After two o'clock, we want 91 00:05:01,213 --> 00:05:05,093 Speaker 3: to talk about those people who dump trash and rubbish 92 00:05:05,133 --> 00:05:06,213 Speaker 3: outside of charity still. 93 00:05:06,293 --> 00:05:08,493 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right. Our producer Andrew, he's come up the 94 00:05:08,533 --> 00:05:12,893 Speaker 2: name for them, chumpers. Yeah, they're charity dumpers. They're chumps. 95 00:05:12,573 --> 00:05:15,133 Speaker 2: It's so cruel. There's a woman facing a four hundred 96 00:05:15,133 --> 00:05:16,813 Speaker 2: dollars fine for doing it, and look, if you read 97 00:05:16,853 --> 00:05:19,413 Speaker 2: the article, she seems to be a little bit was 98 00:05:19,453 --> 00:05:21,013 Speaker 2: a little bit confused about it, and she might not 99 00:05:21,053 --> 00:05:24,133 Speaker 2: have been dumping maliciously, but even so, you feel sorry 100 00:05:24,173 --> 00:05:27,213 Speaker 2: for those people running charity shops that they arrive on 101 00:05:27,253 --> 00:05:30,573 Speaker 2: Monday morning, and they're looking, let's get stuck into doing 102 00:05:30,573 --> 00:05:33,973 Speaker 2: some charity. It's Monday, let's get going. And there's a stinky, old, 103 00:05:34,013 --> 00:05:37,013 Speaker 2: soiled couch out the front. There's four thousand copies of 104 00:05:37,693 --> 00:05:40,053 Speaker 2: Dan Brand's the Davici Code that they can't do anything with. 105 00:05:40,893 --> 00:05:44,253 Speaker 2: There's a whole lot of broken crockery and they've got 106 00:05:44,293 --> 00:05:46,693 Speaker 2: to deal with it them. You've made it their problem. 107 00:05:46,773 --> 00:05:49,333 Speaker 2: You're treating a charity store like a dump. Take it 108 00:05:49,333 --> 00:05:51,413 Speaker 2: to the charity store when they're open and they'll tell 109 00:05:51,413 --> 00:05:52,213 Speaker 2: you if they want it or not. 110 00:05:52,293 --> 00:05:54,853 Speaker 3: It was quite specific about Dan brown'store. I take it 111 00:05:54,973 --> 00:05:56,373 Speaker 3: as a story behind that metthe. 112 00:05:56,533 --> 00:05:58,013 Speaker 2: I tried to give a lot of books to a 113 00:05:58,053 --> 00:05:59,533 Speaker 2: prison at one point and they didn't want any of 114 00:05:59,573 --> 00:06:00,213 Speaker 2: my Dan Brown. 115 00:06:00,333 --> 00:06:02,893 Speaker 3: If a prison doesn't make it, yeah, right that is 116 00:06:02,933 --> 00:06:05,133 Speaker 3: after two o'clock, because right now, let's have a chat 117 00:06:05,173 --> 00:06:08,293 Speaker 3: about road tolling. It's on the back of this invest 118 00:06:08,453 --> 00:06:11,813 Speaker 3: mint summit. So the government has told the international investors 119 00:06:11,813 --> 00:06:13,773 Speaker 3: that have come here at once they're helping deciding on 120 00:06:13,813 --> 00:06:19,053 Speaker 3: the options for a second Auckland Harbor crossing Chris Bishop, 121 00:06:19,053 --> 00:06:20,853 Speaker 3: who is the Minister of Infrastructure. 122 00:06:20,853 --> 00:06:22,013 Speaker 2: He went on to tall. 123 00:06:21,853 --> 00:06:25,573 Speaker 3: Attendees that the government was exploring tolling concessions to speed 124 00:06:25,693 --> 00:06:29,973 Speaker 3: uproad construction. All roads of national significance are being assessed 125 00:06:30,013 --> 00:06:31,093 Speaker 3: for tolling. 126 00:06:31,533 --> 00:06:35,133 Speaker 2: So private public partnerships. When you go into a private 127 00:06:35,133 --> 00:06:38,253 Speaker 2: public partnership, as a country, you're the public side of it, 128 00:06:38,293 --> 00:06:39,853 Speaker 2: but the private side of it wants to make their 129 00:06:39,853 --> 00:06:42,253 Speaker 2: money back, so they're investing a lot. We have to 130 00:06:42,253 --> 00:06:44,893 Speaker 2: pay them back, and one of the ways as tolls. 131 00:06:45,213 --> 00:06:46,693 Speaker 2: So you know, there's been a lot of talk about 132 00:06:46,733 --> 00:06:50,613 Speaker 2: the fifteen Roads of National significance. If they are a 133 00:06:50,613 --> 00:06:52,933 Speaker 2: private public partnership, they're more than likely going to have 134 00:06:52,933 --> 00:06:54,133 Speaker 2: tolls on them. So how do you feel about it? 135 00:06:54,453 --> 00:06:56,693 Speaker 2: Do you feel good? Would you? I mean? Or do 136 00:06:56,773 --> 00:06:58,693 Speaker 2: you think, Look, I already pay my taxes, already pay 137 00:06:59,253 --> 00:07:02,093 Speaker 2: a tax on my fuel outcome. I'm also having to 138 00:07:02,093 --> 00:07:03,933 Speaker 2: play a toll for this road. Or do you think 139 00:07:04,213 --> 00:07:07,333 Speaker 2: beautiful roads going to make my life better? Happy to 140 00:07:07,333 --> 00:07:07,733 Speaker 2: cough up? 141 00:07:07,933 --> 00:07:11,653 Speaker 3: Yeah, I would be leaning into the second column, I think, 142 00:07:11,693 --> 00:07:14,253 Speaker 3: And I'm someone hand up that I don't travel on 143 00:07:14,293 --> 00:07:16,613 Speaker 3: toll roads that often or at all, but I like 144 00:07:16,693 --> 00:07:18,853 Speaker 3: the idea of user pays that if you're using a 145 00:07:18,933 --> 00:07:20,733 Speaker 3: road on a regular basis and you've got to pay 146 00:07:20,773 --> 00:07:21,733 Speaker 3: two bucks each way. 147 00:07:21,653 --> 00:07:22,533 Speaker 2: Whatever it is. 148 00:07:22,653 --> 00:07:25,693 Speaker 3: Then that money is going directly into a road that 149 00:07:25,813 --> 00:07:29,493 Speaker 3: you are using versus everybody else stead of chipping in 150 00:07:29,533 --> 00:07:32,053 Speaker 3: it. It just seems to be a fairer way to do it. Then, 151 00:07:32,253 --> 00:07:35,133 Speaker 3: you know, they're talking about this congestion charging situation that 152 00:07:35,213 --> 00:07:38,293 Speaker 3: seems messy and complex and unfair and a whole bunch 153 00:07:38,333 --> 00:07:39,853 Speaker 3: of fish hooks, and we're tolling. 154 00:07:39,933 --> 00:07:42,253 Speaker 2: It's just easy. Yeah, I mean it used to be 155 00:07:42,253 --> 00:07:44,853 Speaker 2: called back in the days. And I was in Bangkok 156 00:07:44,893 --> 00:07:46,973 Speaker 2: not so long ago, and you're still throwing coin coins 157 00:07:47,773 --> 00:07:50,613 Speaker 2: into the the guy as you drive through. That's pretty cool. 158 00:07:50,893 --> 00:07:52,493 Speaker 2: So toll roads on as fun as they used to be, 159 00:07:52,733 --> 00:07:56,733 Speaker 2: it would just happen automatically. I guess you'll pay. We'll 160 00:07:56,773 --> 00:07:59,653 Speaker 2: pay either way. So either we pay by tolls or 161 00:08:00,013 --> 00:08:02,093 Speaker 2: and as you say specifically to the people that are 162 00:08:02,173 --> 00:08:05,213 Speaker 2: using it, paid by tolls, or we borrow all the 163 00:08:05,213 --> 00:08:07,693 Speaker 2: money and then all of us pay it back and 164 00:08:07,813 --> 00:08:08,933 Speaker 2: we end up paying anyway. 165 00:08:09,013 --> 00:08:11,013 Speaker 3: Yeah, because I think correct me if I'm wrong. But 166 00:08:11,093 --> 00:08:13,493 Speaker 3: how they do it with some of the tolls in 167 00:08:13,533 --> 00:08:16,213 Speaker 3: the North Island and further Northland is if you're a 168 00:08:16,253 --> 00:08:18,893 Speaker 3: heavy user of transport, you get a concession, don't you? 169 00:08:19,133 --> 00:08:21,533 Speaker 3: Or you can pay a yearly fee that's a little 170 00:08:21,533 --> 00:08:24,293 Speaker 3: bit less than pain each time you go through that toll. 171 00:08:24,413 --> 00:08:27,493 Speaker 2: Which makes sense to get another subscription of subscription to 172 00:08:27,533 --> 00:08:30,853 Speaker 2: the new Auckland Harbour Cross crossing. Get a yearly subscription 173 00:08:30,933 --> 00:08:33,612 Speaker 2: and save twenty percent on your toll roads. A subscription 174 00:08:33,732 --> 00:08:37,693 Speaker 2: to walkward to Welsford. Yeah, oh, eight hundred eighty ten eighty. 175 00:08:37,732 --> 00:08:39,213 Speaker 2: How do you feel about the idea? Did you get 176 00:08:39,253 --> 00:08:41,892 Speaker 2: a nationwide subscription so you also get the Hawks Bay 177 00:08:41,933 --> 00:08:42,613 Speaker 2: Expressway in. 178 00:08:42,852 --> 00:08:45,372 Speaker 3: Oh, you get a combo deal, the combo deal of 179 00:08:45,693 --> 00:08:47,732 Speaker 3: the three toll roads and save fifty percent. 180 00:08:47,892 --> 00:08:49,533 Speaker 2: I'm down for that.

Is that 185 00:08:59,573 --> 00:09:01,493 Speaker 3: a fair way to do it? Or do you see 186 00:09:01,492 --> 00:09:02,893 Speaker 3: some problems with it? Love to hear from you. 187 00:09:02,973 --> 00:09:05,933 Speaker 2: Nine to nine two is the text number.

But Chris Bishop, the Minister 202 00:09:42,732 --> 00:09:46,612 Speaker 3: of Infrastructure, has also told attendees the government was exploring 203 00:09:46,732 --> 00:09:52,132 Speaker 3: tolling concessions to speed up these roading construction projects and 204 00:09:52,173 --> 00:09:56,652 Speaker 3: all roads of national significance are being assessed for tolling options. 205 00:09:56,653 --> 00:09:59,012 Speaker 3: So is it a good idea to help pay for 206 00:09:59,093 --> 00:10:01,333 Speaker 3: some of these highways that we desperately need? 207 00:10:01,492 --> 00:10:01,612 Speaker 6: Hey? 208 00:10:01,653 --> 00:10:04,173 Speaker 2: Yeah, and if you remember the Auckland Harbor Bridge toll, 209 00:10:04,973 --> 00:10:06,732 Speaker 2: how do that work? I bentioned? So that was just 210 00:10:06,892 --> 00:10:09,533 Speaker 2: a driving past at pace having a coin in there? 211 00:10:09,612 --> 00:10:12,133 Speaker 2: Is that how it worked? Ordered with their big cues 212 00:10:12,173 --> 00:10:15,333 Speaker 2: to go through. When did they stop tolling that? Now 213 00:10:15,372 --> 00:10:17,813 Speaker 2: that that's a good question. Yeah, when did they stop 214 00:10:17,852 --> 00:10:20,573 Speaker 2: tolling the Ukland Harbor Bridge. Was it paid off? 215 00:10:20,693 --> 00:10:23,292 Speaker 3: Oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty is the number to call. 216 00:10:23,372 --> 00:10:27,573 Speaker 3: Some great texts coming through on nine to nine two. 217 00:10:28,693 --> 00:10:31,773 Speaker 3: This one says, hey, guys, toll roads are a great 218 00:10:32,372 --> 00:10:36,533 Speaker 3: way to get new infrastructure delivered quicker. However, the original 219 00:10:36,653 --> 00:10:39,333 Speaker 3: also must be in place. People must be given the alternative. 220 00:10:39,413 --> 00:10:41,973 Speaker 3: Forcing people onto toll roads is a force tax, and 221 00:10:42,053 --> 00:10:44,933 Speaker 3: that is wrong. You want a better option, pay if 222 00:10:44,973 --> 00:10:46,653 Speaker 3: you don't, don't use it from Anthony. 223 00:10:47,093 --> 00:10:49,533 Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, very good, and. 224 00:10:49,453 --> 00:10:51,012 Speaker 3: I think that is part of the deal. If you've 225 00:10:51,053 --> 00:10:53,372 Speaker 3: got a toll roads, you need to provide an alternative. 226 00:10:53,973 --> 00:10:57,173 Speaker 3: But oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty is the number 227 00:10:57,213 --> 00:10:57,732 Speaker 3: to call. 228 00:10:58,612 --> 00:11:00,293 Speaker 2: Greg, How are you this afternoon? 229 00:11:01,413 --> 00:11:01,613 Speaker 7: Good? 230 00:11:01,653 --> 00:11:03,732 Speaker 8: Thanks guys. Where you think toll roads are a great 231 00:11:03,813 --> 00:11:06,213 Speaker 8: idea and I think they should be if you can 232 00:11:06,252 --> 00:11:09,013 Speaker 8: get the road built faster. You know, they were talking 233 00:11:09,012 --> 00:11:11,453 Speaker 8: about building the harbor Bridge and the or the tunnel 234 00:11:11,492 --> 00:11:14,053 Speaker 8: whatever it is, and the Northern Toll Road built them together, 235 00:11:14,213 --> 00:11:16,253 Speaker 8: get two lots of people in it, and I don't 236 00:11:16,252 --> 00:11:19,293 Speaker 8: care if they're told. What frustrates me, though, is we 237 00:11:19,413 --> 00:11:21,533 Speaker 8: have three toll roads in the country at the moment, 238 00:11:22,093 --> 00:11:25,493 Speaker 8: and two of them are in Taroga and the new 239 00:11:25,573 --> 00:11:28,213 Speaker 8: road they're building is going to be the third toll 240 00:11:28,293 --> 00:11:30,293 Speaker 8: road in Taroga, and there's only going to be sex 241 00:11:30,372 --> 00:11:32,973 Speaker 8: toll roads and New Zealand at this stage. And I 242 00:11:33,012 --> 00:11:35,532 Speaker 8: wrote to the Minister of Transport about it, saying, look, 243 00:11:36,053 --> 00:11:38,453 Speaker 8: it's all well and good tolling grades, but you're going 244 00:11:38,492 --> 00:11:40,453 Speaker 8: to have to make a little bit fairer because the 245 00:11:40,453 --> 00:11:43,373 Speaker 8: people at Tarong already paying massive rates and they pay 246 00:11:43,413 --> 00:11:46,533 Speaker 8: the water, and I think they have two of the 247 00:11:46,573 --> 00:11:48,852 Speaker 8: three toll roads and you're just whacking another lad on 248 00:11:50,173 --> 00:11:52,693 Speaker 8: the same people. I think that was the thing that 249 00:11:52,693 --> 00:11:55,693 Speaker 8: frustrated me, Like you know, Manu. 250 00:11:55,492 --> 00:11:56,213 Speaker 6: Of Aitu Gorge. 251 00:11:56,252 --> 00:11:58,292 Speaker 8: The locals down there got all up in arms and 252 00:11:58,372 --> 00:12:00,292 Speaker 8: nancy about it. They didn't want to tie raids, so 253 00:12:00,372 --> 00:12:01,852 Speaker 8: what was the government to do pull the pin on 254 00:12:01,892 --> 00:12:04,852 Speaker 8: tolling them. And I just think, I really don't have 255 00:12:04,892 --> 00:12:07,853 Speaker 8: a problem with it, but if you're going to do it, 256 00:12:08,053 --> 00:12:10,973 Speaker 8: you know, we don't just put it all in one place. 257 00:12:11,173 --> 00:12:13,693 Speaker 8: And I think that was it really did frustrate me, 258 00:12:13,693 --> 00:12:15,973 Speaker 8: because you know, and then they said, oh, if you 259 00:12:16,053 --> 00:12:18,293 Speaker 8: go over both roads, you'll only get charged for one. Well, 260 00:12:18,333 --> 00:12:22,093 Speaker 8: that's not really the issue, is it. Yeah, So I 261 00:12:22,093 --> 00:12:26,892 Speaker 8: do think the public private partnerships is a great idea, 262 00:12:26,973 --> 00:12:31,293 Speaker 8: and it doesn't it doesn't really matter, you know. Pipkins 263 00:12:31,372 --> 00:12:33,773 Speaker 8: is rabbiting on this morning about oh, the governments could 264 00:12:33,773 --> 00:12:37,653 Speaker 8: build it cheaper themselves, but the reality is they can't. 265 00:12:38,012 --> 00:12:43,652 Speaker 8: The only time that having a massive over inflated bureaucracy 266 00:12:43,693 --> 00:12:47,492 Speaker 8: of every department was when we had the Ministry of Works. 267 00:12:48,173 --> 00:12:50,093 Speaker 8: They had far too many people, but at least we 268 00:12:50,213 --> 00:12:53,892 Speaker 8: got something for our money. So I don't mind if 269 00:12:53,892 --> 00:12:56,173 Speaker 8: we if somebody makes a good profit out of build 270 00:12:56,173 --> 00:12:57,772 Speaker 8: the road, as long as the road gets called, I 271 00:12:57,773 --> 00:12:59,772 Speaker 8: don't even mind paying a toll on it. 272 00:12:59,413 --> 00:13:01,693 Speaker 5: Yeah, just just get in and do it. 273 00:13:01,933 --> 00:13:04,053 Speaker 3: Yeah, just quickly to your point about totong Or, no 274 00:13:04,173 --> 00:13:06,372 Speaker 3: doubt about it. The people of totong Or are being 275 00:13:06,612 --> 00:13:11,693 Speaker 3: you know, slammed with some unfair costs. And as you say, 276 00:13:11,693 --> 00:13:13,372 Speaker 3: those two of the toll roads out of the four 277 00:13:13,413 --> 00:13:16,453 Speaker 3: that exist in the country. But if going forward, you say, 278 00:13:16,612 --> 00:13:20,253 Speaker 3: every new road of national significance, as I believe the 279 00:13:20,252 --> 00:13:23,653 Speaker 3: government want to do, will be told no, it's no, butts, 280 00:13:23,852 --> 00:13:26,973 Speaker 3: doesn't that make things a bit clearer for everybody? That 281 00:13:27,093 --> 00:13:29,813 Speaker 3: big infrastructure projects will be told no matter where they 282 00:13:29,813 --> 00:13:31,813 Speaker 3: are in the country. 283 00:13:32,252 --> 00:13:37,052 Speaker 8: I actually wouldn't have a problem with that. I do, Yeah, 284 00:13:37,093 --> 00:13:40,653 Speaker 8: I wouldn't have a problem with that. But depending you know, 285 00:13:40,693 --> 00:13:44,293 Speaker 8: likely you're building all your infrastructure in one place at 286 00:13:44,293 --> 00:13:47,012 Speaker 8: the same time. That's hardly fearing most people. But they 287 00:13:47,053 --> 00:13:49,693 Speaker 8: do get the benefit, right except that, right. 288 00:13:51,653 --> 00:13:51,933 Speaker 2: I do. 289 00:13:52,093 --> 00:13:54,373 Speaker 8: I do think, you know, we one of the road 290 00:13:54,492 --> 00:13:58,733 Speaker 8: toll roads I go tring it's it's not up to 291 00:13:58,892 --> 00:14:01,492 Speaker 8: stand it at all. And I keep telling my wife 292 00:14:01,492 --> 00:14:04,052 Speaker 8: would be driving over the look, we're paying for this, 293 00:14:04,132 --> 00:14:07,413 Speaker 8: and it's disgraceful, right it's you know, it's absolutely disgusting road. 294 00:14:07,813 --> 00:14:10,813 Speaker 8: And I think, but they do other dumb stuff. The 295 00:14:10,813 --> 00:14:12,533 Speaker 8: other toll road over in Taring are the one that 296 00:14:12,573 --> 00:14:15,373 Speaker 8: goes out past your cookie that in the process of 297 00:14:15,413 --> 00:14:19,773 Speaker 8: building and to change at Peppermart East, which should have 298 00:14:19,773 --> 00:14:21,493 Speaker 8: been built when the road was built five or six 299 00:14:21,573 --> 00:14:24,933 Speaker 8: years ago, and just a lack of foresight and lack 300 00:14:24,973 --> 00:14:28,893 Speaker 8: of planning if they were, And that's a toll road. 301 00:14:29,253 --> 00:14:33,573 Speaker 8: And I just cannot believe that when you're doing something 302 00:14:33,613 --> 00:14:35,813 Speaker 8: like that, you don't do it properly, you know, And 303 00:14:35,853 --> 00:14:39,013 Speaker 8: it's just it's heartbreaking at times when you see this 304 00:14:39,053 --> 00:14:41,493 Speaker 8: thing that could have cost thirty million dollars costing one 305 00:14:41,573 --> 00:14:43,532 Speaker 8: hundred and fifty million dollars because they didn't build it 306 00:14:43,533 --> 00:14:46,853 Speaker 8: when they should have. And that's another thing where if 307 00:14:46,853 --> 00:14:49,292 Speaker 8: we're going to get the infrastructure built by overseas people 308 00:14:49,373 --> 00:14:52,053 Speaker 8: get clam for the next thirty years, which is what 309 00:14:52,093 --> 00:14:55,133 Speaker 8: the government wants to do, and build it for the 310 00:14:55,173 --> 00:14:57,533 Speaker 8: next thirty years, not for the next five years, you know, 311 00:14:57,773 --> 00:14:58,412 Speaker 8: So you must. 312 00:14:58,253 --> 00:15:00,933 Speaker 2: Be pleased that there's sort of a bipartisan approach coming 313 00:15:00,973 --> 00:15:02,693 Speaker 2: through at this infrastructure summer. 314 00:15:03,493 --> 00:15:06,293 Speaker 8: I think that's the biggest plus out of this whole 315 00:15:06,333 --> 00:15:08,973 Speaker 8: thing is if they can get laid a national on 316 00:15:09,053 --> 00:15:11,493 Speaker 8: board together on this infrastructure for the next thirty years, 317 00:15:11,813 --> 00:15:14,413 Speaker 8: finally the country, whether we have to pay for it 318 00:15:14,453 --> 00:15:17,933 Speaker 8: with toll roads or whatever, the country will finally start 319 00:15:17,973 --> 00:15:21,013 Speaker 8: to go forward. Because you know, if you look at 320 00:15:21,213 --> 00:15:23,893 Speaker 8: going to Taronga at Pirari, they're going to roundabout it 321 00:15:23,933 --> 00:15:26,333 Speaker 8: there that was supposed to be a flyover forty three 322 00:15:26,373 --> 00:15:28,733 Speaker 8: million dollars because labor pulled the pin on the motorway 323 00:15:28,733 --> 00:15:32,693 Speaker 8: game there and it's just a total and absolute waste 324 00:15:32,693 --> 00:15:35,053 Speaker 8: of money. It's made it a bit safer, but it 325 00:15:35,093 --> 00:15:37,693 Speaker 8: should have been done properly, you know. And if we 326 00:15:37,733 --> 00:15:40,773 Speaker 8: can get everything done properly, whether we pay for toll 327 00:15:40,853 --> 00:15:41,933 Speaker 8: roads and I'm all for. 328 00:15:41,973 --> 00:15:44,773 Speaker 3: It, well, I think so much for you call Greg yeah, 329 00:15:44,933 --> 00:15:48,253 Speaker 3: very interesting when they brought in the and I know 330 00:15:48,293 --> 00:15:50,373 Speaker 3: they've got rid of it now, but the Auckland Regional 331 00:15:50,373 --> 00:15:53,093 Speaker 3: fuel tax, that to me, as a South Islander at 332 00:15:53,093 --> 00:15:55,133 Speaker 3: the time, I thought that was very unfair way to 333 00:15:55,133 --> 00:15:57,493 Speaker 3: do it. And the argument around that was that most 334 00:15:57,613 --> 00:16:02,173 Speaker 3: of the infrastructure builds and projects were with an Auckland. 335 00:16:02,213 --> 00:16:03,933 Speaker 3: But the idea of a toll road is that it 336 00:16:04,053 --> 00:16:07,733 Speaker 3: is centralized to the people that use that road on 337 00:16:07,733 --> 00:16:10,653 Speaker 3: a regular by, So the people of Todonger are the 338 00:16:10,693 --> 00:16:14,413 Speaker 3: ones paying for these new highways. But that to me 339 00:16:14,493 --> 00:16:17,133 Speaker 3: makes a lot more sense than the idea of ring fencing. 340 00:16:17,333 --> 00:16:19,573 Speaker 3: You know, an extra ten cents on a lider of petrol. 341 00:16:19,973 --> 00:16:23,213 Speaker 3: It feels a lot fairer to me.

Two billion dollar project wasn't told. 344 00:16:29,213 --> 00:16:30,813 Speaker 3: I think that was a mistake. I think that should 345 00:16:30,813 --> 00:16:32,853 Speaker 3: have been told. That to me would have been a 346 00:16:32,893 --> 00:16:33,573 Speaker 3: fair thing to do. 347 00:16:33,693 --> 00:16:36,133 Speaker 2: Well, Why are they slapping around totong are and letting 348 00:16:36,173 --> 00:16:37,133 Speaker 2: Christitch off the hot. 349 00:16:37,053 --> 00:16:39,373 Speaker 3: A good question, abright.

I'm pretty sure it 494 00:23:28,413 --> 00:23:30,813 Speaker 14: was they took the people out of the booze and yeah, 495 00:23:30,893 --> 00:23:32,413 Speaker 14: you have to have the right money to drop it in. 496 00:23:32,613 --> 00:23:35,013 Speaker 3: Something nice about the analogue nature of it, though, wasn't 497 00:23:35,533 --> 00:23:38,733 Speaker 3: you just drop it in rather than this digital nonsense? 498 00:23:40,013 --> 00:23:41,493 Speaker 14: Yeah, well that's what it was like when I first 499 00:23:41,493 --> 00:23:42,933 Speaker 14: started again in the US too, there was a lot 500 00:23:42,973 --> 00:23:44,533 Speaker 14: of that, but now it's all you know, so they're 501 00:23:44,533 --> 00:23:47,373 Speaker 14: automatically cold, and I do business up there and everyone 502 00:23:47,453 --> 00:23:48,533 Speaker 14: just got it on their windscreens. 503 00:23:48,613 --> 00:23:50,773 Speaker 2: Yeah, would you back yourself? Thank you, Peter, you got 504 00:23:50,773 --> 00:23:53,973 Speaker 2: it right? Yeah, two two and six ye, which is 505 00:23:54,013 --> 00:23:58,573 Speaker 2: about probably eight bucks now. Ooh that's steep, isn't it? 506 00:23:58,573 --> 00:24:02,333 Speaker 2: So Boks one way? Yeah, who, it's a lot of coin. 507 00:24:02,453 --> 00:24:02,653 Speaker 5: Yeah. 508 00:24:02,813 --> 00:24:04,333 Speaker 2: Would you beg yourself to get it in the little 509 00:24:04,333 --> 00:24:06,373 Speaker 2: bin at eighty k across the Harbor Bridge. 510 00:24:07,013 --> 00:24:09,573 Speaker 3: I'd love to give it a shot. I suppose if 511 00:24:09,573 --> 00:24:10,853 Speaker 3: you missed then you're going to go back and pick 512 00:24:10,893 --> 00:24:12,733 Speaker 3: it up and try again. It would be a bit awkward. 513 00:24:12,773 --> 00:24:13,613 Speaker 2: I think you've got it. 514 00:24:13,973 --> 00:24:16,733 Speaker 3: Yeah right, We're going to take more of your cause 515 00:24:16,813 --> 00:24:18,733 Speaker 3: very shortly. Oh eight, one hundred and eighty ten eighty 516 00:24:18,813 --> 00:24:21,933 Speaker 3: is the number to call. It is twenty five to two. 517 00:24:22,533 --> 00:24:23,413 Speaker 5: Matt Tyler. 518 00:24:24,133 --> 00:24:26,733 Speaker 3: What to help us break down what is a private 519 00:24:26,853 --> 00:24:29,813 Speaker 3: public partnership how it all works. We're joined by New 520 00:24:29,893 --> 00:24:33,053 Speaker 3: Zealand Heral Business Editor at Large, Liam Dan Liam, thanks 521 00:24:33,093 --> 00:24:34,093 Speaker 3: very much for jumping in. 522 00:24:34,173 --> 00:24:38,693 Speaker 2: No worries, Liam, How do private public partnerships differ from 523 00:24:38,733 --> 00:24:42,813 Speaker 2: just contracting a company to build your piece of infrastructure. 524 00:24:43,173 --> 00:24:46,893 Speaker 17: Well, there's an issue about really, and there's a bit 525 00:24:46,893 --> 00:24:49,893 Speaker 17: of contention about whether this is a privatization. So in 526 00:24:49,893 --> 00:24:53,693 Speaker 17: some cases the private company may own it or own 527 00:24:53,773 --> 00:24:55,933 Speaker 17: half of it, or the government will have a partnership 528 00:24:56,173 --> 00:25:01,173 Speaker 17: around ownership, or they'll have contracted that it will return 529 00:25:01,213 --> 00:25:03,493 Speaker 17: to public ownership in fifty years or. 530 00:25:03,493 --> 00:25:04,293 Speaker 2: Something like that. 531 00:25:05,253 --> 00:25:08,213 Speaker 17: Essentially, the risk is being borne by the private company 532 00:25:08,413 --> 00:25:11,173 Speaker 17: and the money is coming up front from the big 533 00:25:11,213 --> 00:25:13,573 Speaker 17: money is coming up from the private upfront from the 534 00:25:13,573 --> 00:25:14,413 Speaker 17: private company. 535 00:25:14,733 --> 00:25:17,533 Speaker 2: So how does the investor make money. 536 00:25:18,013 --> 00:25:22,213 Speaker 17: Well, the investor makes money by charging a fee back 537 00:25:22,213 --> 00:25:25,893 Speaker 17: to the government to use the asset. Right, so I 538 00:25:25,893 --> 00:25:28,373 Speaker 17: guess it's pretty simple. Most people will get it for roads, 539 00:25:28,533 --> 00:25:32,292 Speaker 17: and like the idea of another harbor bridge, Auckland harbor Bridge. 540 00:25:32,653 --> 00:25:35,653 Speaker 17: You can say, well, we're going to get a private 541 00:25:35,693 --> 00:25:37,413 Speaker 17: company in to build this. There's going to be a 542 00:25:37,413 --> 00:25:39,333 Speaker 17: fifty year contract on it. It's going to have tolls 543 00:25:39,373 --> 00:25:45,853 Speaker 17: and service fees. The asset will either be still technically 544 00:25:46,253 --> 00:25:48,613 Speaker 17: a public asset or it'll revert to a public asset 545 00:25:48,653 --> 00:25:52,093 Speaker 17: in fifty years something like that, you know, fairly straightforward. 546 00:25:52,133 --> 00:25:56,093 Speaker 17: It gets a bit more contentious around hospitals, schools, that 547 00:25:56,133 --> 00:26:00,173 Speaker 17: sort of thing, but essentially, you know, you could still say, 548 00:26:00,333 --> 00:26:03,773 Speaker 17: you know, a government is paying as they go for 549 00:26:03,813 --> 00:26:09,453 Speaker 17: the healthcare and for the contract to the hospital, so they. 550 00:26:09,373 --> 00:26:10,373 Speaker 12: Are you know. 551 00:26:10,573 --> 00:26:13,733 Speaker 17: It's sort of like, you know, difference between buying a 552 00:26:13,773 --> 00:26:16,052 Speaker 17: car up front. It's kind of cheaper to buy a 553 00:26:16,053 --> 00:26:18,653 Speaker 17: car up front, right if you've got cash, But if 554 00:26:18,653 --> 00:26:21,133 Speaker 17: you need to you don't have cash, and this government 555 00:26:21,213 --> 00:26:24,893 Speaker 17: doesn't have cash, then then you can go go see 556 00:26:24,893 --> 00:26:27,493 Speaker 17: a dealer and pay a little bit every week for. 557 00:26:27,453 --> 00:26:31,213 Speaker 2: The next so it's essentially a higher purchase. 558 00:26:31,293 --> 00:26:35,053 Speaker 17: Yeah, yeah, it is sort of. There are some other 559 00:26:35,413 --> 00:26:40,293 Speaker 17: other factors in there. I mean, you know, weirdly, you know, 560 00:26:40,493 --> 00:26:45,453 Speaker 17: critics will say governments can borrow more cheaply than private 561 00:26:45,573 --> 00:26:48,493 Speaker 17: the private sector, so it actually maybe puts more cost 562 00:26:48,613 --> 00:26:52,173 Speaker 17: into the project when you get the private sector to 563 00:26:53,293 --> 00:26:56,973 Speaker 17: fund it. But then there's a lot of skepticism, the 564 00:26:57,093 --> 00:27:00,453 Speaker 17: skepticism in this government and on the right generally. And 565 00:27:01,093 --> 00:27:03,893 Speaker 17: you know, you can find plenty of examples in history 566 00:27:04,173 --> 00:27:09,013 Speaker 17: of governments not doing a great job and of building assets, 567 00:27:09,013 --> 00:27:12,973 Speaker 17: and of massive cost overruns and things not getting finished 568 00:27:13,133 --> 00:27:13,533 Speaker 17: on time. 569 00:27:13,573 --> 00:27:16,973 Speaker 2: And so essentially, because it's the company's bottom line, they 570 00:27:17,013 --> 00:27:18,893 Speaker 2: have to make money, they'll do it efficiently. 571 00:27:19,053 --> 00:27:21,573 Speaker 17: Yeah, and it costs them if they the cost if 572 00:27:21,573 --> 00:27:26,853 Speaker 17: it overruns or you know, it isn't finished on time, 573 00:27:27,533 --> 00:27:29,813 Speaker 17: that's borne by the private company. So you're out, you're 574 00:27:30,173 --> 00:27:32,453 Speaker 17: outsourcing some risk away from the government. 575 00:27:33,173 --> 00:27:35,893 Speaker 3: We've been pretty keen on these PPPs as a country 576 00:27:35,893 --> 00:27:38,493 Speaker 3: for some time, or our governments have Are we unique 577 00:27:38,533 --> 00:27:41,213 Speaker 3: in that or is this quite a common theme in 578 00:27:41,213 --> 00:27:44,133 Speaker 3: other Western countries as well to try and form these 579 00:27:44,213 --> 00:27:45,533 Speaker 3: private public partnerships. 580 00:27:45,773 --> 00:27:49,933 Speaker 17: Yeah, they're probably used more extensively around the world. In 581 00:27:49,973 --> 00:27:54,213 Speaker 17: the UK, for example, they've used them for big infrastructure 582 00:27:54,773 --> 00:27:59,373 Speaker 17: projects like you know, revitalizing their underground. Canada I think 583 00:27:59,413 --> 00:28:03,613 Speaker 17: actually does have a lot of PPPs around hospitals. I know, 584 00:28:04,173 --> 00:28:07,253 Speaker 17: you know, I think you know at the moment we've 585 00:28:07,293 --> 00:28:09,253 Speaker 17: got to bipartisan agreement and you can see labors on 586 00:28:09,333 --> 00:28:12,413 Speaker 17: board with big roads, bridges, all that sort of stuff, 587 00:28:12,693 --> 00:28:15,893 Speaker 17: but they draw the line at the hospitals and schools, right. 588 00:28:16,453 --> 00:28:18,333 Speaker 2: So, because you could have a situation because some people 589 00:28:18,453 --> 00:28:21,173 Speaker 2: might not like a prison being run prisons the other ye. 590 00:28:21,613 --> 00:28:24,493 Speaker 2: But if it's just around the infrastructure, the building of 591 00:28:24,533 --> 00:28:27,853 Speaker 2: the actual building, but not the running of it, is 592 00:28:27,933 --> 00:28:31,653 Speaker 2: that still of interest to companies to invest. 593 00:28:31,293 --> 00:28:34,173 Speaker 17: In, Well, they've got to get a return, right, So 594 00:28:34,173 --> 00:28:37,253 Speaker 17: they have to get there's got to be a contract 595 00:28:37,253 --> 00:28:39,533 Speaker 17: where there's money coming back to that company over a 596 00:28:39,533 --> 00:28:42,013 Speaker 17: period of time to make the return. So I guess 597 00:28:42,013 --> 00:28:45,293 Speaker 17: it doesn't necessarily have to involve running the prison, but 598 00:28:45,373 --> 00:28:47,773 Speaker 17: there is going to be fees to pay on the prison, 599 00:28:48,053 --> 00:28:50,253 Speaker 17: and so it's a cost. It's still a cost of taxpayers. 600 00:28:50,253 --> 00:28:53,373 Speaker 17: It's just spreading the cost over time, spreading the risk, 601 00:28:54,613 --> 00:28:58,493 Speaker 17: or you know, outsourcing the risk. Critics might say, look 602 00:28:58,573 --> 00:29:01,493 Speaker 17: over time, like that car at the car dealers, you'll 603 00:29:01,493 --> 00:29:05,413 Speaker 17: have paid a lot more for the asset. But again 604 00:29:05,453 --> 00:29:07,333 Speaker 17: that'll come back to that debate about whether you think 605 00:29:07,933 --> 00:29:11,253 Speaker 17: government are just absolutely terrible at building this stuff and 606 00:29:11,293 --> 00:29:15,213 Speaker 17: that they're just you know, because if we're borrowing masses more, 607 00:29:15,293 --> 00:29:17,893 Speaker 17: well maybe it is at a lower interest rate, but 608 00:29:17,933 --> 00:29:20,693 Speaker 17: if we don't get the things built properly, that that's 609 00:29:20,893 --> 00:29:24,573 Speaker 17: all going on the crown accounts and stuffing our box. 610 00:29:24,853 --> 00:29:28,053 Speaker 2: So just to make it clear, how would you envision 611 00:29:28,213 --> 00:29:32,253 Speaker 2: say a second harbor crossing working. Then well, how much 612 00:29:32,333 --> 00:29:35,813 Speaker 2: would the would the foreign investors put all the money 613 00:29:35,813 --> 00:29:37,893 Speaker 2: in and then we pay it all back, or we 614 00:29:37,933 --> 00:29:41,453 Speaker 2: go some from the government, some from the investor, and 615 00:29:41,453 --> 00:29:42,893 Speaker 2: then how do they make their money back? 616 00:29:43,453 --> 00:29:45,493 Speaker 17: All those models could be the case. You could have 617 00:29:45,493 --> 00:29:47,733 Speaker 17: a partnership where the government stumps up half in the 618 00:29:48,853 --> 00:29:50,973 Speaker 17: private you know, you create an entity and it might 619 00:29:51,013 --> 00:29:54,253 Speaker 17: be fifty percent owned by the government and fifty percent 620 00:29:54,613 --> 00:29:58,693 Speaker 17: owned by the private sector and they work together. Or 621 00:29:58,733 --> 00:30:01,453 Speaker 17: you go, no, no, we're going the full private model 622 00:30:01,533 --> 00:30:04,933 Speaker 17: and pretty much say go to town, build as a 623 00:30:04,973 --> 00:30:07,693 Speaker 17: harbor bridge and we'll pay you tolls. And a service 624 00:30:07,693 --> 00:30:11,493 Speaker 17: fee for the next thirty fifty years. Hopefully they would 625 00:30:11,493 --> 00:30:15,933 Speaker 17: build it efficiently and look, that would be easier because 626 00:30:15,933 --> 00:30:18,333 Speaker 17: it would be I think the government, you know, with 627 00:30:18,453 --> 00:30:22,173 Speaker 17: the toll is a user pays aspect. You know, a hospital, 628 00:30:22,293 --> 00:30:25,933 Speaker 17: there's always going to be a fear or some political 629 00:30:25,973 --> 00:30:28,693 Speaker 17: pushback around the user pays aspect of it. People want 630 00:30:29,213 --> 00:30:33,373 Speaker 17: a public health service, but then you know, governments could 631 00:30:33,413 --> 00:30:36,973 Speaker 17: choose to fund the most gold standard free public health 632 00:30:37,013 --> 00:30:39,453 Speaker 17: service and still use a PPP. They could just be 633 00:30:39,733 --> 00:30:41,853 Speaker 17: agreeing to pay the money to that. 634 00:30:42,813 --> 00:30:45,653 Speaker 2: And if they have their regulations in place that you 635 00:30:45,653 --> 00:30:48,173 Speaker 2: know what we expect and what has to be delivered, 636 00:30:48,173 --> 00:30:51,453 Speaker 2: and we're all happy with that, then you could argue 637 00:30:51,493 --> 00:30:53,533 Speaker 2: that's not too much of a problem. So is there 638 00:30:53,533 --> 00:30:55,573 Speaker 2: any interest so far, anyone putting up their hands and 639 00:30:55,613 --> 00:30:56,933 Speaker 2: say they want to do it? 640 00:30:56,973 --> 00:30:59,973 Speaker 17: From the summit, I think we heard from an Italian 641 00:31:00,013 --> 00:31:04,613 Speaker 17: company that was talking about that extension to the Northern Expressway, 642 00:31:06,053 --> 00:31:10,533 Speaker 17: so that's probably a good one. That's that's the one 643 00:31:10,533 --> 00:31:12,533 Speaker 17: that's on the table. So this this summit, the issue 644 00:31:12,613 --> 00:31:15,373 Speaker 17: is that we haven't actually got that many PPPs ready 645 00:31:15,373 --> 00:31:19,893 Speaker 17: to go, so it's it's a starting point. But you know, 646 00:31:19,933 --> 00:31:24,373 Speaker 17: I think what the government really needs is one that's 647 00:31:24,853 --> 00:31:27,133 Speaker 17: just underway and working so that people can see the 648 00:31:27,173 --> 00:31:30,093 Speaker 17: model and that other companies can see that that could work. 649 00:31:30,133 --> 00:31:32,533 Speaker 17: But yeah, it's going to be a bit more debate 650 00:31:32,693 --> 00:31:37,373 Speaker 17: around around whether we go to hospitals and schools and prisons. 651 00:31:37,413 --> 00:31:41,813 Speaker 2: I think. So if a company invested a billion dollars, 652 00:31:42,853 --> 00:31:45,093 Speaker 2: how much return would they want to see over the 653 00:31:45,493 --> 00:31:47,813 Speaker 2: thirty fifty years. It's a good question. 654 00:31:47,893 --> 00:31:50,613 Speaker 17: It's got to be more than putting in the bank, right, 655 00:31:50,653 --> 00:31:54,533 Speaker 17: otherwise you don't bother so that would be I'm sort 656 00:31:54,573 --> 00:31:57,293 Speaker 17: of guessing a little bit, but you'd want a return 657 00:31:57,333 --> 00:32:00,053 Speaker 17: of you know, five ten percent. It's got to be 658 00:32:00,053 --> 00:32:04,253 Speaker 17: better than bonds, which is the equivalent of putting money 659 00:32:04,253 --> 00:32:08,533 Speaker 17: in the bank. It should be a rout to the 660 00:32:08,693 --> 00:32:13,333 Speaker 17: low risk, stable investment. So it appeals to big investment 661 00:32:13,373 --> 00:32:15,813 Speaker 17: funds around the world. So weirdly, you know, in New 662 00:32:15,893 --> 00:32:18,733 Speaker 17: Zealand our own super fund, our acc fund, that's the 663 00:32:18,773 --> 00:32:22,013 Speaker 17: sort of thing they can get involved in because it 664 00:32:22,053 --> 00:32:24,173 Speaker 17: provides a stable return. So if you can get a 665 00:32:24,213 --> 00:32:26,653 Speaker 17: return of seven or eight percent or something like that, 666 00:32:26,653 --> 00:32:28,573 Speaker 17: there would be a solid return. If it was over 667 00:32:28,613 --> 00:32:29,533 Speaker 17: thirty years. 668 00:32:29,373 --> 00:32:31,573 Speaker 3: And obviously tolling. Just to bring it back to the tolling, 669 00:32:31,653 --> 00:32:33,653 Speaker 3: that is an added sweetener. If someone's going to invest 670 00:32:33,693 --> 00:32:35,573 Speaker 3: a lot of money and infrastructure and that is part 671 00:32:35,613 --> 00:32:38,733 Speaker 3: of the equation, then that hopefully might make it easy 672 00:32:38,813 --> 00:32:39,613 Speaker 3: to get across the line. 673 00:32:39,813 --> 00:32:41,533 Speaker 17: Governments can still make a choice. They can still say 674 00:32:41,533 --> 00:32:42,973 Speaker 17: we're going to make this free, but we're going to 675 00:32:43,573 --> 00:32:46,333 Speaker 17: have to pay that difference to the private company to 676 00:32:46,693 --> 00:32:48,253 Speaker 17: ensure that the contract works for them. 677 00:32:48,373 --> 00:32:53,013 Speaker 3: Either way, we pay, yeah, exactly eventually, eventually, Liam, very 678 00:32:53,133 --> 00:32:55,733 Speaker 3: very interesting, Thanks very much for coming and having a 679 00:32:55,773 --> 00:32:56,213 Speaker 3: chat with us. 680 00:32:56,293 --> 00:32:57,093 Speaker 2: We'll catch again soon. 681 00:32:57,453 --> 00:33:01,013 Speaker 3: That is New Zealand Herald Business Editor at large, Liam Dan. 682 00:33:01,133 --> 00:33:03,373 Speaker 2: You're listening to news Talks There, be good afternoon. 683 00:33:04,133 --> 00:33:08,013 Speaker 1: Your new home of afternoon Talk Matt and Taylor afternoons 684 00:33:08,413 --> 00:33:12,173 Speaker 1: the Volvo XC ninety turn every journey into something special. 685 00:33:12,253 --> 00:33:15,413 Speaker 5: Call eight hundred eighty News Talk said. 686 00:33:15,173 --> 00:33:16,773 Speaker 2: Be good afternoon. 687 00:33:16,813 --> 00:33:19,333 Speaker 3: Now, we had been talking about toll roads and is 688 00:33:19,373 --> 00:33:21,533 Speaker 3: that a fear way to pay for some of the infrastructure. 689 00:33:21,533 --> 00:33:24,973 Speaker 3: We needed this text here, This is anti toll road 690 00:33:25,053 --> 00:33:28,053 Speaker 3: on nineteen nine two toll theft. 691 00:33:28,933 --> 00:33:29,173 Speaker 5: Is it? 692 00:33:29,333 --> 00:33:32,133 Speaker 2: That's it?

Yep? 702 00:33:55,773 --> 00:33:59,373 Speaker 3: And what was the answer? It was a shellings and 703 00:33:59,493 --> 00:34:02,173 Speaker 3: six mate. Yeah, two shillings and six pence. But somewhere 704 00:34:02,173 --> 00:34:04,733 Speaker 3: along the line someone mentioned the floor, and that has 705 00:34:05,533 --> 00:34:06,413 Speaker 3: upset a lot of people. 706 00:34:06,533 --> 00:34:12,772 Speaker 2: Yeah, Kevin, you're going to sit up straight on this, Okay. 707 00:34:13,373 --> 00:34:19,493 Speaker 7: You got stories. So I remember the old the old 708 00:34:19,533 --> 00:34:23,173 Speaker 7: fashioned money very well. There was a shilling which we 709 00:34:23,253 --> 00:34:27,733 Speaker 7: had twelve pennies in it, okay, And they were pennies 710 00:34:28,773 --> 00:34:32,573 Speaker 7: were brown, little, were brown, quite big, about an inch 711 00:34:32,613 --> 00:34:37,013 Speaker 7: across coins. And there were there were half pennies that 712 00:34:37,133 --> 00:34:40,253 Speaker 7: were about half that size, and they were made out 713 00:34:40,253 --> 00:34:42,813 Speaker 7: of copper as well. And then there was this what 714 00:34:43,013 --> 00:34:48,213 Speaker 7: the silver which was the tens, the the twenty pence 715 00:34:48,293 --> 00:34:52,573 Speaker 7: piece which was called the shilling, and then the two 716 00:34:52,653 --> 00:34:57,573 Speaker 7: shillings was the florin, and then two and sixpence was 717 00:34:57,613 --> 00:35:02,093 Speaker 7: the half crown. And on the ar occasion, for example, 718 00:35:02,173 --> 00:35:07,253 Speaker 7: they put a special crown out which was five shillings 719 00:35:07,773 --> 00:35:09,853 Speaker 7: on special. I don't know whether they did it, but 720 00:35:09,933 --> 00:35:13,533 Speaker 7: maybe when Sir Edmund Hillary climbed Everest they would have 721 00:35:13,573 --> 00:35:16,533 Speaker 7: put out a crown to commemorate it, you know. 722 00:35:16,653 --> 00:35:19,333 Speaker 2: That's yeah right, So Kevin, two and sex was two 723 00:35:19,373 --> 00:35:20,573 Speaker 2: and six just one coin. 724 00:35:20,453 --> 00:35:24,533 Speaker 7: Then two and six was one call ah. 725 00:35:24,013 --> 00:35:26,533 Speaker 2: That's interesting, yeah, right, that makes sense. 726 00:35:26,573 --> 00:35:26,853 Speaker 18: It was. 727 00:35:27,013 --> 00:35:31,053 Speaker 2: It was called a half crown, a half crown, and. 728 00:35:31,333 --> 00:35:34,613 Speaker 7: A crowd had a crown was five shillings. And occasionally, 729 00:35:34,693 --> 00:35:38,453 Speaker 7: as I say, they'd bring out they'd strike a special 730 00:35:38,573 --> 00:35:40,573 Speaker 7: crown for a special events. 731 00:35:40,813 --> 00:35:43,893 Speaker 2: Yeah cool. Hey, so I think when was that was 732 00:35:44,093 --> 00:35:49,213 Speaker 2: nineteen sixty seven? I believe this decimal currency day. So 733 00:35:49,253 --> 00:35:51,133 Speaker 2: what system when you when you when you jumped over 734 00:35:51,173 --> 00:35:53,893 Speaker 2: to the decimal system, was that better or did you 735 00:35:53,933 --> 00:35:57,133 Speaker 2: prefer the florins and the shillings and the crowns. 736 00:35:58,213 --> 00:36:00,652 Speaker 7: It's not a no there's no question about it. A 737 00:36:00,653 --> 00:36:05,613 Speaker 7: decimal system is a damn site easier than but you 738 00:36:05,653 --> 00:36:10,773 Speaker 7: had you had the the the the score rule. So 739 00:36:10,853 --> 00:36:15,613 Speaker 7: if you bought twenty of something that cost so many shillings, 740 00:36:15,653 --> 00:36:22,013 Speaker 7: maybe you cost you bought twenty three shilling I don't 741 00:36:22,053 --> 00:36:26,573 Speaker 7: know ice streams or something. You called the shillings pounds. 742 00:36:26,613 --> 00:36:30,533 Speaker 7: So if you bought twenty three shilling things, it cost 743 00:36:30,613 --> 00:36:34,973 Speaker 7: you three pounds. And then there was the there was 744 00:36:35,013 --> 00:36:38,613 Speaker 7: the what was the shilling rule? Was it the it 745 00:36:38,653 --> 00:36:40,773 Speaker 7: was the other one that if you bought a dozen 746 00:36:40,973 --> 00:36:45,413 Speaker 7: a dozen rules, if you bought a dozen things, that 747 00:36:45,493 --> 00:36:49,573 Speaker 7: it say happens?

Yeah, 749 00:36:54,693 --> 00:36:57,213 Speaker 2: I see what you mean, though, Keiven. The decimal system 750 00:36:57,293 --> 00:37:00,333 Speaker 2: is far easy. You got a crown, you got a shilling, half. 751 00:37:00,133 --> 00:37:03,533 Speaker 3: Crown, pence, half penny. I forgot about the half penny. 752 00:37:03,933 --> 00:37:05,692 Speaker 3: It must have been crazy though. 753 00:37:05,813 --> 00:37:07,733 Speaker 2: Yeah. On the tenth of July. I've just seen it 754 00:37:07,773 --> 00:37:10,693 Speaker 2: here in nineteen sixty seven when they swapped over, so 755 00:37:10,773 --> 00:37:14,453 Speaker 2: suddenly your money systems changed. Yeah, I reckon people to 756 00:37:14,493 --> 00:37:15,333 Speaker 2: struggle here. 757 00:37:15,413 --> 00:37:17,253 Speaker 3: Yeah, if you get used to that sort of system, 758 00:37:17,253 --> 00:37:20,333 Speaker 3: and then you've got the decimal system coming in. But Kevin, 759 00:37:20,373 --> 00:37:23,373 Speaker 3: thank you very much for clearing all that up. Quick 760 00:37:23,413 --> 00:37:26,733 Speaker 3: couple of texts.

The rucks or the road 763 00:37:32,573 --> 00:37:35,413 Speaker 3: user charges a big no no. So many unregistered and 764 00:37:35,493 --> 00:37:39,133 Speaker 3: unwarranted cars on roads already, same abusers won't pay the 765 00:37:39,213 --> 00:37:41,733 Speaker 3: rucks and will then escape the fuel tax. And what 766 00:37:41,853 --> 00:37:45,453 Speaker 3: about charging tourists mileage on rental cars unlimited mileages on 767 00:37:45,613 --> 00:37:48,853 Speaker 3: every overseas rental line have hired over the last thirty years. 768 00:37:49,013 --> 00:37:51,933 Speaker 3: It will turn tourists off from MACA. Toll roads is 769 00:37:51,973 --> 00:37:52,252 Speaker 3: the way. 770 00:37:52,493 --> 00:37:55,053 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, you can't hide from a toll road. 771 00:37:55,413 --> 00:37:57,013 Speaker 2: If you want to get the money off people, then 772 00:37:57,213 --> 00:37:59,773 Speaker 2: then the toll road will do it.

Jan Good afternoon to you. 785 00:38:39,013 --> 00:38:40,772 Speaker 3: We've got a couple of minutes before the news. 786 00:38:40,773 --> 00:38:42,933 Speaker 2: How are you thank new items? 787 00:38:43,173 --> 00:38:47,692 Speaker 19: Okay? The Harbor Bridge tolls were when it went into 788 00:38:47,813 --> 00:38:52,253 Speaker 19: decimal currency were twenty cents. When the nineteen eighty by 789 00:38:52,333 --> 00:38:56,013 Speaker 19: election came up and Don Brash was standing for National 790 00:38:56,373 --> 00:38:59,692 Speaker 19: and Male Dooon didn't like Don Brash.

Now what I am saying about 794 00:39:11,213 --> 00:39:13,733 Speaker 19: a harbor crossing and I think we should take notice 795 00:39:13,773 --> 00:39:17,813 Speaker 19: of how Sydney has built their tunnels. They've done their 796 00:39:17,893 --> 00:39:22,493 Speaker 19: privatized the tunnely the second tunnel. We could put in 797 00:39:22,533 --> 00:39:25,333 Speaker 19: as many crossings as we like. That we have got 798 00:39:25,653 --> 00:39:28,973 Speaker 19: the on remps. The problem, not the bridge the on 799 00:39:29,213 --> 00:39:32,293 Speaker 19: remps there on ramps are queuing up all the time 800 00:39:32,373 --> 00:39:34,813 Speaker 19: for thirty or forty minutes to get onto the Harbor Bridge. 801 00:39:35,133 --> 00:39:38,133 Speaker 19: And there are two hundred thousand cars a day going 802 00:39:38,133 --> 00:39:41,053 Speaker 19: over the Harbor Bridge. But how can we put another 803 00:39:41,133 --> 00:39:43,093 Speaker 19: crossing in without on rems? 804 00:39:43,173 --> 00:39:45,013 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, thank you for you cool. We're going to 805 00:39:45,413 --> 00:39:47,893 Speaker 2: have to work out all that infrastructure. But as PPPs 806 00:39:47,973 --> 00:39:51,613 Speaker 2: the answer to do that, Yeah, and tolling, because yeah, 807 00:39:51,653 --> 00:39:54,613 Speaker 2: you've got to get people on to the new crossing 808 00:39:54,693 --> 00:39:57,333 Speaker 2: or into the new crossing exactly.

Then they 816 00:40:15,973 --> 00:40:18,533 Speaker 3: bought in the shoots to throw the coin into, but 817 00:40:18,613 --> 00:40:20,652 Speaker 3: you still had the option to stop. They canned it 818 00:40:20,693 --> 00:40:22,053 Speaker 3: as it created big delays. 819 00:40:22,093 --> 00:40:24,253 Speaker 2: There you go, you go, and black Rock will end 820 00:40:24,293 --> 00:40:26,733 Speaker 2: up owning New Zealand.

They just dump 859 00:42:02,133 --> 00:42:03,773 Speaker 2: it there, and they kind of in their hearts think 860 00:42:03,813 --> 00:42:06,813 Speaker 2: that maybe I'm doing something good potentially because I'm not 861 00:42:06,893 --> 00:42:08,652 Speaker 2: taking it straight to the dump or what you doing 862 00:42:08,733 --> 00:42:11,253 Speaker 2: is just unloading your problem onto someone else.

Her name is Galina Netscheyeva. Now, 869 00:42:26,813 --> 00:42:29,533 Speaker 3: she says she's been making monthly donations to the Glen 870 00:42:29,573 --> 00:42:33,733 Speaker 3: in a Salvation Army family store, but in February she 871 00:42:33,813 --> 00:42:36,133 Speaker 3: left a box of what she said was glass wear 872 00:42:36,213 --> 00:42:38,772 Speaker 3: and closes and a shopping bag on a ledge next 873 00:42:38,813 --> 00:42:39,893 Speaker 3: to the store entrance. 874 00:42:40,253 --> 00:42:42,973 Speaker 2: What she said was out of the way of the entrance, I. 875 00:42:42,973 --> 00:42:45,493 Speaker 3: Quote from her, it was not dumped, it wasn't in 876 00:42:45,493 --> 00:42:49,213 Speaker 3: the walking area, and it wasn't a mess chumper chumper 877 00:42:49,373 --> 00:42:52,173 Speaker 3: because however, in March she received a letter from the 878 00:42:52,213 --> 00:42:55,093 Speaker 3: Auckland Council saying that leaving the bag outside the store 879 00:42:55,413 --> 00:42:59,172 Speaker 3: constituted littering and after an investigation she could receive an 880 00:42:59,173 --> 00:43:01,133 Speaker 3: instant four hundred dollars fine. 881 00:43:01,613 --> 00:43:04,013 Speaker 2: So the letter showed the CCTV. 882 00:43:03,333 --> 00:43:05,653 Speaker 3: Footage that the council had of her being a chumper 883 00:43:05,653 --> 00:43:10,173 Speaker 3: and dumping this stuff outside the Salvation me outside of ours. 884 00:43:11,333 --> 00:43:15,373 Speaker 3: So Auckland Council Away Solutions general manager Justine Haves says 885 00:43:15,493 --> 00:43:17,933 Speaker 3: leaving donations outside of op shops out of ours was 886 00:43:17,973 --> 00:43:20,853 Speaker 3: a massive problem. We know that she sees I quote. 887 00:43:20,893 --> 00:43:23,293 Speaker 3: Not all items are accepted by shops. The bags will 888 00:43:23,293 --> 00:43:26,293 Speaker 3: often be broken into some items, taken other items are 889 00:43:26,293 --> 00:43:29,252 Speaker 3: straw and across the footpath, creating their hazard and making 890 00:43:29,253 --> 00:43:32,413 Speaker 3: them unfit for sale, and there are health and safety issues. 891 00:43:32,213 --> 00:43:35,213 Speaker 2: Dirty chumper look to be fair. I don't know the 892 00:43:35,253 --> 00:43:37,653 Speaker 2: full details around the story. There's a few details there. 893 00:43:37,813 --> 00:43:41,093 Speaker 2: It does sound plausible that she just didn't understand and 894 00:43:41,173 --> 00:43:43,013 Speaker 2: she's been donating a lot and she thought I'll just 895 00:43:43,013 --> 00:43:46,333 Speaker 2: don't in the weekend. But you gotta you've got a 896 00:43:46,453 --> 00:43:51,692 Speaker 2: chomp down on chumpers, because chumpers charity dumpers. You know, 897 00:43:51,893 --> 00:43:53,613 Speaker 2: some of them mean well, but many of them are 898 00:43:53,613 --> 00:43:54,693 Speaker 2: just trying to get rid of the rubbis out of 899 00:43:54,733 --> 00:43:55,733 Speaker 2: the house. As I've said before. 900 00:43:55,813 --> 00:43:57,813 Speaker 3: Absolutely, and so I'd love to hear from people that 901 00:43:57,853 --> 00:43:59,573 Speaker 3: have worked in charity shops. 902 00:44:00,773 --> 00:44:02,533 Speaker 2: What is the worst stuff you get dumped off? What 903 00:44:02,933 --> 00:44:04,973 Speaker 2: is the stuff you don't need? What is the stuff 904 00:44:05,093 --> 00:44:09,253 Speaker 2: you do need? And when should people dump a dump it? 905 00:44:10,413 --> 00:44:12,773 Speaker 2: When should people donate it? If you give it in 906 00:44:12,813 --> 00:44:15,453 Speaker 2: the weekend, when if you if you donate it in 907 00:44:15,493 --> 00:44:18,773 Speaker 2: the weekend when they're not there, that's dumping it. Absolutely, 908 00:44:18,853 --> 00:44:21,213 Speaker 2: it's not donating, You're not You're not donating, you're dumping. 909 00:44:21,533 --> 00:44:23,252 Speaker 2: But if you do it in the week when they're there, 910 00:44:24,293 --> 00:44:26,893 Speaker 2: you're you're donating, but there's a really good chance that 911 00:44:26,933 --> 00:44:28,813 Speaker 2: they want to don't want to take ninety percent of 912 00:44:28,853 --> 00:44:31,093 Speaker 2: your crap because nothing they could deal with it. But 913 00:44:30,853 --> 00:44:33,653 Speaker 2: the but the most horrible thing is imagining someone turning 914 00:44:33,733 --> 00:44:35,933 Speaker 2: up to work at their charity shop and then they've 915 00:44:35,973 --> 00:44:39,133 Speaker 2: just got to deal with your refuse. You're turning a 916 00:44:39,213 --> 00:44:41,652 Speaker 2: charity shop into a refuse transfer center. Yep. 917 00:44:41,853 --> 00:44:43,613 Speaker 3: And can I just add you can't just turn up 918 00:44:43,653 --> 00:44:45,973 Speaker 3: with a bag of clothes when they're open and you 919 00:44:46,013 --> 00:44:47,813 Speaker 3: put the bag down, you give them a wave and 920 00:44:47,853 --> 00:44:49,733 Speaker 3: say that's for you, see you later. You've got to 921 00:44:49,773 --> 00:44:51,853 Speaker 3: wait for the staff memer to come out, open up 922 00:44:51,893 --> 00:44:54,773 Speaker 3: the back and see if they want your your rags. 923 00:44:55,093 --> 00:44:57,773 Speaker 3: And I'm not ashamed to admit I've taken clothes to 924 00:44:57,773 --> 00:45:00,893 Speaker 3: the Salvation Army before and they've turned their nose. 925 00:45:00,813 --> 00:45:02,172 Speaker 2: Up at some of the clothes that I offered them. 926 00:45:02,253 --> 00:45:05,133 Speaker 2: You weren't bringing in your sealed undies with you? Not 927 00:45:05,213 --> 00:45:07,973 Speaker 2: that a decent wash. I'm always impressed by people that 928 00:45:07,973 --> 00:45:11,573 Speaker 2: buy to wear from from op shops.

Got 994 00:48:21,533 --> 00:48:27,813 Speaker 15: the regular dumping stuff outside out of ours and general 995 00:48:27,893 --> 00:48:29,652 Speaker 15: when people are doing it out of ours, I think 996 00:48:29,653 --> 00:48:32,333 Speaker 15: they just know that they shouldn't be donating it. It's 997 00:48:32,413 --> 00:48:37,093 Speaker 15: not donatable stuff. And then you get the sneaky ones 998 00:48:37,093 --> 00:48:42,053 Speaker 15: that come in with things bagged up and give you 999 00:48:42,053 --> 00:48:44,773 Speaker 15: a lovely smile, and then you open the bag up 1000 00:48:44,773 --> 00:48:49,732 Speaker 15: after the mess full of stained discussing bed linen or 1001 00:48:50,573 --> 00:48:57,053 Speaker 15: broken things. You know, it's it's just rude behavior. And 1002 00:48:57,093 --> 00:49:01,933 Speaker 15: what I think I'd like to convey today is first up, shockingly, 1003 00:49:02,253 --> 00:49:05,573 Speaker 15: the charity I'm working with, they've spend over a million 1004 00:49:05,613 --> 00:49:09,413 Speaker 15: dollars a year getting rid of the rough for them stumps. 1005 00:49:09,773 --> 00:49:14,212 Speaker 2: Wow, that's unreal. So a charity shop which is trying 1006 00:49:14,213 --> 00:49:17,853 Speaker 2: to do good is having to basically spend a million 1007 00:49:17,853 --> 00:49:22,373 Speaker 2: dollars a year being a refuse transfer center for people 1008 00:49:22,413 --> 00:49:23,973 Speaker 2: pretending to donate a nutshell. 1009 00:49:24,693 --> 00:49:28,652 Speaker 15: That's sort of a nutshell because they're too lazy or 1010 00:49:28,773 --> 00:49:32,693 Speaker 15: too mean to go to the refuse transfer station proper 1011 00:49:33,373 --> 00:49:34,693 Speaker 15: and do it themselves. 1012 00:49:35,013 --> 00:49:38,213 Speaker 2: That's incredibly gutting to hear. Imagine how far that million 1013 00:49:38,253 --> 00:49:39,093 Speaker 2: dollars would go. 1014 00:49:40,973 --> 00:49:43,772 Speaker 15: Exactly. And as a rule of some if I could 1015 00:49:43,813 --> 00:49:49,493 Speaker 15: convey to your listeners today, if you wouldn't be comfortable 1016 00:49:50,253 --> 00:49:54,293 Speaker 15: handing on that item to a friend or family member, 1017 00:49:54,573 --> 00:49:56,453 Speaker 15: then it shouldn't go to the charity shop. 1018 00:49:56,773 --> 00:50:00,413 Speaker 2: Yeah. So the charity shops that you've worked in, are 1019 00:50:00,453 --> 00:50:04,692 Speaker 2: they across the border. We're talking clothes, you know, crockery, 1020 00:50:05,373 --> 00:50:09,333 Speaker 2: box everything, everything. Yeah, yeah, So what is the stuff 1021 00:50:09,373 --> 00:50:11,413 Speaker 2: you need the most of and what is the stuff 1022 00:50:11,493 --> 00:50:12,652 Speaker 2: you need the least of? 1023 00:50:14,253 --> 00:50:17,813 Speaker 15: You know what common waves? It does come in waves, 1024 00:50:18,013 --> 00:50:26,213 Speaker 15: but we find nice reusable clothes are always popular. Ye, 1025 00:50:26,613 --> 00:50:29,773 Speaker 15: and furniture items are very popular. 1026 00:50:30,693 --> 00:50:33,333 Speaker 2: So in terms of the workload and sorry no you go, 1027 00:50:35,293 --> 00:50:36,013 Speaker 2: oh no, it's. 1028 00:50:35,813 --> 00:50:39,253 Speaker 15: Just whatever comes in that is sailable really, as long 1029 00:50:39,253 --> 00:50:43,013 Speaker 15: as it's in good condition, it's clean, and it's a 1030 00:50:43,093 --> 00:50:44,813 Speaker 15: saleable item. 1031 00:50:44,893 --> 00:50:47,733 Speaker 3: Would something like glass wear be turned away on a 1032 00:50:47,773 --> 00:50:50,253 Speaker 3: fairly regular basis? I imagine you get a truckload of 1033 00:50:50,293 --> 00:50:52,133 Speaker 3: glass wearing, you just wouldn't be able to take it all. 1034 00:50:54,133 --> 00:50:56,973 Speaker 15: Yeah, we tend to get a bit too much of 1035 00:50:57,053 --> 00:51:00,053 Speaker 15: homewares at the moment, but that again, that might in 1036 00:51:00,133 --> 00:51:02,373 Speaker 15: six months time, it might be needed. 1037 00:51:02,453 --> 00:51:06,053 Speaker 2: It's just comes in waves, right, Okay. Would you support 1038 00:51:06,173 --> 00:51:08,293 Speaker 2: the four hundred dollar fine for this woman that's been 1039 00:51:08,573 --> 00:51:15,133 Speaker 2: on CCTV camera making a donation outside of opening hours. 1040 00:51:16,053 --> 00:51:19,853 Speaker 15: It may sound harsh, but I think that she's kind 1041 00:51:19,893 --> 00:51:21,453 Speaker 15: of been used as a precedent. 1042 00:51:21,893 --> 00:51:24,293 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I can kind of see that she might 1043 00:51:24,333 --> 00:51:26,213 Speaker 2: have made a mistake, but there probably needs to be 1044 00:51:26,253 --> 00:51:27,573 Speaker 2: an example made of people. 1045 00:51:27,853 --> 00:51:29,733 Speaker 15: Yeah that's it. 1046 00:51:30,013 --> 00:51:32,853 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, well, thank you so much for your call. 1047 00:51:33,333 --> 00:51:36,093 Speaker 2: I think we can call it Galino's law.

But 1050 00:51:41,733 --> 00:51:43,333 Speaker 3: can I say, there's the reason I asked about the 1051 00:51:43,333 --> 00:51:45,413 Speaker 3: glass were is what she was dropping off was glass 1052 00:51:45,413 --> 00:51:46,013 Speaker 3: wearing clothes? 1053 00:51:46,613 --> 00:51:48,493 Speaker 2: This sounds to me like rubbish. Well at four hundred 1054 00:51:48,533 --> 00:51:50,413 Speaker 2: dollars fine might be a good place to start with 1055 00:51:50,453 --> 00:51:52,733 Speaker 2: this and then we move on to some kind of 1056 00:51:52,733 --> 00:51:58,453 Speaker 2: wider campaign.

But that's 1152 00:57:14,933 --> 00:57:17,853 Speaker 21: what we did, and you don't need to curt a 1153 00:57:17,893 --> 00:57:20,413 Speaker 21: new law because it is dumping. Once you had that 1154 00:57:20,573 --> 00:57:24,333 Speaker 21: adequate signers that says do not leave stuff out here 1155 00:57:24,453 --> 00:57:27,893 Speaker 21: outside of ours, there's no way they can escape from 1156 00:57:27,933 --> 00:57:30,453 Speaker 21: being fined if you can get that number plate off 1157 00:57:30,493 --> 00:57:32,453 Speaker 21: the vehicle that they delivered it in. 1158 00:57:32,933 --> 00:57:36,053 Speaker 2: Yeah, well that's what I mean. This woman that's looking 1159 00:57:36,093 --> 00:57:38,813 Speaker 2: at a forty four hundred dollars fine, that is just 1160 00:57:39,053 --> 00:57:43,213 Speaker 2: under the littering laws and the dumping laws. It's absolutely 1161 00:57:43,253 --> 00:57:45,613 Speaker 2: no difference. As you say, Josh, is just you know, 1162 00:57:45,853 --> 00:57:47,853 Speaker 2: having some rubbish in the middle of the street or 1163 00:57:47,893 --> 00:57:50,173 Speaker 2: putting it in front of a charity shop. If they 1164 00:57:50,173 --> 00:57:53,173 Speaker 2: don't want it, then then it's the same thing. 1165 00:57:53,213 --> 00:57:56,573 Speaker 21: Sorry, Josh, you get you really hope that you know, once, 1166 00:57:56,773 --> 00:58:00,013 Speaker 21: once you learn that lesson once, you don't do it again. 1167 00:58:00,133 --> 00:58:03,453 Speaker 21: But you know, I think the other on the other 1168 00:58:03,533 --> 00:58:05,613 Speaker 21: side of things, the charities don't want to be seen 1169 00:58:05,653 --> 00:58:09,773 Speaker 21: as the bad guy. Like I had to really debate 1170 00:58:09,853 --> 00:58:14,853 Speaker 21: with management to get a sign written that said specifically, 1171 00:58:15,413 --> 00:58:19,413 Speaker 21: if you leave stuff outside of ours, it's equivalent to dumping. 1172 00:58:19,733 --> 00:58:22,533 Speaker 3: Yeah, so you had to argue that, you know, I 1173 00:58:22,573 --> 00:58:25,813 Speaker 3: get charities, absolutely the good guys, and they don't want 1174 00:58:25,853 --> 00:58:27,893 Speaker 3: to do anything to put people off charities, but that 1175 00:58:27,933 --> 00:58:28,413 Speaker 3: would be the. 1176 00:58:28,373 --> 00:58:30,853 Speaker 2: Bare minimum to say, just don't be an ahole. 1177 00:58:32,133 --> 00:58:38,293 Speaker 21: Yeah, And you know, in regards to truck, in regards 1178 00:58:38,293 --> 00:58:45,173 Speaker 21: to declining donations, the charity themselves should reserve the right 1179 00:58:45,293 --> 00:58:47,693 Speaker 21: to say yes or no. And I know some people 1180 00:58:48,213 --> 00:58:52,693 Speaker 21: get kind of annoyed with that, but in reality, like 1181 00:58:53,093 --> 00:58:56,333 Speaker 21: the amount of textiles that go through these places is 1182 00:58:56,573 --> 00:59:01,013 Speaker 21: fricking amazing. The amount of clothing that gets donated that 1183 00:59:01,253 --> 00:59:04,973 Speaker 21: ends up getting dumped at the cost of charity is huge. 1184 00:59:05,053 --> 00:59:11,453 Speaker 21: It's phenomenal, and there's not much else these charities can 1185 00:59:11,493 --> 00:59:15,653 Speaker 21: do because the textiles companies are not taking what they 1186 00:59:15,773 --> 00:59:18,453 Speaker 21: used to do anymore. They used to send it to 1187 00:59:18,493 --> 00:59:21,653 Speaker 21: the islands and stuff they're not doing. They're not doing 1188 00:59:21,733 --> 00:59:25,093 Speaker 21: so much or that anymore. So the access cloning that 1189 00:59:25,333 --> 00:59:29,533 Speaker 21: cannot be resold or used actually gets dumped. And if 1190 00:59:29,533 --> 00:59:34,493 Speaker 21: that's wet outside, it's just, oh my god, it terrible. 1191 00:59:34,733 --> 00:59:37,213 Speaker 2: Well, thanks so much for your insights there, Josh. I'd say, 1192 00:59:37,213 --> 00:59:39,893 Speaker 2: if someone's donating something or bringing it into the store 1193 00:59:39,973 --> 00:59:42,933 Speaker 2: and they get annoyed when the charity shop won't take it. Yeah, 1194 00:59:42,973 --> 00:59:46,493 Speaker 2: they're not donating, they're trying to dump. You know, they're 1195 00:59:46,533 --> 00:59:48,813 Speaker 2: more than a problem for a store that's just trying 1196 00:59:48,853 --> 00:59:51,013 Speaker 2: to do good. Yeah, I mean they can't be forced 1197 00:59:51,013 --> 00:59:53,613 Speaker 2: to take your absolute rubbish. Yeah. 1198 00:59:53,653 --> 00:59:56,733 Speaker 3: Hey, I've got a question for you and everybody listening. 1199 00:59:56,773 --> 00:59:58,333 Speaker 3: And if you think you know the answer nine to 1200 00:59:58,613 --> 01:00:02,013 Speaker 3: ninety two?

Forty million? 1253 01:02:27,733 --> 01:02:28,093 Speaker 4: About it? 1254 01:02:29,213 --> 01:02:32,813 Speaker 3: More right, there's a couple of guesses coming through here. 1255 01:02:32,853 --> 01:02:36,253 Speaker 3: Eleven point two million, very specific, but way more than that. Hi, 1256 01:02:36,373 --> 01:02:39,773 Speaker 3: Tony here, the Salvation Army around two hundred and thirty 1257 01:02:39,893 --> 01:02:42,613 Speaker 3: nine million, two hundred and fifty four thousand a year. 1258 01:02:43,773 --> 01:02:46,653 Speaker 2: Well, we are a little bit of my Tony specific 1259 01:02:47,933 --> 01:02:51,453 Speaker 2: specific one eleven point two millions? Is this person two 1260 01:02:51,493 --> 01:02:52,733 Speaker 2: million a year? Two million? 1261 01:02:52,773 --> 01:02:52,893 Speaker 22: Off? 1262 01:02:53,413 --> 01:02:53,693 Speaker 9: Over? 1263 01:02:54,253 --> 01:02:55,933 Speaker 2: How many shops are there one hundred and one hundred 1264 01:02:55,933 --> 01:02:59,573 Speaker 2: and thirty five That would be that bit more return. 1265 01:03:00,653 --> 01:03:03,493 Speaker 2: Fifteen million salies make from the stores, right six, what 1266 01:03:03,613 --> 01:03:03,773 Speaker 2: is it? 1267 01:03:03,853 --> 01:03:07,213 Speaker 3: So here's the answer. So Salvation Army Family store regional 1268 01:03:07,213 --> 01:03:10,973 Speaker 3: consultant Nigel Water estimated they make collectively about one hundred 1269 01:03:10,973 --> 01:03:12,253 Speaker 3: and fifty million. 1270 01:03:11,933 --> 01:03:13,933 Speaker 2: Per year in New Zealand. They're gross. 1271 01:03:14,373 --> 01:03:16,853 Speaker 3: Well that is based on the turnover across its turnover 1272 01:03:17,053 --> 01:03:18,853 Speaker 3: one hundred and thirty five stores nationwide. 1273 01:03:18,893 --> 01:03:20,573 Speaker 2: Wow, yeah, that's not bad. 1274 01:03:20,653 --> 01:03:23,973 Speaker 3: So in twenty twenty two that turnover rose by twenty percent, 1275 01:03:24,093 --> 01:03:27,013 Speaker 3: so the charity stores were having quite a good year 1276 01:03:27,053 --> 01:03:29,573 Speaker 3: that year. But then you minus the million dollars plus 1277 01:03:29,573 --> 01:03:32,173 Speaker 3: that they have to spend on dealing with these dirty 1278 01:03:32,173 --> 01:03:32,733 Speaker 3: old chumpers. 1279 01:03:32,853 --> 01:03:35,693 Speaker 2: Yeah, and another text here says that twenty percent of 1280 01:03:35,733 --> 01:03:40,653 Speaker 2: everything is stolen from Salvation Army stores. Oh, it just 1281 01:03:40,693 --> 01:03:42,893 Speaker 2: gets worse and worse, doesn't it give the woman the 1282 01:03:42,893 --> 01:03:45,013 Speaker 2: option of paying the fine or working at a charity 1283 01:03:45,013 --> 01:03:48,133 Speaker 2: store in a Monday sorting and clearing the craf leftover 1284 01:03:48,533 --> 01:03:51,933 Speaker 2: the weekend and covered in urine is a good punishment 1285 01:03:52,173 --> 01:03:54,653 Speaker 2: urine and worse. So you know this story is on 1286 01:03:54,693 --> 01:03:58,933 Speaker 2: the back of a woman who was caught on CCTV 1287 01:03:59,613 --> 01:04:06,173 Speaker 2: making a donation when the store was closed, but the 1288 01:04:06,173 --> 01:04:09,333 Speaker 2: the council, the Auckland Council saw it as dumping and 1289 01:04:09,373 --> 01:04:11,253 Speaker 2: not a donation at all, because it wasn't when the 1290 01:04:11,253 --> 01:04:12,813 Speaker 2: store is opened and you don't know if they want 1291 01:04:12,853 --> 01:04:14,573 Speaker 2: them and they don't want the stuff or not. Yeah, 1292 01:04:14,613 --> 01:04:16,973 Speaker 2: so she's facing four hundred dollars, so yeah, give her 1293 01:04:17,013 --> 01:04:19,773 Speaker 2: a job dealing with your own soak clothes on a 1294 01:04:19,773 --> 01:04:23,453 Speaker 2: Monday morning. I think she'd probably play the four. 1295 01:04:23,293 --> 01:04:26,053 Speaker 3: Hundred absolutely oh, eight hundred and eighty ten eighties and number. 1296 01:04:26,173 --> 01:04:28,093 Speaker 3: Call esh, how are you this afternoon? 1297 01:04:29,653 --> 01:04:32,093 Speaker 2: Good mate, good, very good? 1298 01:04:32,373 --> 01:04:34,853 Speaker 3: So what are you reckon about these people who dump 1299 01:04:34,853 --> 01:04:36,213 Speaker 3: outside of these charity stores? 1300 01:04:38,853 --> 01:04:41,093 Speaker 11: Do they have any other option? The problem is that, 1301 01:04:41,133 --> 01:04:44,333 Speaker 11: I mean, I'm talking about myself. Both of us walk. 1302 01:04:44,853 --> 01:04:48,573 Speaker 11: We do all cleanup and walk at home over the weekend, 1303 01:04:49,053 --> 01:04:51,333 Speaker 11: but when we go out to donate the stincs over 1304 01:04:51,333 --> 01:04:53,133 Speaker 11: the weekend, after you've done a bit of a cleanup, 1305 01:04:53,573 --> 01:04:57,773 Speaker 11: they're always closed. So there's no other option. 1306 01:04:57,653 --> 01:04:59,293 Speaker 2: Right, yeah, well, well, I mean. 1307 01:04:59,333 --> 01:05:03,093 Speaker 11: We end up throwing can I finish? We end up 1308 01:05:03,133 --> 01:05:09,093 Speaker 11: throwing things in the council recycles, uh, places that could 1309 01:05:09,093 --> 01:05:15,253 Speaker 11: be very easily reused by people, right if if they 1310 01:05:15,413 --> 01:05:18,013 Speaker 11: plan out themselves and like maybe close on a Monday 1311 01:05:18,013 --> 01:05:21,053 Speaker 11: and open all day Sturday or a Sunday where people 1312 01:05:21,053 --> 01:05:23,093 Speaker 11: can come and drop these things and they can check 1313 01:05:23,493 --> 01:05:26,053 Speaker 11: and see what is good for them to keep and 1314 01:05:26,453 --> 01:05:29,933 Speaker 11: retain the others, that will probably help. Yeah, But in 1315 01:05:30,053 --> 01:05:32,573 Speaker 11: saying that, all the other stuff that they another lady 1316 01:05:32,573 --> 01:05:37,813 Speaker 11: said that they use about a million dollars to dump stuff. Yeah, 1317 01:05:38,133 --> 01:05:43,013 Speaker 11: pay their side of the play their game and give 1318 01:05:43,173 --> 01:05:46,453 Speaker 11: that I mean give people discount, right or no, don't 1319 01:05:46,533 --> 01:05:49,973 Speaker 11: charge them for it because they are a charitable organization. 1320 01:05:50,573 --> 01:05:55,093 Speaker 2: Yeah, but I guess even though yeah, yeah, I see 1321 01:05:55,093 --> 01:05:57,453 Speaker 2: what you're saying it, I guess they would say the 1322 01:05:57,533 --> 01:06:00,053 Speaker 2: charity stores is that they work with people that are 1323 01:06:00,133 --> 01:06:04,413 Speaker 2: volunteering their time, so they might just have have trouble 1324 01:06:04,573 --> 01:06:08,573 Speaker 2: with uh, you know, running it seven days away so 1325 01:06:08,613 --> 01:06:11,453 Speaker 2: people can drop off. But also it seems ash that 1326 01:06:11,853 --> 01:06:13,933 Speaker 2: a lot of these dumpings happen in the middle of 1327 01:06:13,973 --> 01:06:16,973 Speaker 2: the night, so they're not good people like you that 1328 01:06:17,053 --> 01:06:19,933 Speaker 2: are actually looking for an opportunity. So it'd be fantastic 1329 01:06:19,933 --> 01:06:22,093 Speaker 2: if they were open for you. But I think what's 1330 01:06:22,133 --> 01:06:25,693 Speaker 2: happening actually is people are just dumping it and looking 1331 01:06:25,693 --> 01:06:29,053 Speaker 2: for and looking for when the shop is closed so 1332 01:06:29,133 --> 01:06:30,853 Speaker 2: they can dump it to get rid of their stuff. 1333 01:06:30,853 --> 01:06:32,933 Speaker 2: If you're what I'm saying, I do not disagree. 1334 01:06:33,013 --> 01:06:34,853 Speaker 11: Yeah, I do not disagree. There are people like that, 1335 01:06:35,373 --> 01:06:38,973 Speaker 11: but probably thirty percent of the people people just don't 1336 01:06:39,013 --> 01:06:42,853 Speaker 11: bother going there anymore giving things to them to resell 1337 01:06:43,053 --> 01:06:46,013 Speaker 11: or reuse or whatever because of the difficulty of actually 1338 01:06:46,053 --> 01:06:47,533 Speaker 11: getting in there to give. 1339 01:06:47,373 --> 01:06:50,533 Speaker 2: It to them. Yeah. But yeah, well just just quickly ash. 1340 01:06:50,613 --> 01:06:52,693 Speaker 3: I mean, look, I get your point, but isn't the 1341 01:06:52,733 --> 01:06:55,933 Speaker 3: point of giving to a charity shop is you know 1342 01:06:56,053 --> 01:06:58,413 Speaker 3: they are doing good for the community, so you kind 1343 01:06:58,413 --> 01:07:00,133 Speaker 3: of go out of your way to help them out 1344 01:07:00,133 --> 01:07:02,213 Speaker 3: as well. And it might be a pain, but if 1345 01:07:02,253 --> 01:07:04,413 Speaker 3: you go in your weekend, you know it's up to 1346 01:07:04,493 --> 01:07:07,893 Speaker 3: you to be a bit charitable to the charity shops 1347 01:07:07,933 --> 01:07:10,053 Speaker 3: as and you giving some time to go down on 1348 01:07:10,093 --> 01:07:13,613 Speaker 3: the weekend and giving your stuff. 1349 01:07:13,493 --> 01:07:15,653 Speaker 11: If they're opening the weekend, yes I'm willing to do that. 1350 01:07:15,973 --> 01:07:19,013 Speaker 11: But even even if they open a little bit later, 1351 01:07:19,173 --> 01:07:21,413 Speaker 11: like open at ten o'clock and open till six thirty 1352 01:07:21,493 --> 01:07:25,493 Speaker 11: or seven o'clock, then we work for walking people, right, Yeah. 1353 01:07:25,173 --> 01:07:27,973 Speaker 2: Well think if you're cool, Ash, Yeah, I mean I 1354 01:07:28,013 --> 01:07:30,493 Speaker 2: see most charity shops open on Saturdays, though, aren't they? 1355 01:07:30,533 --> 01:07:30,773 Speaker 4: Yeah? 1356 01:07:30,813 --> 01:07:33,413 Speaker 2: Saturday morning at the very least, so that I guess 1357 01:07:33,413 --> 01:07:34,773 Speaker 2: that's a good time if you work all week.

We're going to catch on 1401 01:09:49,213 --> 01:09:51,093 Speaker 2: when you just dump your stuff out the front of 1402 01:09:51,093 --> 01:09:53,692 Speaker 2: a charity store when they're not open, and generally it's 1403 01:09:53,692 --> 01:09:56,532 Speaker 2: stuff that they don't want. So there's some people that 1404 01:09:56,853 --> 01:09:59,253 Speaker 2: support chumping. This is going to be good. There's someone 1405 01:09:59,253 --> 01:10:02,333 Speaker 2: that supports everything.

It is quarter three now we've 1411 01:10:16,452 --> 01:10:18,772 Speaker 3: been talking about chumpers. That is a term that we 1412 01:10:18,853 --> 01:10:21,692 Speaker 3: have made up here at the Afternoon Show, but it 1413 01:10:21,812 --> 01:10:27,213 Speaker 3: means charity dumpers, and it appears there are some people 1414 01:10:27,213 --> 01:10:28,932 Speaker 3: out there who are in favor of chumping. 1415 01:10:29,013 --> 01:10:29,213 Speaker 22: Yeah. 1416 01:10:29,213 --> 01:10:31,333 Speaker 2: So charity dumping, just to make it clear, is when 1417 01:10:31,412 --> 01:10:35,253 Speaker 2: you go after our hours and you dump your donations 1418 01:10:35,612 --> 01:10:37,732 Speaker 2: out the front of the store, not knowing whether they 1419 01:10:37,772 --> 01:10:39,213 Speaker 2: want to take it or not. Rather than taking it 1420 01:10:39,253 --> 01:10:40,892 Speaker 2: when they're open so they can pick and choose what 1421 01:10:40,893 --> 01:10:45,852 Speaker 2: they want. It's it's a fine line between donations and 1422 01:10:45,893 --> 01:10:47,933 Speaker 2: just dumping your crap for someone else to deal with it. 1423 01:10:48,612 --> 01:10:53,652 Speaker 2: This text here takes issue. Oh no with my opinion 1424 01:10:53,692 --> 01:10:55,692 Speaker 2: on this. Yeap, what a load of crap, says this 1425 01:10:55,772 --> 01:10:59,372 Speaker 2: textra on nine two nine two. You guys are fascists. Wow. 1426 01:11:00,053 --> 01:11:02,892 Speaker 2: Charity shops should be grateful they get anything. They don't 1427 01:11:02,893 --> 01:11:04,972 Speaker 2: get to pick and choose. If you are selling free 1428 01:11:05,013 --> 01:11:06,893 Speaker 2: stuff like they do, suck it up and take this 1429 01:11:06,973 --> 01:11:09,812 Speaker 2: stuff you don't want to dump. I will continue to 1430 01:11:09,853 --> 01:11:15,572 Speaker 2: drop my donations off whenever I want pathetic from you. Also, 1431 01:11:15,732 --> 01:11:18,333 Speaker 2: I'm sick of Matt saying he wants to taser people 1432 01:11:18,372 --> 01:11:21,213 Speaker 2: for every little crime. You really think someone dropping off 1433 01:11:21,253 --> 01:11:24,412 Speaker 2: clothes should be tasered? Fascist? Wow? 1434 01:11:25,013 --> 01:11:28,133 Speaker 3: Well I disagree on ninety nine percent of that, But 1435 01:11:28,173 --> 01:11:30,133 Speaker 3: you do love tasers all of a sudden, you really 1436 01:11:30,333 --> 01:11:31,253 Speaker 3: really love dases. 1437 01:11:31,532 --> 01:11:34,293 Speaker 2: It's a metaphor. I don't actually, I don't actually think 1438 01:11:34,293 --> 01:11:35,572 Speaker 2: that this woman should be days it. 1439 01:11:36,093 --> 01:11:37,892 Speaker 3: But to the rest of what that Texas said, you're 1440 01:11:37,893 --> 01:11:42,532 Speaker 3: a bad person. You're a bad, bad New Zealander, Sharon, 1441 01:11:42,572 --> 01:11:43,173 Speaker 3: How are you this. 1442 01:11:43,093 --> 01:11:45,973 Speaker 16: Afternoon, Good afternoon, good, thank you. 1443 01:11:46,412 --> 01:11:49,293 Speaker 2: Now what's your take on the charity dumping? 1444 01:11:50,652 --> 01:11:53,213 Speaker 16: Well? As the manager of an up shop, I've been 1445 01:11:53,253 --> 01:11:55,213 Speaker 16: following this thread very interestingly. 1446 01:11:55,532 --> 01:11:57,372 Speaker 2: Oh good, You're the perfect person to talk to. 1447 01:11:57,853 --> 01:12:00,333 Speaker 16: I definitely have a lot to say, but I won't 1448 01:12:00,532 --> 01:12:04,492 Speaker 16: keep you too much on the air. We get illegal 1449 01:12:04,612 --> 01:12:09,972 Speaker 16: dumping on a quite a regular basis after hours, so 1450 01:12:10,053 --> 01:12:13,452 Speaker 16: our shop is open Monday to Friday nine am two 1451 01:12:13,572 --> 01:12:17,293 Speaker 16: four pm. We're open on Saturday from nine to one, 1452 01:12:17,853 --> 01:12:21,652 Speaker 16: so plenty of time. I disagree with ash saying that 1453 01:12:21,692 --> 01:12:24,572 Speaker 16: we should say open longest to accommodate those who want 1454 01:12:24,572 --> 01:12:28,133 Speaker 16: to bring their stuff. We feel if you can't bring 1455 01:12:28,173 --> 01:12:30,692 Speaker 16: it in those times, you know, have a family member 1456 01:12:30,692 --> 01:12:34,772 Speaker 16: bring it. I have issued Auckland Council fines at four 1457 01:12:34,853 --> 01:12:39,213 Speaker 16: hundred dollars apiece for illegal dumping. Just this morning I 1458 01:12:39,293 --> 01:12:42,253 Speaker 16: came to work and watched my CCTV footage and there 1459 01:12:42,333 --> 01:12:45,333 Speaker 16: was another illegal dump at quarter past three in the afternoon. 1460 01:12:45,772 --> 01:12:48,773 Speaker 16: What was it quarter past three in the morning, My apologies, 1461 01:12:48,853 --> 01:12:50,132 Speaker 16: quarter past three in the morning. 1462 01:12:50,333 --> 01:12:51,932 Speaker 2: What was that dumping, Sharon? 1463 01:12:52,372 --> 01:12:56,892 Speaker 16: That was rubbish, soiled, dirty, smelly, stinking clothing that I 1464 01:12:56,933 --> 01:12:59,652 Speaker 16: had to put in my skip bin and we have 1465 01:12:59,812 --> 01:13:03,213 Speaker 16: to pay you know, JJ Richards bless their hearts to 1466 01:13:03,253 --> 01:13:05,812 Speaker 16: pick up our skippin for the rubbish.

Last year we gave away 1506 01:15:11,412 --> 01:15:15,813 Speaker 16: sixty thousand dollars to the community, and which is amazing. 1507 01:15:16,293 --> 01:15:18,452 Speaker 16: But if we have to pay, you know, so much 1508 01:15:18,492 --> 01:15:20,852 Speaker 16: in dump fees. That just cuts into the money we're 1509 01:15:20,853 --> 01:15:22,852 Speaker 16: giving back to the community. If we have to pay 1510 01:15:23,293 --> 01:15:26,213 Speaker 16: to the skip then's picked up.

If you're dumping at three am, 1520 01:15:45,933 --> 01:15:46,692 Speaker 2: you know it's crap. 1521 01:15:46,772 --> 01:15:50,133 Speaker 16: Yeah, exactly.

But 1634 01:21:36,412 --> 01:21:38,972 Speaker 2: we were walking home and we walked past this clothing 1635 01:21:38,973 --> 01:21:42,253 Speaker 2: burd and he goes, watch this, I'm a jump in there. 1636 01:21:43,213 --> 01:21:47,333 Speaker 2: And I was like, okay, and so he jumped in right. 1637 01:21:47,652 --> 01:21:50,253 Speaker 2: But then suddenly there was a banging and craziness and 1638 01:21:50,853 --> 01:21:53,932 Speaker 2: it was like a cartoon. It was like you know 1639 01:21:54,053 --> 01:21:59,812 Speaker 2: when and there was all this yelling and he jumped in. 1640 01:21:59,812 --> 01:22:03,572 Speaker 2: There was somebody already in there, so I don't know, 1641 01:22:03,732 --> 01:22:06,133 Speaker 2: there was some some guy was sleeping in there. So 1642 01:22:06,173 --> 01:22:08,693 Speaker 2: there was two of them got into this big cards 1643 01:22:09,173 --> 01:22:11,572 Speaker 2: inside the clothing, but there was no clothes in there. 1644 01:22:11,612 --> 01:22:13,652 Speaker 2: I'd take it. No, there were clothing there, but there 1645 01:22:13,692 --> 01:22:15,492 Speaker 2: was and that's fine. There was supposed to be closing there. 1646 01:22:15,492 --> 01:22:17,772 Speaker 2: There wasn't supposed to be one person in there, let 1647 01:22:17,812 --> 01:22:19,732 Speaker 2: alone two people. And so I don't know why that 1648 01:22:19,772 --> 01:22:22,812 Speaker 2: other person was in there. They might have been homeless 1649 01:22:22,893 --> 01:22:24,892 Speaker 2: or something, but boy oh boy, that would have been 1650 01:22:24,893 --> 01:22:27,012 Speaker 2: a shock to the system for him. And as a result, 1651 01:22:27,053 --> 01:22:29,173 Speaker 2: there was this whole cartoon like free cars in there. 1652 01:22:29,253 --> 01:22:30,852 Speaker 3: You would have been thankful there was some clothes in 1653 01:22:30,893 --> 01:22:33,692 Speaker 3: there for padding from whoever the second person, and there was. 1654 01:22:33,812 --> 01:22:38,053 Speaker 2: Yeah, so I had pull Grubby out.
