: buying red meat with the supermarket. And what we're also 182 00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:39,720 Speaker 7: seeing there is your administrative charges you're from central and 183 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:44,040 Speaker 7: love of government. They're running pretty hot. You've got rates 184 00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:46,559 Speaker 7: that are running pretty hot. You've got out of pity 185 00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:49,160 Speaker 7: of gas prices that are running pretty hot as well. 186 00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 7: So you've got a certain persistence stickiness for non trade 187 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:55,400 Speaker 7: of inflation or parts of non trade of inflation. But 188 00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:58,840 Speaker 7: your strip goes out your non trade of inflation, your 189 00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:01,080 Speaker 7: housing prices, your rent, you know, those sort of things 190 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:04,600 Speaker 7: are pretty soft wide because the economy has been pretty weak. 191 00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:07,480 Speaker 7: When the economy has been pretty weak, firms can't tender 192 00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 7: pass on price in places. So it's a real too 193 00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:11,640 Speaker 7: dead story out there in regard to what we're seeing 194 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 7: in regard to the place. 195 00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:15,319 Speaker 1: Meanwhile, the election as coming up. We've got three hundred 196 00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:17,320 Speaker 1: days before we head to the polls once again, and 197 00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:19,480 Speaker 1: obviously the economy is going to be front and center 198 00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:21,840 Speaker 1: in terms of all the parties and what they debate. 199 00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 1: So what do you think is going to happen over 200 00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:26,160 Speaker 1: the year and which party will be in the best 201 00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 1: position to you know, to take advantage of it. 202 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:33,079 Speaker 7: Well, it depends what you look at. If you look 203 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:35,600 Speaker 7: at traditionally, a stronger economy tends to be good for 204 00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:38,000 Speaker 7: the incumbents. And obviously the economy if you look at 205 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 7: just about the audo economic indicators is you we can 206 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:43,199 Speaker 7: pencil and they twenty six is going to be a 207 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:45,720 Speaker 7: hell of lot better than twenty twenty five. I don't 208 00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:47,079 Speaker 7: think the clonomy is going to be knocking the ball 209 00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:49,559 Speaker 7: out of the part, but we've certainly got fourth pulsion 210 00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:52,000 Speaker 7: and motor in part Land, we're probably going to be 211 00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 7: running along the motorway about third year, but we'd like 212 00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:56,199 Speaker 7: to be in four or fifth, and I don't think 213 00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:58,240 Speaker 7: we've got quite going to be the year. But third 214 00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:00,600 Speaker 7: year is an awful lot better than reverse within them, 215 00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:03,840 Speaker 7: so that's good for the incumbents of the sticking fourteen incumbents. 216 00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:05,920 Speaker 7: I think it's going to be inflation, Yeah, a number 217 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:08,040 Speaker 7: one issue out there across you see on at the 218 00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:12,480 Speaker 7: moment's cost of them yea. And inflation sort the money 219 00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:14,720 Speaker 7: out of people's pockets. And I think inflation is going 220 00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:16,280 Speaker 7: to end up settling in the two and a half 221 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:18,920 Speaker 7: to three percent to design in places sad As and 222 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:20,520 Speaker 7: the two and a half three percent of design. I 223 00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:23,199 Speaker 7: think that's going to be a problem for the incumbent 224 00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 7: governments of there's a glass fall and there's a glass 225 00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:28,120 Speaker 7: uppy story in regard to what the economic immigrate is 226 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:29,200 Speaker 7: going to be telling bloss up there. 227 00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:31,679 Speaker 1: Fascinating Cameron Bakree, I thank you for your insight. That 228 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:34,520 Speaker 1: is Cameron. He is the interpendent economist, and he's quite right. 229 00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:36,840 Speaker 1: If it's inflation is high, that's been for labor, they'll 230 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:39,480 Speaker 1: complain about the cost of living. Of course, if national 231 00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 1: can pull off a recovery with low inflation. Well, they'll 232 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:45,319 Speaker 1: be told that they're fantastic physical managers and have another crack. 233 00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 1: So we'll wait to see. Three hundred days ago, it 234 00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:51,640 Speaker 1: is five twenty News Talks mp ACC has a twenty 235 00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:54,600 Speaker 1: six billion dollar deficit. We know about this, but we 236 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:56,679 Speaker 1: just don't talk about it for some time. You kind 237 00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:58,400 Speaker 1: of forget about it. So how are they going to 238 00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 1: change things to cope with that? New report's out? We'll 239 00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:01,599 Speaker 1: talk about this next. 240 00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:04,920 Speaker 6: The first Word on the News of the Day Early 241 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 6: edition with Andrew Dickins and One Route Love where you 242 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:10,240 Speaker 6: Live News Talks. 243 00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:12,600 Speaker 1: That'd be So the ACC, it's got a twenty six 244 00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:16,720 Speaker 1: billion dollar deficit by twenty thirty. That's now now released 245 00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:18,679 Speaker 1: a plan about how they get to cope with all 246 00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:21,439 Speaker 1: of this. The plan focuses on quicker rehabilitation for claimants 247 00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:23,880 Speaker 1: and getting the agency back to basics. And under the 248 00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:25,840 Speaker 1: new plan, the agency projects it will bring in a 249 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:29,000 Speaker 1: two billion dollar surplus by twenty thirty instead of a 250 00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:32,720 Speaker 1: twenty six billion dollar deficit. That will be a remarkable turnaround. 251 00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:36,920 Speaker 1: So Warren Forster is an ACC lawyer and researcher. Enjoys 252 00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:40,040 Speaker 1: you now, Hallo, Warren, good morning. The fact that the 253 00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:42,320 Speaker 1: plan came out yesterday came as a bit of a surprise, you. 254 00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:42,560 Speaker 7: Did it not. 255 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, we've been waiting for this to be released for 256 00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:51,320 Speaker 4: probably five months and it just got thrown yesterday afternoon, 257 00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:53,240 Speaker 4: so it's quite a surprise. And the other thing that's 258 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:57,680 Speaker 4: missing is that ACC was given the draft plan about 259 00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 4: eight months ago and the optrint to respond to it 260 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:03,640 Speaker 4: than they did, and the draft plan in a SEC's 261 00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:06,760 Speaker 4: response hasn't been released. From what we generally see with 262 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:09,880 Speaker 4: these things is that they get watered down in the 263 00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:13,160 Speaker 4: final process, So it'll be interesting to see if they 264 00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 4: actually are going to release that. 265 00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 1: Why are they doing this? So they just trying to 266 00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:18,079 Speaker 1: hide everything they don't want scrutiny. 267 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:22,680 Speaker 4: That's effectively what the problem is is that you had 268 00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:25,560 Speaker 4: this external review done, the only people they talk to 269 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:27,920 Speaker 4: is ACC and then halfway through their realize, well we 270 00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:31,200 Speaker 4: better talk to Treasury as well. But they didn't actually 271 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:33,000 Speaker 4: talk to anyone on the ground. They didn't walk to 272 00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:35,800 Speaker 4: people who are external to a SEC, who actually understand 273 00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:39,560 Speaker 4: the situation in detail. So yeah, that's really what they're 274 00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:41,400 Speaker 4: trying to do. They're trying to avoid scrutiny and they're 275 00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:44,079 Speaker 4: trying to control the narrative, which they've effectively done by 276 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:46,400 Speaker 4: releasing the report along with their plan. 277 00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:47,760 Speaker 1: What did you think of the plan? 278 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:52,680 Speaker 4: Look, to be honest, the whole report and the plan 279 00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:57,040 Speaker 4: just completely misses what the Act is actually about. And 280 00:13:57,080 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 4: what the Act says is that anyone who's going to 281 00:13:59,880 --> 00:14:02,080 Speaker 4: be off work for more than three months need to 282 00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:05,960 Speaker 4: have an individual rehabilitation plan that gets the employer, the 283 00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:09,560 Speaker 4: treatment provided the person and ACC together to make a 284 00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:13,679 Speaker 4: plan for that person. And what's been happening is because 285 00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:18,640 Speaker 4: ACC has got this big book you do visiting digital system, 286 00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:22,400 Speaker 4: they've completely ignored that. So people been exited from ACC 287 00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:25,640 Speaker 4: in many parts of New Zealand about four percent of 288 00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:27,960 Speaker 4: them have a plan that through the South you go 289 00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:29,880 Speaker 4: to higher the rate and more people have a plan. 290 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:35,040 Speaker 4: But the idea that they're not doing what the Act requires, 291 00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:38,480 Speaker 4: and then they're reinventing the wheel, which is effectively what 292 00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:40,640 Speaker 4: they're doing. They're building a square wheel where they've got 293 00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:43,520 Speaker 4: one in the legislation that just forgot it exists. And no, 294 00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:46,680 Speaker 4: we're in the plan that ACC is released, No we're 295 00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:49,920 Speaker 4: in the report. Do they actually say what's happened here 296 00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:53,720 Speaker 4: is ACC has actually failed to fulfill its statutory obligations. 297 00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:57,480 Speaker 4: That's created this big blowout that stopped people getting back 298 00:14:57,520 --> 00:15:00,440 Speaker 4: to work. And the responsibility is of the ACC and 299 00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:02,760 Speaker 4: what we're actually going to do now is make them 300 00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:04,880 Speaker 4: do what it says on the box of ACC, which 301 00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:09,720 Speaker 4: is to provide individualized reabilitation. What they've done is effectively said, oh, 302 00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:12,040 Speaker 4: there's a whole lot of problems here, don't really know 303 00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:14,560 Speaker 4: what they are. We think the heirs are symptoms. So 304 00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:17,520 Speaker 4: they've described the symptoms of the problem and then said 305 00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:19,640 Speaker 4: it's going to cost us lots of money. We're going 306 00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:22,120 Speaker 4: to have to sort of crack down on ACC. So 307 00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:24,920 Speaker 4: that's the narrative of that creating that It's to be honest, 308 00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:27,480 Speaker 4: it's pretty surprising that we're at a critical junction now 309 00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:31,400 Speaker 4: for ACC. We don't need to swing backwards and forwards again. 310 00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:33,040 Speaker 4: We need to make a sustainable plan. 311 00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:34,720 Speaker 1: Whyren I thank you so much for your time. That's 312 00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:36,960 Speaker 1: War Enforcer News Talks b five twenty. 313 00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:41,760 Speaker 6: Six the early edition full the show podcast on iHeartRadio 314 00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:43,080 Speaker 6: powered by News Dogs. 315 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:46,680 Speaker 1: It Be News Talks, It Be. What a horrific day 316 00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:50,280 Speaker 1: yesterday was the area the Bay planning at the wettest 317 00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:52,040 Speaker 1: down record with two and a half months worth of 318 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:54,360 Speaker 1: rain in twelve hours, and that created these slips in 319 00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:57,600 Speaker 1: Papa May that took two lives, and the ongoing situation 320 00:15:57,680 --> 00:16:01,040 Speaker 1: at the Mount and rescue services were rushing into dangerous 321 00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:03,840 Speaker 1: places that civilians are fearful of. And this is why 322 00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:06,080 Speaker 1: we thank those rescue services and we pay them, and 323 00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:08,320 Speaker 1: it's all over the papers today. They've been praised for 324 00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:10,840 Speaker 1: their bravery. Of course we don't pay them overly. Well, 325 00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:12,760 Speaker 1: And I'm watching all of this, and I'm hearing all 326 00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:14,200 Speaker 1: of this, and I'm listening to the news, and then 327 00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:15,960 Speaker 1: right in the middle of it, suddenly I get a 328 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:19,880 Speaker 1: new story that says the Firefighters Union has confirmed that 329 00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:23,160 Speaker 1: members of the New Zealand Professional Firefighters Union are still 330 00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:26,040 Speaker 1: scheduled to strike for one hour to day Friday from 331 00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:30,520 Speaker 1: twelve to one. I found that quite jarring in the 332 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:33,080 Speaker 1: middle of watching the rescue workers actually work, to then 333 00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:34,640 Speaker 1: be told by the way they're having a one hour 334 00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:39,760 Speaker 1: strike tomorrow. Imagine if yesterday was today and the firefighters 335 00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:42,000 Speaker 1: walked off the job in the Mount in the middle 336 00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:45,000 Speaker 1: of the rescue attempts. The last strike meant a very 337 00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:47,480 Speaker 1: nice Lebanese family paid the price of losing their lifetime 338 00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:49,000 Speaker 1: of work. And you know what, I think that sets 339 00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:52,440 Speaker 1: some New Zealanders against the firefighters and they don't need that. 340 00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:55,680 Speaker 1: They already have the high moral ground. Why would you 341 00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:59,120 Speaker 1: risk that again? I'd cancel this strike personally and point 342 00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:01,360 Speaker 1: out once again how much you're needed, how much danger 343 00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:03,280 Speaker 1: you put yourself in every day, and how you're not 344 00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:06,760 Speaker 1: paying what you're worth. Because you proved that once again yesterday. 345 00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:10,160 Speaker 1: These strikes are not helping the negotiating position. Now I'll 346 00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:13,240 Speaker 1: rephrase that they've done all they could possibly do already. 347 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:16,480 Speaker 1: I wouldn't go on strike today, to be honest, but 348 00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:17,000 Speaker 1: that's just me. 349 00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:17,479 Speaker 7: What do you think? 350 00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:20,679 Speaker 1: Ninety two ninety two? All right, the police we'll be 351 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:22,480 Speaker 1: making an update at nine o'clock this morning. We've just 352 00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:25,120 Speaker 1: heard on the situation at the Mount. Mahe Dreiser will 353 00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:28,320 Speaker 1: be joining us bore before six, Vincent Macavetti from the 354 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:31,119 Speaker 1: UK and reporters from right around New Zealand. This is 355 00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:32,600 Speaker 1: early edition on News Talks. 356 00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:51,199 Speaker 6: Ab Get ahead of the headlines on early edition with 357 00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:55,160 Speaker 6: Andrew Dickens and One roof Love Where you Live used 358 00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:55,760 Speaker 6: talks at be. 359 00:17:56,160 --> 00:18:01,720 Speaker 8: You Maybe you want baby. 360 00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:02,920 Speaker 9: Baby? 361 00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:03,920 Speaker 8: I don't. 362 00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:07,240 Speaker 1: Boders of the program, and it's about twenty four minutes 363 00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:09,439 Speaker 1: to six, and I have to make it apology. Apparently 364 00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:14,280 Speaker 1: the firefighters did call off their strike last night. Apparently 365 00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:16,960 Speaker 1: read about nine to fifteen at night. Well, I don't 366 00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:18,800 Speaker 1: know about you, but I woke up at three o'clock 367 00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:20,240 Speaker 1: in the morning and I was well in bed by 368 00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:22,119 Speaker 1: nine fifteen last night. I came in this morning, I 369 00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:25,280 Speaker 1: found no mention of the cancelation of the firefighters striking 370 00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:27,800 Speaker 1: our news channels as yet. The only thing I did 371 00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:31,440 Speaker 1: find just now was a Facebook post about it from 372 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,360 Speaker 1: four hours ago. So it took them for all day 373 00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:36,399 Speaker 1: and a long time to decide to cancel it. So 374 00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:38,800 Speaker 1: that's a good thing, isn't it. I guess I have 375 00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:40,959 Speaker 1: to say. Yesterday when I heard it, it was jarring. 376 00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:43,639 Speaker 1: Some people are texting saying, well, isn't that proving just 377 00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:45,760 Speaker 1: how valuable these people are and therefore they should be 378 00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:46,560 Speaker 1: given their pay rise. 379 00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:46,960 Speaker 7: I don't know. 380 00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:50,639 Speaker 1: I really don't know now the why Katta Regional Theater 381 00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:54,399 Speaker 1: is a major new performing arts venue in Hamilton, and 382 00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:57,159 Speaker 1: it opened its doors just the other day with a 383 00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:59,680 Speaker 1: big old function for the High and Mighty in Hamilton 384 00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:02,840 Speaker 1: and It's designed to become the White Katto's flagship cultural hub, 385 00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:05,359 Speaker 1: and it's a brilliant building. It took five years to 386 00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:09,760 Speaker 1: build and money was raised for from the private sector 387 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:12,520 Speaker 1: from the community as opposed to council money. It's on 388 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:15,680 Speaker 1: the site of the old Heritage Hamilton Hotel, so they've 389 00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:18,359 Speaker 1: kept that facade. It looks good. It's right there by 390 00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:21,199 Speaker 1: the riverside, it's right by the eating precinct, it's right 391 00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:25,080 Speaker 1: by the museum. It's in a perfect location. Its seats 392 00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:28,440 Speaker 1: thirteen hundred odd in a steep enormous, old fashioned manner. 393 00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:30,800 Speaker 1: I mean they've got boxes and balconies. I mean it 394 00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:33,040 Speaker 1: looks incredible. And of course the whole thing is state 395 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:35,240 Speaker 1: of the art. And so this theater is going to 396 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:38,440 Speaker 1: host international acts and national tours and community performances and 397 00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:42,400 Speaker 1: a full week of opening celebrations, and tonight it's having 398 00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:45,480 Speaker 1: its first ever public event and the first event is 399 00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:50,640 Speaker 1: Kiwi Krohner Teaks. I adore I've seen Ticks a couple 400 00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:52,959 Speaker 1: of times before, great voice, and guess what I got 401 00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:55,879 Speaker 1: invited along to look at the building and to see Teaks, 402 00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:58,640 Speaker 1: who I believe has the potential to be an international star. 403 00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:01,720 Speaker 1: Just as big as Marlon Williams, even better. So watch 404 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:05,440 Speaker 1: out way, kaddo, We're coming your way. We're coming to 405 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:07,400 Speaker 1: your new theater.

It comes 416 00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:40,440 Speaker 10: almost a year after that earlier proposal to open near 417 00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:43,360 Speaker 10: Mound's Iron on the entrance to the town was rejected 418 00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:47,400 Speaker 10: after ninety percent of submissions opposed the idea, the majority 419 00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:50,560 Speaker 10: siting concerns about lizard traffic, visual impact ceture on the 420 00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:54,840 Speaker 10: preservation of Wonnica's natural landscape.

Andrew. 435 00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:36,639 Speaker 5: This is the mastermind of a Canterbury University student, Olivia Cooper, 436 00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:40,560 Speaker 5: who's launched green Shift Packaging. This is a startup which 437 00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:45,480 Speaker 5: will turn surplus seaweed into compostable packaging designed to replace 438 00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:49,120 Speaker 5: our single use plastics. She's eighteen. She's already in talks 439 00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:53,160 Speaker 5: with some local bakeries here to trial this seaweed based wrap, 440 00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:56,480 Speaker 5: which will break down naturally after being used. Cooper says 441 00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:59,360 Speaker 5: seaweed's a unique plant with many benefits for the environment 442 00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:03,000 Speaker 5: as doesn't need soil it's very fast growing and climate 443 00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:06,359 Speaker 5: positive because it actually sucks up carbon from the atmosphere. 444 00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:08,920 Speaker 5: She came up with this idea after seeing a US 445 00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:13,359 Speaker 5: company making seaweed bioplastic on YouTube. Cooper then gave it 446 00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:16,239 Speaker 5: a try in her own kitchen and the project has 447 00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:17,120 Speaker 5: taken off from there. 448 00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:18,760 Speaker 1: Good stuf.

Yesterday the reservoir at the 518 00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:38,800 Speaker 1: top of the Paku Mountain failed. A whole heap of 519 00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:42,120 Speaker 1: water came screaming down. It's completely blocked off Montehole Road, 520 00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:44,320 Speaker 1: which is how I get to my batch.

President Zelenski 548 00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:13,920 Speaker 8: saying that Europe loves to discuss the future but avoids 549 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:16,600 Speaker 8: taking action. Today. It's saying that the continent has to 550 00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:20,520 Speaker 8: do more to protect itself, particularly those Balkan nations, from 551 00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:24,159 Speaker 8: Russian aggression, because he thinks unless Ukraine can get a 552 00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:27,480 Speaker 8: peace deal soon that keeps some of the majority of 553 00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:30,480 Speaker 8: its territory, that Russia will be emboldened and will strike 554 00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:31,120 Speaker 8: Europe again. 555 00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:32,640 Speaker 1: Absolutely. 556 00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:33,760 Speaker 4: So. 557 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:36,800 Speaker 1: Meanwhile, we had the big court case which is hppening 558 00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:40,000 Speaker 1: with Printerry against the Daily Mail, and now we've got 559 00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:42,960 Speaker 1: Liz Hurley coming in to the doc. 560 00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:44,160 Speaker 4: Yeah. 561 00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:46,040 Speaker 8: I've been in court for this case all week. It's 562 00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:48,520 Speaker 8: expected to go on for some eight weeks and it's 563 00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:52,160 Speaker 8: incredibly rare that it's got here because for the past decade, 564 00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:54,400 Speaker 8: every court case like this to do with the kind 565 00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:57,040 Speaker 8: of practices of the tabloids in the nineties and two 566 00:27:57,160 --> 00:28:00,439 Speaker 8: thousands has been settled out of court because of kind 567 00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:02,920 Speaker 8: of quirks in our law basically that kind of force 568 00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:05,800 Speaker 8: the claimants to do so. But Prince Harry Elton, John, 569 00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:08,760 Speaker 8: Liz Hurley, Sadie Frost among those who have taken The 570 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:12,000 Speaker 8: Daily Mail, the biggest tabloid newspaper in Britain, all the 571 00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:15,439 Speaker 8: way to this trial. Yesterday, Prince Harry was there talking 572 00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:19,240 Speaker 8: about the ways that journalists had harassed him about what 573 00:28:19,359 --> 00:28:21,600 Speaker 8: they had done to his state of mind. Today it 574 00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:24,320 Speaker 8: was the turn of Liz Hurley, who was also very 575 00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 8: emotional upset, talking about microphones being placed on her home 576 00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:33,000 Speaker 8: windows to get stories, brutal invasions of privacy. Journalists doing 577 00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:35,800 Speaker 8: something called blagging, which is kind of faking who you are, 578 00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:38,520 Speaker 8: so pretending, for instance, to be someone's assistant to get 579 00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:41,880 Speaker 8: information about them, some of its sensitive, even health records. 580 00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:43,800 Speaker 8: So this trial will go on and it's going to 581 00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:44,720 Speaker 8: be pretty blockbuster. 582 00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:48,920 Speaker 1: Did Liz have any evidence of the microphones, like photographs 583 00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:51,720 Speaker 1: or you know, any physical evidence or just what she seen. 584 00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:55,560 Speaker 8: No, it was her testimony on this which she said. 585 00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:59,200 Speaker 8: She also talks about having conversations around you know, her father, 586 00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:02,880 Speaker 8: the father of her son, Damien, and those conversations only 587 00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:05,160 Speaker 8: being shared with the likes of Elton John and David 588 00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:08,760 Speaker 8: Furnish and ending up in the tabloid. So the defense 589 00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:11,440 Speaker 8: says that they deny all this. They say that people 590 00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:14,920 Speaker 8: around these people were leaking to them. But this case 591 00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:17,160 Speaker 8: we're going to hear more from Sadie Frost, who was 592 00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:20,800 Speaker 8: the wife of Jude Law. Politicians as well and victims 593 00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:24,280 Speaker 8: of crime about what they say happened the papers. You know, 594 00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:27,080 Speaker 8: we're using a lot of private investigators at this time. 595 00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:30,080 Speaker 1: All right mcavinnie, I thank you.

We're getting reports 600 00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:45,400 Speaker 1: that they're now using spades. 601 00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:52,000 Speaker 12: Look, we've said, yeah, they're doing a lot of good work. 602 00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:57,960 Speaker 12: You know, they've moved a lot of overnight. Unfortunately, we're 603 00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:04,480 Speaker 12: still to identify or find any anyone. It is still 604 00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:07,880 Speaker 12: very much a rescue effort. So you know, I think 605 00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:12,560 Speaker 12: when when they find a place of interest, they will 606 00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:17,040 Speaker 12: use spades. But the diggers are very much continuing with 607 00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:17,920 Speaker 12: with the search. 608 00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:22,760 Speaker 1: Have you spoken to the families who might have people 609 00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:23,840 Speaker 1: that are unaccounted for? 610 00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:28,600 Speaker 12: Yes, Look, we focused most of our day yesterday on 611 00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:32,080 Speaker 12: on trying to support the families.

So look, it's 615 00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:48,400 Speaker 12: it was a pretty emotional data to be honest, you know, 616 00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:51,960 Speaker 12: but but we're doing what we can. There's the family 617 00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:55,720 Speaker 12: in liaison, officers from the police that are supporting them. 618 00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:58,600 Speaker 12: And look, I can just just say the community have 619 00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:03,200 Speaker 12: been absolutely amazing with you know, the care packages they 620 00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:07,440 Speaker 12: brought down, the the support they give along with fa 621 00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:10,360 Speaker 12: the volunteers, you know, the surf life savers and fans 622 00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:13,680 Speaker 12: and police.

Of course, so your cuts are over 663 00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:29,520 Speaker 3: because last year was all about the cuts, So the 664 00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:32,520 Speaker 3: cuts are almost certainly over. And then the conversation the 665 00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:35,520 Speaker 3: election year becomes do the Arby get back in bold 666 00:33:35,560 --> 00:33:36,400 Speaker 3: and a possible hike? 667 00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:38,800 Speaker 1: Well, Baggery was on with me today.

However, if the infation comes down 673 00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:54,920 Speaker 1: or stays still, Nashville can say we're in the great fiscalship. 674 00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:57,520 Speaker 3: Well, that's what makes them election year so interesting.
