So there's submissions on 143 00:06:30,453 --> 00:06:33,973 Speaker 3: a new bill underway as we speak, and the legislation 144 00:06:34,053 --> 00:06:37,733 Speaker 3: focuses on mandating life jackets for people under fifteen. As 145 00:06:37,773 --> 00:06:42,013 Speaker 3: you can imagine water safety right behind this. They've been 146 00:06:42,133 --> 00:06:44,413 Speaker 3: long behind life jackets in general. But that's what we 147 00:06:44,453 --> 00:06:45,733 Speaker 3: want to have a chat about. Have we got our 148 00:06:45,893 --> 00:06:47,693 Speaker 3: life jacket legislation right? 149 00:06:47,933 --> 00:06:48,213 Speaker 6: Yeah? 150 00:06:48,293 --> 00:06:52,533 Speaker 2: Are we still being you know, what's the word. There's 151 00:06:52,533 --> 00:06:54,373 Speaker 2: a word for it. I'm struggling for it, but I 152 00:06:54,373 --> 00:06:55,853 Speaker 2: guess I'll describe what it was like when I was 153 00:06:55,893 --> 00:06:58,613 Speaker 2: a kid, right my dad's we had a little trailer sailor. 154 00:06:59,213 --> 00:07:01,853 Speaker 2: He was very safety conscious. We'd get out of the 155 00:07:01,853 --> 00:07:04,013 Speaker 2: car and he'd make us put on our big orange 156 00:07:04,053 --> 00:07:06,173 Speaker 2: life jackets before we even got on the boat. Yep, 157 00:07:06,293 --> 00:07:08,173 Speaker 2: before we even climbed into the boat. We had our 158 00:07:08,173 --> 00:07:11,213 Speaker 2: life jackets. Humiliating and admittedly, you know you've got a 159 00:07:11,253 --> 00:07:12,853 Speaker 2: mass wing around and there was a good chance getting 160 00:07:12,893 --> 00:07:15,413 Speaker 2: knocked off whatever when we're going about or whatever. But 161 00:07:15,933 --> 00:07:18,333 Speaker 2: it did seem and I remember being embarrassed because I 162 00:07:18,493 --> 00:07:21,773 Speaker 2: saw on some of my friends down at the launch 163 00:07:22,253 --> 00:07:23,813 Speaker 2: and I'd have my life jacket on. I'd feel a 164 00:07:23,853 --> 00:07:26,373 Speaker 2: bit embarrassed about having the life jacket on because everyone 165 00:07:26,373 --> 00:07:28,093 Speaker 2: else was not wearing a life jacket. And this was, 166 00:07:28,333 --> 00:07:30,733 Speaker 2: you know, a few years ago now, yeah, a number 167 00:07:30,733 --> 00:07:34,693 Speaker 2: of years ago. But it does seem quite crazy, how 168 00:07:34,773 --> 00:07:38,213 Speaker 2: embarrassed I was just to put on something, especially trying 169 00:07:38,213 --> 00:07:41,853 Speaker 2: to sail around Dunedin. Yeah, I mean there's some there 170 00:07:41,853 --> 00:07:43,253 Speaker 2: were some rough waters we were going out. 171 00:07:43,253 --> 00:07:45,453 Speaker 3: It is choppy seas down in Dunedin. 172 00:07:45,693 --> 00:07:48,773 Speaker 2: So is there still a stigma about life jackets? Do 173 00:07:48,813 --> 00:07:52,133 Speaker 2: you think that the life Jackets rules are too harsh 174 00:07:52,253 --> 00:07:54,453 Speaker 2: or do you think that they should be blanket? 175 00:07:55,013 --> 00:07:57,133 Speaker 3: Yeah, looking forward to that. That's a big one after 176 00:07:57,133 --> 00:08:00,253 Speaker 3: two o'clock. But right now, let's have a chat about 177 00:08:00,293 --> 00:08:03,653 Speaker 3: rentals and landlords. So rental prices have fallen to their 178 00:08:03,693 --> 00:08:07,333 Speaker 3: lowest level in two years in September, so that's prompted 179 00:08:07,333 --> 00:08:10,693 Speaker 3: some landlords to offer incentives to entice people to viewings. 180 00:08:10,733 --> 00:08:13,573 Speaker 3: But speaking after a Select Committee, a little bit earlier 181 00:08:13,573 --> 00:08:16,213 Speaker 3: this week Chris Bishop, the Housing Minister. He said rented 182 00:08:16,253 --> 00:08:19,653 Speaker 3: should be taking advantage of this current current market. He said, 183 00:08:19,653 --> 00:08:22,373 Speaker 3: I quote, I'd encourage people to go and negotiate with 184 00:08:22,413 --> 00:08:24,893 Speaker 3: their landlord. If they think they can get lower rents, 185 00:08:24,973 --> 00:08:27,213 Speaker 3: they should because that will be good for them and 186 00:08:27,253 --> 00:08:28,773 Speaker 3: it will be good for their own back pocket. 187 00:08:28,973 --> 00:08:31,053 Speaker 2: Thanks textra nine two nine two. Yes, the word I 188 00:08:31,093 --> 00:08:33,613 Speaker 2: was looking for was pedanic o nice. Didn't come to me. 189 00:08:33,813 --> 00:08:37,093 Speaker 2: The article speaks again, didn't come to me. Yeah, thank 190 00:08:37,133 --> 00:08:39,573 Speaker 2: you for that. Yes, So we got a text in 191 00:08:39,612 --> 00:08:43,053 Speaker 2: the last hour and it's course a little bit of 192 00:08:43,053 --> 00:08:46,693 Speaker 2: a flurry of reaction on nine two nine two. If 193 00:08:46,773 --> 00:08:50,253 Speaker 2: you are the kind of person who oh hannate you 194 00:08:51,252 --> 00:08:54,333 Speaker 2: if you negotiate with me as a potential tenant, I say, 195 00:08:54,453 --> 00:08:57,133 Speaker 2: jog on, suggest to me you will be an annoying 196 00:08:57,173 --> 00:09:00,213 Speaker 2: tenant going forward. So there are some lendld out there 197 00:09:00,213 --> 00:09:05,173 Speaker 2: that have that attitude. Jane hit back against that texture 198 00:09:05,252 --> 00:09:07,693 Speaker 2: to that tossus is Jane who said he'd tell a 199 00:09:07,693 --> 00:09:10,052 Speaker 2: potential tenant to jog On if they ask for a 200 00:09:10,093 --> 00:09:13,612 Speaker 2: rent reduction. He'll be waiting a long time to secure 201 00:09:13,612 --> 00:09:16,053 Speaker 2: a tenant better off getting paid a lower rent than 202 00:09:16,053 --> 00:09:19,852 Speaker 2: getting no rent. Typical greedy landlord. It's all about money. 203 00:09:20,252 --> 00:09:24,213 Speaker 2: Shots fired landlord here. It was mentioned on your program, 204 00:09:24,293 --> 00:09:26,733 Speaker 2: wouldn't you want to keep a professional, well paid tenant 205 00:09:26,732 --> 00:09:29,533 Speaker 2: in your property. Professional people and good jobs don't necessarily 206 00:09:29,533 --> 00:09:31,973 Speaker 2: make good tenants. In fact, it has been opposite experience 207 00:09:32,012 --> 00:09:35,173 Speaker 2: of such for me, lazy, dirty and costly. If someone 208 00:09:35,213 --> 00:09:37,573 Speaker 2: tried to bargain the rent, they could find another property 209 00:09:37,612 --> 00:09:38,973 Speaker 2: rent not interested. 210 00:09:39,053 --> 00:09:41,573 Speaker 3: Right, keep those teas coming through a nine to two 211 00:09:41,653 --> 00:09:43,613 Speaker 3: nine two. But that's some passion right there. If you 212 00:09:43,653 --> 00:09:45,853 Speaker 3: are a landlord, is there how you feel that if 213 00:09:46,012 --> 00:09:48,093 Speaker 3: a tenant comes to you and sees, hey, the market's 214 00:09:48,093 --> 00:09:50,693 Speaker 3: down a little bit, I want to renegotiate. Are you 215 00:09:50,732 --> 00:09:53,573 Speaker 3: thinking in your backy head? Nah, I'll just get somebody else. 216 00:09:53,612 --> 00:09:55,373 Speaker 2: They're going to be a problem for every single part 217 00:09:55,413 --> 00:09:58,053 Speaker 2: of this thing. Yeah, it depends how long your property's 218 00:09:58,053 --> 00:10:02,613 Speaker 2: been on the market exactly. So if you're hemorrhaging money 219 00:10:02,773 --> 00:10:05,693 Speaker 2: and the idea, I hate the idea that landlords agreedy landlord's. 220 00:10:06,852 --> 00:10:10,733 Speaker 2: You know, most landlords are good people that are just 221 00:10:10,732 --> 00:10:14,892 Speaker 2: trying to secure their future. And most landlords are also well, 222 00:10:14,892 --> 00:10:17,773 Speaker 2: a lot of landlords also topping up the rent to 223 00:10:17,773 --> 00:10:21,173 Speaker 2: cover the mortgage. Yep, definitely in those houses. So I 224 00:10:21,213 --> 00:10:23,333 Speaker 2: pushed back on the idea that the majority of landlords 225 00:10:23,333 --> 00:10:28,653 Speaker 2: are greedy. I'd say very small percentage are yep. But yeah, 226 00:10:29,053 --> 00:10:31,372 Speaker 2: the negotiation part with them. If they've been waiting for 227 00:10:32,653 --> 00:10:37,132 Speaker 2: four months and they're hemorrhaging money, yep, then you know 228 00:10:37,892 --> 00:10:39,612 Speaker 2: they're not going to tell you to jog on exactly. 229 00:10:39,653 --> 00:10:41,693 Speaker 3: If all they wanted was a twenty dollars reduction per 230 00:10:41,773 --> 00:10:44,813 Speaker 3: week and you've let it sit at arguably seven hundred 231 00:10:44,813 --> 00:10:46,573 Speaker 3: bucks a week for a couple of months, you know 232 00:10:46,693 --> 00:10:48,453 Speaker 3: you're losing out. There is a landlord, so love to 233 00:10:48,453 --> 00:10:50,892 Speaker 3: hear from you. If you're a landlord, do you incentivize 234 00:10:50,933 --> 00:10:53,132 Speaker 3: the good tenants? So if you get someone who's actually 235 00:10:53,293 --> 00:10:55,493 Speaker 3: really good and they look after the property and you've 236 00:10:55,533 --> 00:10:58,492 Speaker 3: loved them, they may not come to you and say, 237 00:10:58,612 --> 00:11:00,413 Speaker 3: I think we should have a lower rent, but you 238 00:11:00,533 --> 00:11:02,693 Speaker 3: might be the one to go to them and say, 239 00:11:02,852 --> 00:11:05,053 Speaker 3: we like having you here, we think you're good people. 240 00:11:05,053 --> 00:11:07,532 Speaker 3: We see the market's gone down, and we think it's 241 00:11:07,573 --> 00:11:09,172 Speaker 3: fair for us to say, hey, we're going to drop 242 00:11:09,173 --> 00:11:10,493 Speaker 3: the rent a little bit. Loved it. 243 00:11:10,653 --> 00:11:13,612 Speaker 2: There'd be good will oozing out of the walls. Yeah, 244 00:11:13,693 --> 00:11:17,133 Speaker 2: if you should happen to start the conversation yourself as 245 00:11:17,132 --> 00:11:19,372 Speaker 2: a land land, wouldn't you. But also on the widest thing, 246 00:11:19,413 --> 00:11:21,693 Speaker 2: if you're the kind of person who can or even 247 00:11:21,852 --> 00:11:25,013 Speaker 2: enjoys negotiating, I would like to hear from you as well, 248 00:11:25,252 --> 00:11:27,732 Speaker 2: what are your tips? Because if you negotiate rent, then 249 00:11:27,732 --> 00:11:30,453 Speaker 2: surely you're the kind of person that's walking around negotiating everything. 250 00:11:31,573 --> 00:11:34,213 Speaker 2: Just for people out there that are listening that ever 251 00:11:34,293 --> 00:11:37,493 Speaker 2: end up doing business for me. I don't negotiate. I 252 00:11:37,573 --> 00:11:38,612 Speaker 2: pay the price on the ticket. 253 00:11:38,653 --> 00:11:39,653 Speaker 3: You've let it slip there. 254 00:11:40,612 --> 00:11:43,173 Speaker 2: I'm just a people pleaser. I want to make everyone happy. 255 00:11:43,372 --> 00:11:45,973 Speaker 3: It is seventeen past one, oh one hundred and eighty 256 00:11:46,012 --> 00:11:48,293 Speaker 3: ten eighty is that number to call the. 257 00:11:48,173 --> 00:11:52,133 Speaker 1: Big stories, the big issues, the big trends and everything 258 00:11:52,132 --> 00:11:55,813 Speaker 1: in between. Matt Heath and Tyler Adams afternoons news talks. 259 00:11:55,813 --> 00:11:58,732 Speaker 3: It'd be news talks. They'd be very good. Afternoon t 260 00:11:58,732 --> 00:12:01,413 Speaker 3: you twenty past one. So we're talking about negotiating your 261 00:12:01,492 --> 00:12:04,612 Speaker 3: rent or as a landlord. Have you ever gone to 262 00:12:04,653 --> 00:12:06,893 Speaker 3: your tendant and say we love you and we're going 263 00:12:06,933 --> 00:12:08,773 Speaker 3: to give you away incentive and drop the rent because 264 00:12:08,773 --> 00:12:09,653 Speaker 3: the market's gone down. 265 00:12:09,653 --> 00:12:12,813 Speaker 2: To all those people that are believing that current narrative 266 00:12:12,813 --> 00:12:15,453 Speaker 2: that's put out in the market, in the media and 267 00:12:15,533 --> 00:12:18,413 Speaker 2: the world at the moment around landlords somehow being bad. 268 00:12:18,453 --> 00:12:21,613 Speaker 2: People like everyone can own a house right off the 269 00:12:21,653 --> 00:12:23,573 Speaker 2: bat that they don't have to rent at some point. 270 00:12:23,933 --> 00:12:26,172 Speaker 2: I always think about this. When I first moved to Auckland, right, 271 00:12:26,173 --> 00:12:27,933 Speaker 2: I couldn't buy a house. I was broke, I had 272 00:12:27,973 --> 00:12:30,333 Speaker 2: absolutely no money. I had to live in a shed. 273 00:12:30,813 --> 00:12:32,493 Speaker 2: I had to live in a shed on Ariki Street 274 00:12:32,612 --> 00:12:35,372 Speaker 2: just to do the job I wanted to do up here, right, 275 00:12:35,892 --> 00:12:37,973 Speaker 2: And then eventually I rented a house. What do they 276 00:12:38,053 --> 00:12:40,532 Speaker 2: mean that there's something wrong with landlords? How was I 277 00:12:40,573 --> 00:12:43,213 Speaker 2: supposed to live anywhere if there weren't people that were 278 00:12:43,213 --> 00:12:46,253 Speaker 2: willing to buy houses and rent them out to people. Exactly, 279 00:12:46,813 --> 00:12:49,093 Speaker 2: how are poor people like me supposed to get a hit? 280 00:12:49,492 --> 00:12:51,573 Speaker 3: And as I said to you, I'm technically a landlord 281 00:12:51,573 --> 00:12:53,412 Speaker 3: at the moment, and I'm losing money. I am losing 282 00:12:53,453 --> 00:12:55,053 Speaker 3: money on that house because I have to rent up 283 00:12:55,093 --> 00:12:57,493 Speaker 3: here where it's not paying for the mortgage and for 284 00:12:57,492 --> 00:12:58,732 Speaker 3: the insurance and everything else. 285 00:12:58,813 --> 00:13:02,933 Speaker 2: When you ever hear a politician or just a person 286 00:13:03,093 --> 00:13:04,852 Speaker 2: in general saying that about landlords. 287 00:13:04,852 --> 00:13:09,772 Speaker 3: Boo, yeah, exactly, Yeah, shame on you people. 288 00:13:09,813 --> 00:13:11,213 Speaker 2: What are your real motives for saying that? 289 00:13:11,612 --> 00:13:12,053 Speaker 3: Exactly? 290 00:13:12,132 --> 00:13:16,652 Speaker 2: Ask Peter your thoughts on on landlords and negotiation. 291 00:13:17,973 --> 00:13:21,933 Speaker 7: Yeah, fair as well, compliments of the season, I suppose 292 00:13:21,973 --> 00:13:23,132 Speaker 7: when you start saying that. 293 00:13:23,293 --> 00:13:27,732 Speaker 2: Yeah it's December. Yeah, yeah, compliments of the season as well, Peter, 294 00:13:28,813 --> 00:13:29,213 Speaker 2: And just. 295 00:13:29,213 --> 00:13:30,973 Speaker 7: Well on one of the other tip, because there's just 296 00:13:30,973 --> 00:13:33,333 Speaker 7: a one liner, you know, you know when you say 297 00:13:33,453 --> 00:13:35,772 Speaker 7: hey to someone.

So good 307 00:14:09,813 --> 00:14:11,012 Speaker 7: friends coming down, so be it. 308 00:14:12,012 --> 00:14:14,492 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I mean apart from this one texture that 309 00:14:14,653 --> 00:14:17,132 Speaker 2: came through before and said they say jog on if 310 00:14:17,132 --> 00:14:19,293 Speaker 2: someone asked for some money off, but I don't think 311 00:14:19,293 --> 00:14:23,933 Speaker 2: it would. I mean, like a real, you know, solid 312 00:14:24,053 --> 00:14:26,853 Speaker 2: landlord is not going to be offended by you saying, well, 313 00:14:26,893 --> 00:14:28,733 Speaker 2: you know, I've just been looking around at the market 314 00:14:28,733 --> 00:14:31,613 Speaker 2: in this area. I've been doing a bit of investigation, 315 00:14:31,973 --> 00:14:34,253 Speaker 2: and I feel like the rent that you're asking for 316 00:14:34,293 --> 00:14:37,333 Speaker 2: at this particular place is a bit higher than the 317 00:14:37,373 --> 00:14:39,693 Speaker 2: market rate. So could you give me all? You know, 318 00:14:40,173 --> 00:14:41,213 Speaker 2: I suggest this amount? 319 00:14:41,333 --> 00:14:41,493 Speaker 6: Yep. 320 00:14:41,613 --> 00:14:43,293 Speaker 2: I mean that landlord's say use or no. 321 00:14:44,413 --> 00:14:44,613 Speaker 8: Yeah. 322 00:14:44,653 --> 00:14:46,373 Speaker 7: I mean a solid landlord will sort of know that 323 00:14:46,413 --> 00:14:51,893 Speaker 7: stuff himself, probably, so yeah, I mean so yeah. I 324 00:14:51,893 --> 00:14:54,773 Speaker 7: mean if if he's outer another twenty but Council of Health, 325 00:14:54,773 --> 00:14:57,013 Speaker 7: it's showing a pretty dumb landlord. 326 00:14:57,693 --> 00:14:57,933 Speaker 1: Yeah. 327 00:14:57,973 --> 00:14:59,613 Speaker 3: Yeah. Well, if you don't have a tenants in there 328 00:14:59,613 --> 00:15:01,253 Speaker 3: and you've got week without rent, if you're. 329 00:15:01,133 --> 00:15:03,133 Speaker 2: A landold, I don't negotiate it, no matter what, even 330 00:15:03,133 --> 00:15:05,333 Speaker 2: if my house sits empty for six months, I will 331 00:15:05,333 --> 00:15:07,893 Speaker 2: not negotiate. It's not not a smart landlord. 332 00:15:08,933 --> 00:15:12,773 Speaker 7: And with interest rates going up or down, it doesn't 333 00:15:12,813 --> 00:15:15,893 Speaker 7: really affect the rent too much because it's a marketing. 334 00:15:15,933 --> 00:15:21,013 Speaker 7: Rents can't say borgage rates of seven percent the rent 335 00:15:21,013 --> 00:15:23,133 Speaker 7: that can't afford to pay the extra for the landlord 336 00:15:23,533 --> 00:15:25,813 Speaker 7: to pay the mortgage. You know, you're going to go 337 00:15:25,853 --> 00:15:28,893 Speaker 7: from say six hundred a week to eight point fifty, 338 00:15:28,933 --> 00:15:30,973 Speaker 7: which is which will be a bridge too far because 339 00:15:30,973 --> 00:15:34,493 Speaker 7: the market can't handle that. And it's the same with 340 00:15:34,613 --> 00:15:38,373 Speaker 7: rates and insurance that goes up, but the landlord can't 341 00:15:38,373 --> 00:15:42,292 Speaker 7: really pass all that on because the tenants rate won't 342 00:15:42,293 --> 00:15:43,013 Speaker 7: be able to pay it. 343 00:15:43,213 --> 00:15:43,973 Speaker 3: Yeah. 344 00:15:44,053 --> 00:15:47,773 Speaker 7: Yeah, but you know, you get you get into these things. 345 00:15:48,373 --> 00:15:50,453 Speaker 7: It should be eyes wide open. You know it's going 346 00:15:50,493 --> 00:15:53,533 Speaker 7: to be ups and downs. But you're only in there 347 00:15:53,533 --> 00:15:56,493 Speaker 7: for the capital gain. Really, the rent. The rent is 348 00:15:56,573 --> 00:15:59,973 Speaker 7: just to help pay the mortgage. You want the capital gain. 349 00:16:00,013 --> 00:16:01,533 Speaker 7: That's where you get the money from at the end 350 00:16:01,533 --> 00:16:01,933 Speaker 7: of the day. 351 00:16:02,333 --> 00:16:04,292 Speaker 3: Yeah, a lot of truth in that, Peter.

But would you ever 355 00:16:15,213 --> 00:16:17,813 Speaker 3: maybe it's not. Maybe commercial is very similar. Would you 356 00:16:17,813 --> 00:16:21,412 Speaker 3: ever go to a tenant who's been really good and say, look, 357 00:16:21,453 --> 00:16:24,253 Speaker 3: I think the market, you know, what your paying might 358 00:16:24,293 --> 00:16:26,333 Speaker 3: be a little bit high in terms of the market value. 359 00:16:26,453 --> 00:16:29,013 Speaker 3: I'm willing to reduce the rent or even you know, 360 00:16:29,213 --> 00:16:30,813 Speaker 3: a nice gift at the end of the year. 361 00:16:31,933 --> 00:16:33,573 Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean I do, I do that. I mean, 362 00:16:33,813 --> 00:16:36,373 Speaker 7: if someone leaves, I'll just have to go by what 363 00:16:36,453 --> 00:16:39,013 Speaker 7: the market says. I'm not interesting in getting the hot 364 00:16:39,973 --> 00:16:42,573 Speaker 7: squeezing every little bit out to get the highest price. 365 00:16:42,893 --> 00:16:48,333 Speaker 7: I'd rather just have it but lower and pretty well full. Yeah, 366 00:16:48,453 --> 00:16:50,293 Speaker 7: I mean, couldn't.

Yeah, I mean, that's the 418 00:18:51,413 --> 00:18:53,813 Speaker 2: situation for a lot of landlords right now. So they're 419 00:18:53,853 --> 00:18:56,453 Speaker 2: not own they were not only in the rental markets 420 00:18:57,933 --> 00:19:01,573 Speaker 2: and topping it up, you know, trying to sort out 421 00:19:01,573 --> 00:19:05,333 Speaker 2: their futures.

Is a George? I mean, 428 00:19:21,893 --> 00:19:23,093 Speaker 2: is that the cowardly way to go? 429 00:19:23,253 --> 00:19:25,933 Speaker 3: It definitely is to not negotiate yourself one hundred percent. 430 00:19:25,933 --> 00:19:27,773 Speaker 3: If a property manager says, I think it's worth this, 431 00:19:27,893 --> 00:19:30,853 Speaker 3: but you know it's overpriced, then that's up to you 432 00:19:30,933 --> 00:19:31,893 Speaker 3: to say the property manager. 433 00:19:32,053 --> 00:19:35,413 Speaker 2: Nah, na na, Nah, you been greedy, Molly.

And I'm 442 00:19:59,653 --> 00:20:02,493 Speaker 11: really transparent with them, and we split that evenly between 443 00:20:02,533 --> 00:20:04,173 Speaker 11: the three of us. And when I had to reseax, 444 00:20:04,933 --> 00:20:07,893 Speaker 11: we talked through the options and we stood that together. 445 00:20:08,453 --> 00:20:11,053 Speaker 11: And so they know that, you know, we might have 446 00:20:11,133 --> 00:20:13,053 Speaker 11: to reflex or whatever. It might go up, it could 447 00:20:13,053 --> 00:20:14,653 Speaker 11: go down. But I keep them in the loop with it, 448 00:20:16,013 --> 00:20:17,973 Speaker 11: so they know exactly where their money is going and 449 00:20:17,973 --> 00:20:19,613 Speaker 11: what I'm spending it on and all of that. 450 00:20:19,853 --> 00:20:25,333 Speaker 2: Some So, Molly, with your situation, are you just trying 451 00:20:25,413 --> 00:20:30,973 Speaker 2: to break even essentially, and you know, ride the capital 452 00:20:31,013 --> 00:20:32,213 Speaker 2: gains if they should come. 453 00:20:33,493 --> 00:20:33,733 Speaker 12: Yeah. 454 00:20:33,773 --> 00:20:36,813 Speaker 11: So I just I just yeah, I'm real transparent. I'm like, 455 00:20:36,853 --> 00:20:38,933 Speaker 11: I don't think I should be making money off them, 456 00:20:39,533 --> 00:20:41,533 Speaker 11: you know. I mean I bought the house, but most 457 00:20:41,533 --> 00:20:44,493 Speaker 11: of the bank did it for me, you know, I 458 00:20:44,533 --> 00:20:46,373 Speaker 11: just had a little bit put towards it.

So as I said, I don't like 508 00:22:57,893 --> 00:23:00,213 Speaker 11: phone calls and I don't like confrontations. So I've lived 509 00:23:00,253 --> 00:23:03,733 Speaker 11: my life never ever but bantering or bargaining for anything. 510 00:23:04,293 --> 00:23:07,773 Speaker 11: And one of our family friends said to me, he 511 00:23:07,813 --> 00:23:09,933 Speaker 11: was American, to go do it in the voice, he said, Molly, 512 00:23:10,573 --> 00:23:13,853 Speaker 11: you get half of what you ask for and none 513 00:23:13,853 --> 00:23:16,253 Speaker 11: of what you don't. And that was that for them, 514 00:23:16,373 --> 00:23:19,973 Speaker 11: and I was like, holy moly, that's so true. The 515 00:23:20,013 --> 00:23:22,293 Speaker 11: worst thing that could ever happen if someone says no 516 00:23:22,413 --> 00:23:24,373 Speaker 11: to me, and that's not a big deal. But the 517 00:23:24,373 --> 00:23:26,813 Speaker 11: best thing that could happen is I get my outcome. Yeah, 518 00:23:27,013 --> 00:23:28,933 Speaker 11: all the listeners out there, you get half of what 519 00:23:28,973 --> 00:23:29,853 Speaker 11: you ask for and none. 520 00:23:29,733 --> 00:23:31,773 Speaker 2: Of what you've done, they might as well, that's pretty 521 00:23:31,813 --> 00:23:34,493 Speaker 2: that's good advice, Molly. What about this sort of I 522 00:23:34,533 --> 00:23:36,613 Speaker 2: guess for the want of a better term, with the 523 00:23:36,653 --> 00:23:39,532 Speaker 2: passive aggressive way to go around it. You talk to 524 00:23:39,653 --> 00:23:42,532 Speaker 2: your talking to a potential landlord, and you go, is 525 00:23:42,573 --> 00:23:45,533 Speaker 2: this the best you can do? You know, price wise? 526 00:23:45,613 --> 00:23:47,573 Speaker 2: Is this the best you can do? Because you're not 527 00:23:47,613 --> 00:23:51,053 Speaker 2: really getting half of that. You're just sort of floating 528 00:23:51,093 --> 00:23:53,133 Speaker 2: the idea that maybe they want to offer up a 529 00:23:53,173 --> 00:23:54,013 Speaker 2: little less. 530 00:23:54,293 --> 00:23:56,773 Speaker 11: Yeah. But then they'll either go, yes, it is the 531 00:23:56,813 --> 00:23:58,813 Speaker 11: best sorry, and you go all right, didn't get my way, 532 00:23:58,893 --> 00:24:00,813 Speaker 11: or they'll go, actually, thanks for bringing that to me. 533 00:24:00,893 --> 00:24:02,853 Speaker 11: I'll ponder, and then you're still, you know, good a 534 00:24:02,853 --> 00:24:03,573 Speaker 11: little limb. 535 00:24:03,493 --> 00:24:05,093 Speaker 2: Yeah, or maybe you should be a little bit more 536 00:24:05,093 --> 00:24:08,093 Speaker 2: forceful Molly and go I don't think this. 537 00:24:08,173 --> 00:24:11,293 Speaker 11: Is your rates and your insurance. 538 00:24:12,253 --> 00:24:13,973 Speaker 3: Meet me halfway here, you know, come on, I think 539 00:24:14,013 --> 00:24:15,973 Speaker 3: you do a little bit lower discount for cash. 540 00:24:16,053 --> 00:24:18,453 Speaker 2: I just don't think this is the best. That would 541 00:24:18,493 --> 00:24:20,933 Speaker 2: that would come across really condescending and probably get their 542 00:24:20,933 --> 00:24:22,413 Speaker 2: back up. And you said, I don't think this is 543 00:24:22,453 --> 00:24:24,933 Speaker 2: the best you can do, but yeah. 544 00:24:25,173 --> 00:24:26,453 Speaker 11: I guess you've got to ask. 545 00:24:26,893 --> 00:24:29,653 Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess do your research, right, So you talk 546 00:24:29,693 --> 00:24:33,293 Speaker 2: about how you you know you have all those details 547 00:24:33,373 --> 00:24:35,093 Speaker 2: with your the people that live with you, so they 548 00:24:35,093 --> 00:24:39,293 Speaker 2: know exactly what's going on.

Property managers correct me if I'm wrong. 662 00:29:45,213 --> 00:29:47,493 Speaker 3: But I think many property managers think their job is 663 00:29:47,533 --> 00:29:50,493 Speaker 3: to get the most for their clients aka the people 664 00:29:50,573 --> 00:29:53,133 Speaker 3: that own the home, and so far the middleman and 665 00:29:53,253 --> 00:29:56,213 Speaker 3: the landlord says, hey, look, I hear they're having some 666 00:29:56,293 --> 00:30:00,613 Speaker 3: problems here. I'm willing to buy a dehumidifier or reduce 667 00:30:00,693 --> 00:30:03,653 Speaker 3: the rent. I just wonder if some property managers to say, hey, 668 00:30:03,733 --> 00:30:06,173 Speaker 3: this is our job, we will negotiate with the tenants. 669 00:30:06,213 --> 00:30:08,173 Speaker 3: You don't have to do that. That goes too far, 670 00:30:08,693 --> 00:30:10,853 Speaker 3: Which is a strange thing for me, because I think, hey, 671 00:30:10,933 --> 00:30:14,533 Speaker 3: I've made the offer here. I think it's fair. I 672 00:30:14,573 --> 00:30:17,173 Speaker 3: know I'm paying you for your expertise, but I don't 673 00:30:17,213 --> 00:30:18,453 Speaker 3: know if I really want to hear if you think 674 00:30:18,493 --> 00:30:18,853 Speaker 3: it's fair. 675 00:30:19,213 --> 00:30:23,413 Speaker 2: Yeah. The interesting thing about, you know, negotiating too hard 676 00:30:23,493 --> 00:30:25,973 Speaker 2: if you're a landlord is a factor of how long 677 00:30:26,013 --> 00:30:28,053 Speaker 2: your house is empty, because if you're getting nothing in 678 00:30:28,093 --> 00:30:31,773 Speaker 2: there for a month, then you know, you're better to 679 00:30:32,053 --> 00:30:34,373 Speaker 2: drop the rent a little bit because that's a big hit. 680 00:30:34,413 --> 00:30:36,973 Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, heck you. Oh e one hundred and eighty 681 00:30:37,013 --> 00:30:38,613 Speaker 3: ten eighty is that number to call. 682 00:30:38,853 --> 00:30:41,093 Speaker 2: Been a landlord for thirty years between one and three 683 00:30:41,093 --> 00:30:43,693 Speaker 2: houses found if you give a good deal, take care 684 00:30:43,733 --> 00:30:45,773 Speaker 2: of the house and treat tenants well. Run on the 685 00:30:45,813 --> 00:30:48,533 Speaker 2: low side of the market rate. Chuse tenants carefully, you 686 00:30:48,613 --> 00:30:51,053 Speaker 2: get a good run. Have had tenants that have stayed 687 00:30:51,053 --> 00:30:52,813 Speaker 2: in the house for fifteen years? 688 00:30:53,053 --> 00:30:53,253 Speaker 1: Yeah? 689 00:30:53,333 --> 00:30:55,733 Speaker 3: Good text that right. Coming up after the break, we 690 00:30:55,813 --> 00:30:58,093 Speaker 3: have a chat to Martin. He's been a leasing agent 691 00:30:58,173 --> 00:31:00,893 Speaker 3: in Auckland with twenty two years experience, so he'll be 692 00:31:00,933 --> 00:31:03,413 Speaker 3: a good man to chat with. Great to talk to Martin, 693 00:31:03,733 --> 00:31:06,533 Speaker 3: sixteen to two. 694 00:31:05,893 --> 00:31:10,533 Speaker 1: Your home of afternoon talk and Taylor Adams afternoons call. 695 00:31:10,653 --> 00:31:13,293 Speaker 1: Oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty youth talk, z'd be. 696 00:31:13,693 --> 00:31:16,413 Speaker 3: It is fourteen to two and we're talking about negotiating 697 00:31:16,493 --> 00:31:19,013 Speaker 3: rent with your tenants or on the flip side if 698 00:31:19,013 --> 00:31:20,733 Speaker 3: you're a tenant with your landlord. Oh one hundred and 699 00:31:20,733 --> 00:31:23,373 Speaker 3: eighty ten eighty is that number to call. And we 700 00:31:23,413 --> 00:31:25,373 Speaker 3: mentioned before we got Martin on the line. He's been 701 00:31:25,373 --> 00:31:28,573 Speaker 3: a leasing agent for twenty two years in Auckland Kidda, 702 00:31:28,613 --> 00:31:30,133 Speaker 3: Martin good A. 703 00:31:30,253 --> 00:31:34,053 Speaker 2: How's it going your thoughts on the current market and 704 00:31:34,693 --> 00:31:38,573 Speaker 2: potential tenants negotiating with landlords. 705 00:31:39,453 --> 00:31:44,493 Speaker 8: The market's definitely changed. The market has corrected itself, in 706 00:31:44,533 --> 00:31:49,413 Speaker 8: my opinion, the old days of twenty thirty forty people 707 00:31:49,453 --> 00:31:55,053 Speaker 8: at open homes all buying for one property has definitely changed. 708 00:31:55,133 --> 00:31:57,573 Speaker 8: You're sort of getting one or two people to properties 709 00:31:57,613 --> 00:32:00,573 Speaker 8: now they've got plenty of choice. There's been a lot 710 00:32:00,613 --> 00:32:04,453 Speaker 8: more new builds, We're losing a lot of people overseas. 711 00:32:05,093 --> 00:32:07,733 Speaker 8: Migration numbers in New Zealand have come down. So all 712 00:32:07,733 --> 00:32:09,253 Speaker 8: of that's acting. 713 00:32:10,293 --> 00:32:11,333 Speaker 17: The demand. 714 00:32:13,173 --> 00:32:17,173 Speaker 3: Right. And so with that in mind and Chris Busship's 715 00:32:17,493 --> 00:32:21,493 Speaker 3: suggestion that tenants should negotiate, now, you think it's not 716 00:32:21,573 --> 00:32:22,413 Speaker 3: quite as easy as that. 717 00:32:24,293 --> 00:32:27,413 Speaker 8: I think that what you see a price listed for 718 00:32:27,813 --> 00:32:31,333 Speaker 8: online is not necessarily the price that it's been rented for. 719 00:32:32,813 --> 00:32:36,973 Speaker 8: And in my experience in the last probably six months, 720 00:32:37,533 --> 00:32:41,813 Speaker 8: a lot of tenants will come to a viewing with 721 00:32:42,093 --> 00:32:44,173 Speaker 8: the negotiation in their back pocket. Now some will be 722 00:32:44,253 --> 00:32:47,053 Speaker 8: very upfront about it right from the word going. I mean, 723 00:32:47,413 --> 00:32:50,413 Speaker 8: I listed a property about three weeks ago and it 724 00:32:50,453 --> 00:32:52,613 Speaker 8: was online for four minutes and two people run me 725 00:32:52,653 --> 00:32:57,373 Speaker 8: to ask if it was negotiable. So that's a new 726 00:32:57,413 --> 00:33:02,493 Speaker 8: thing to have such a quick response about the renting 727 00:33:02,533 --> 00:33:05,213 Speaker 8: negotiable as opposed to people coming and seeing the property 728 00:33:05,613 --> 00:33:07,973 Speaker 8: if they like it, weighing it up with other options, 729 00:33:08,013 --> 00:33:10,213 Speaker 8: and then saying, hey, would you consider twenty thirty dollars 730 00:33:10,253 --> 00:33:10,973 Speaker 8: less a week? 731 00:33:12,453 --> 00:33:12,573 Speaker 12: Now? 732 00:33:12,573 --> 00:33:15,053 Speaker 2: It wasn't so long ago, Martin that we were hearing 733 00:33:15,173 --> 00:33:19,013 Speaker 2: stories in the news of you know, forty to fifty 734 00:33:19,293 --> 00:33:23,573 Speaker 2: people turning up to rent properties and a huge amount 735 00:33:23,573 --> 00:33:28,773 Speaker 2: of pressure on the supply. Everyone needs someone somewhere to live. 736 00:33:28,893 --> 00:33:31,613 Speaker 2: So what's happened there is there is there less people 737 00:33:31,693 --> 00:33:34,613 Speaker 2: looking for somewhere to live, or what's happened with the 738 00:33:35,093 --> 00:33:36,293 Speaker 2: just the numbers pressure. 739 00:33:37,693 --> 00:33:40,373 Speaker 8: So there's a few things that have changed. For instance, 740 00:33:41,013 --> 00:33:44,733 Speaker 8: in my area, we do a lot of rentals for flatty, 741 00:33:44,813 --> 00:33:46,733 Speaker 8: so you know, groups say twenty to thirty years old 742 00:33:46,773 --> 00:33:48,413 Speaker 8: with they might want a three or four bedroom house. 743 00:33:48,973 --> 00:33:52,893 Speaker 8: A lot of those houses or those flatting situations are 744 00:33:53,413 --> 00:33:56,533 Speaker 8: breaking up, and what I'm hearing is they're all going 745 00:33:56,573 --> 00:34:00,133 Speaker 8: to you know, Australia because it's you get paid more 746 00:34:00,133 --> 00:34:06,933 Speaker 8: money or h yeah, yeah, I mean, or people are 747 00:34:06,973 --> 00:34:10,893 Speaker 8: saying that they're saving for a house, so they want 748 00:34:10,933 --> 00:34:16,573 Speaker 8: to they want to spend less. Or people are able 749 00:34:16,573 --> 00:34:18,853 Speaker 8: to afford to get mortgages now, I mean, since the 750 00:34:18,973 --> 00:34:22,733 Speaker 8: truth States has come back down, people are now finding 751 00:34:22,973 --> 00:34:25,893 Speaker 8: that they can buy when maybe six months ago or 752 00:34:25,933 --> 00:34:30,692 Speaker 8: a year ago, they couldn't afford to buy. And so 753 00:34:30,733 --> 00:34:32,813 Speaker 8: I am dealing with quite a few lease breaks at 754 00:34:32,813 --> 00:34:35,213 Speaker 8: the moment. So those are people who have maybe signed 755 00:34:35,253 --> 00:34:38,773 Speaker 8: up for a twelve month lease that have suddenly found 756 00:34:38,813 --> 00:34:42,293 Speaker 8: their ideal home they've brought it. The only sort of 757 00:34:42,293 --> 00:34:46,333 Speaker 8: advice I give around that is, before you pulled the 758 00:34:46,373 --> 00:34:49,213 Speaker 8: trigger on a purchase, you do need to sort of 759 00:34:49,213 --> 00:34:51,133 Speaker 8: talk to your landward or your property manage it to 760 00:34:51,213 --> 00:34:53,933 Speaker 8: gauge how hard it's going to be to re rent 761 00:34:53,973 --> 00:34:56,093 Speaker 8: that property you know within your lease, to find someone 762 00:34:56,133 --> 00:34:59,573 Speaker 8: to take over. You know, the last thing you want 763 00:34:59,693 --> 00:35:01,853 Speaker 8: is to be paying a brand new mortgage and still 764 00:35:01,853 --> 00:35:05,172 Speaker 8: paying rent because the landold or the property manager hasn't 765 00:35:05,173 --> 00:35:09,093 Speaker 8: been able to replace you with some who's willing to 766 00:35:09,093 --> 00:35:12,613 Speaker 8: pay what you're paying. You might have rented it in 767 00:35:12,653 --> 00:35:15,333 Speaker 8: February and you want to break your lease in August, 768 00:35:15,413 --> 00:35:17,493 Speaker 8: and it's a completely different market. It could be, you know, 769 00:35:17,533 --> 00:35:20,013 Speaker 8: worth one hundred dollars less. So we do see a 770 00:35:20,053 --> 00:35:21,733 Speaker 8: lot of that, and it's a lot of pressure on people. 771 00:35:22,693 --> 00:35:26,933 Speaker 2: How the things to said, Hello, rent bidding is illegal? 772 00:35:26,973 --> 00:35:30,853 Speaker 2: What do they mean by that? So what can landlords 773 00:35:30,893 --> 00:35:32,813 Speaker 2: do around around the rent? They can't go around the 774 00:35:32,893 --> 00:35:36,973 Speaker 2: room and go find the person that's willing to pay 775 00:35:36,973 --> 00:35:38,053 Speaker 2: the most. Is that correct? 776 00:35:38,133 --> 00:35:38,293 Speaker 7: Man? 777 00:35:39,653 --> 00:35:40,893 Speaker 17: Look, people do it. 778 00:35:41,013 --> 00:35:46,573 Speaker 8: We do not. It's not with legal but it's certainly 779 00:35:46,653 --> 00:35:50,213 Speaker 8: not something that we would practice. If we advertise a 780 00:35:50,213 --> 00:35:53,093 Speaker 8: property for seven hundred dollars a week and ten people 781 00:35:53,133 --> 00:35:56,853 Speaker 8: turn up and there's five applications and one person says, hey, 782 00:35:56,853 --> 00:36:00,973 Speaker 8: I'll pay seven to fifty, I would normally go back 783 00:36:00,973 --> 00:36:03,573 Speaker 8: to them and say, look, that's actually not okay because 784 00:36:04,013 --> 00:36:06,732 Speaker 8: all the other people that have applied, they've applied within 785 00:36:06,773 --> 00:36:11,973 Speaker 8: their budget. Now before it sort of became illegal, I 786 00:36:12,013 --> 00:36:15,493 Speaker 8: guess you may. I mean, the only fair thing to 787 00:36:15,533 --> 00:36:17,373 Speaker 8: do if you were going to do that, which I wouldn't, 788 00:36:17,373 --> 00:36:19,333 Speaker 8: would be to go back to all the interested parties 789 00:36:19,373 --> 00:36:22,213 Speaker 8: and say, hey, look, someone's offered an extra fifty dollars. 790 00:36:22,253 --> 00:36:23,893 Speaker 8: Are you able to match that? But I think that's 791 00:36:23,933 --> 00:36:27,493 Speaker 8: unfair because you've in good faith, come to a property 792 00:36:27,973 --> 00:36:31,933 Speaker 8: that's listed at a certain price because that's within your budget, 793 00:36:32,213 --> 00:36:34,933 Speaker 8: and all of a sudden you're being bumped off your 794 00:36:34,933 --> 00:36:37,893 Speaker 8: perch because someone's got more pain power. And it could 795 00:36:37,933 --> 00:36:40,893 Speaker 8: be because they've got better jobs. It could be a 796 00:36:41,013 --> 00:36:43,093 Speaker 8: group compared to a family, you know what I mean. 797 00:36:44,053 --> 00:36:49,333 Speaker 8: So I think that in order to gain people's trust 798 00:36:49,413 --> 00:36:55,013 Speaker 8: and respect, you need to be decent. You know, the 799 00:36:55,053 --> 00:36:55,933 Speaker 8: price is the price. 800 00:36:56,293 --> 00:36:58,692 Speaker 3: Yeah, you sound like a great leasing agent. I'm glad 801 00:36:58,733 --> 00:36:59,013 Speaker 3: to hear that. 802 00:36:59,693 --> 00:37:02,973 Speaker 2: Yeah, friendly face of leasing agents there, Martin. If you're 803 00:37:03,013 --> 00:37:05,172 Speaker 2: lucky enough to deal with them, then good for you. 804 00:37:05,213 --> 00:37:07,013 Speaker 3: What a good man.

We'll share that next. 810 00:37:19,173 --> 00:37:20,133 Speaker 2: It wasn't elite in the sack. 811 00:37:20,213 --> 00:37:21,133 Speaker 3: Weather eight to two. 812 00:37:22,413 --> 00:37:25,973 Speaker 1: Matt Heath, Taylor Adams taking your calls on eight hundred 813 00:37:25,973 --> 00:37:28,493 Speaker 1: and eighty ten eighty.

This is on the back of Housing Minister 850 00:39:08,693 --> 00:39:10,813 Speaker 3: Chris Bishop. He said a little bit earlier this week 851 00:39:10,853 --> 00:39:13,573 Speaker 3: after Select Committee that with rent prices down or the 852 00:39:13,573 --> 00:39:16,373 Speaker 3: market down the lowest and two years in September, now 853 00:39:16,533 --> 00:39:18,652 Speaker 3: is the time to go to your landlord and say, hey, 854 00:39:18,733 --> 00:39:20,133 Speaker 3: do you want to give me a discount because I 855 00:39:20,173 --> 00:39:22,013 Speaker 3: think it's overpriced. Can you hear your thoughts on Oh 856 00:39:22,013 --> 00:39:24,253 Speaker 3: eight hundred and eighty ten eighty and the text number 857 00:39:24,333 --> 00:39:25,333 Speaker 3: nine two nine two. 858 00:39:26,333 --> 00:39:32,013 Speaker 2: No more housing crisis then national have solved that one says, rees, well, 859 00:39:32,293 --> 00:39:34,933 Speaker 2: does seem to be a drop off in rents, otherwise 860 00:39:34,973 --> 00:39:35,933 Speaker 2: we wouldn't be having the story. 861 00:39:36,213 --> 00:39:38,573 Speaker 3: Yep, and haven't heard that housing crisis for a long time. 862 00:39:38,613 --> 00:39:40,652 Speaker 2: The rents was a serious issue in the news not 863 00:39:40,693 --> 00:39:42,933 Speaker 2: so long ago. I have rented in Ponce Toby Auckland 864 00:39:42,973 --> 00:39:45,173 Speaker 2: for fifteen years, says Steve, and the landlord has not 865 00:39:45,253 --> 00:39:48,533 Speaker 2: increased the rent one dollar. However, she has advised me 866 00:39:48,573 --> 00:39:50,493 Speaker 2: that the property VALUEO has gone up three hundred percent, 867 00:39:50,533 --> 00:39:52,933 Speaker 2: and therefore, when she eventually goes into a retirement village 868 00:39:52,973 --> 00:39:54,813 Speaker 2: or dies, the capitol game will be far more than 869 00:39:54,813 --> 00:40:00,573 Speaker 2: the increasing the rent and possibly having unreliable tenants. The 870 00:40:00,613 --> 00:40:02,573 Speaker 2: six says, Hey, guys, I'm a small landlord and I 871 00:40:02,613 --> 00:40:04,853 Speaker 2: can't afford to keep lowering the rent when tenants try 872 00:40:04,893 --> 00:40:07,173 Speaker 2: to negotiate it down. If that continues, they'll have no 873 00:40:07,253 --> 00:40:10,493 Speaker 2: choice but to sell. When small landlords are pushed out 874 00:40:10,573 --> 00:40:13,692 Speaker 2: large corporate investments, vistas buy properties in bulk, and they 875 00:40:13,773 --> 00:40:17,013 Speaker 2: end up controlling the rental market, often driving prices even higher. 876 00:40:17,213 --> 00:40:19,253 Speaker 2: In the long run, it has the opposite effect of 877 00:40:19,253 --> 00:40:24,213 Speaker 2: what people oh sorry, the opposite effect of what people want. 878 00:40:24,333 --> 00:40:30,293 Speaker 2: Cheers Dave. No negotiation. My tenants are great, but I 879 00:40:30,333 --> 00:40:33,093 Speaker 2: have had to spend thousands on healthy home standards, plus 880 00:40:33,173 --> 00:40:35,732 Speaker 2: huge rates and insurance increases year on year. Considering selling, 881 00:40:35,773 --> 00:40:40,253 Speaker 2: there's no capital gain now and poor yield. That's from Mark. 882 00:40:40,773 --> 00:40:43,493 Speaker 2: The six is property managers are dirt bags. The higher 883 00:40:43,533 --> 00:40:47,053 Speaker 2: the rent are, the higher the profits. So yeah, we're 884 00:40:47,053 --> 00:40:51,732 Speaker 2: talking about negotiating with a soft rental market. When you're 885 00:40:51,773 --> 00:40:55,013 Speaker 2: going into a new place, is it wise to read 886 00:40:55,013 --> 00:40:59,133 Speaker 2: around and find out what the market rate is and say, ya, Yaked, 887 00:40:59,333 --> 00:41:00,853 Speaker 2: just shave a little bit off there, buddy, Just a 888 00:41:00,893 --> 00:41:01,773 Speaker 2: little bit off there there. 889 00:41:01,653 --> 00:41:06,253 Speaker 3: Buddy, undred eighty ten eighty. Now to risk the elite ticks. 890 00:41:06,013 --> 00:41:10,133 Speaker 2: I've I've got to finish this plashing story. Okay, this 891 00:41:10,253 --> 00:41:15,253 Speaker 2: person said all landlords are scum. Only an elite like 892 00:41:15,373 --> 00:41:18,973 Speaker 2: you met would go into bat and pump up the 893 00:41:19,013 --> 00:41:22,213 Speaker 2: tires of landlords. And I asked the text to just 894 00:41:22,293 --> 00:41:25,053 Speaker 2: for a little bit of clarification, what do you mean elite, 895 00:41:25,813 --> 00:41:28,733 Speaker 2: elite broadcaster, elite in the sack?

So if it does get if there's things 993 00:46:19,613 --> 00:46:21,853 Speaker 3: that pop up, we're not at loggerheads, if you know 994 00:46:21,893 --> 00:46:24,613 Speaker 3: what I mean. They're there to protect that relationship so 995 00:46:24,733 --> 00:46:27,533 Speaker 3: things stay on an even cure when there's problems. 996 00:46:28,413 --> 00:46:32,693 Speaker 20: Yes, yes, well we did have one problem and we 997 00:46:32,813 --> 00:46:36,772 Speaker 20: did have to pick somebody else and she stopped paying 998 00:46:36,813 --> 00:46:39,653 Speaker 20: the rents of water and everything and damage the property 999 00:46:40,573 --> 00:46:42,693 Speaker 20: and the real estate agent had to take it to 1000 00:46:42,773 --> 00:46:47,933 Speaker 20: the district Tribunion to get the the water and the 1001 00:46:48,293 --> 00:46:52,213 Speaker 20: areas and rent. But they forgot to get the damages. 1002 00:46:52,733 --> 00:46:55,813 Speaker 20: So we were out of pocket for that because they 1003 00:46:57,293 --> 00:46:59,453 Speaker 20: get bond. You know, I don't know if they even 1004 00:46:59,533 --> 00:47:02,253 Speaker 20: go to the bond back to them that we were 1005 00:47:02,333 --> 00:47:04,413 Speaker 20: out of pocket about two and a half thousand dollars 1006 00:47:04,413 --> 00:47:07,053 Speaker 20: worth of damage that they could. 1007 00:47:08,453 --> 00:47:08,573 Speaker 11: Know. 1008 00:47:09,013 --> 00:47:11,772 Speaker 20: So the real estate agent woman working for us, right, 1009 00:47:11,853 --> 00:47:15,413 Speaker 20: they got the water and the areas and the rent. 1010 00:47:16,053 --> 00:47:21,253 Speaker 20: That's not to fix the damages or my clean up 1011 00:47:21,333 --> 00:47:25,213 Speaker 20: the mess that they left. I did all that. So yeah, 1012 00:47:25,293 --> 00:47:28,293 Speaker 20: so some when you you know, when you've been loyal 1013 00:47:28,413 --> 00:47:31,133 Speaker 20: to a company, and when they do that, yes, I 1014 00:47:31,213 --> 00:47:34,573 Speaker 20: do have to. But as a stay to try and 1015 00:47:34,613 --> 00:47:38,453 Speaker 20: work out how to transfer the money over from the 1016 00:47:38,493 --> 00:47:40,573 Speaker 20: Tennessee thing that I will have to do it.

Chris. 1043 00:48:55,213 --> 00:48:58,212 Speaker 3: Yeah, we love you already, mate, Thank you very much. 1044 00:48:58,453 --> 00:48:58,573 Speaker 8: Hey. 1045 00:48:58,613 --> 00:49:01,252 Speaker 6: Look, so I've been renting for the last twenty years, 1046 00:49:01,293 --> 00:49:05,973 Speaker 6: still renting, and I've seen the market change up and 1047 00:49:06,013 --> 00:49:09,973 Speaker 6: down the net time we've got on from when we 1048 00:49:10,013 --> 00:49:14,453 Speaker 6: first started renting, renting off landlords, and then when we 1049 00:49:14,533 --> 00:49:18,093 Speaker 6: moved into a place about five years ago, we went 1050 00:49:18,213 --> 00:49:24,373 Speaker 6: with a leading agent, so within this was before they 1051 00:49:24,453 --> 00:49:27,093 Speaker 6: changed the law where they kind of just put the 1052 00:49:27,133 --> 00:49:30,653 Speaker 6: rent up when they wanted. So within we signed a 1053 00:49:30,693 --> 00:49:33,772 Speaker 6: one year lease and within four months of being in there, 1054 00:49:34,053 --> 00:49:35,973 Speaker 6: we've got a letter through saying the rent was going 1055 00:49:36,053 --> 00:49:39,973 Speaker 6: to go up, which at the time we thought, well, jeez, 1056 00:49:40,013 --> 00:49:42,853 Speaker 6: we've only been here this little while, you know, and 1057 00:49:42,893 --> 00:49:45,173 Speaker 6: it only went up by fifty dollars, and we thought, okay, 1058 00:49:45,453 --> 00:49:48,013 Speaker 6: that's that's fair enough, you know. But you know, we 1059 00:49:48,053 --> 00:49:51,853 Speaker 6: went into that place at a two ninety five and 1060 00:49:51,893 --> 00:49:54,333 Speaker 6: when we moved out it was five ninety five, and 1061 00:49:54,373 --> 00:49:57,533 Speaker 6: that was over four years that went up that much. So, 1062 00:49:58,453 --> 00:50:03,172 Speaker 6: you know, being with these leading agents, they feel really 1063 00:50:03,253 --> 00:50:07,292 Speaker 6: predatory to me. So it was almost on the day 1064 00:50:07,333 --> 00:50:10,013 Speaker 6: that they could issue you was the email to say 1065 00:50:10,013 --> 00:50:14,133 Speaker 6: it was going up. There was one, and you knew 1066 00:50:14,173 --> 00:50:16,732 Speaker 6: it was coming, you know, you just had that vibe 1067 00:50:16,773 --> 00:50:19,013 Speaker 6: that was coming. Sure enough, within a couple of days 1068 00:50:19,053 --> 00:50:21,893 Speaker 6: you had an email that's going up, fifty bucks, sixty bucks, 1069 00:50:21,893 --> 00:50:24,733 Speaker 6: seventy bucks, whatever, it was going up, you know. And 1070 00:50:24,773 --> 00:50:31,893 Speaker 6: when I questioned after about the third one, the leading 1071 00:50:31,933 --> 00:50:37,493 Speaker 6: agent the property manager said, look where there's a law 1072 00:50:37,533 --> 00:50:40,493 Speaker 6: that says we can only put it up if the 1073 00:50:40,573 --> 00:50:43,253 Speaker 6: average price in the area you. 1074 00:50:43,333 --> 00:50:43,732 Speaker 18: Live in. 1075 00:50:45,493 --> 00:50:49,373 Speaker 6: Is rising. So what I would be really interested to 1076 00:50:49,453 --> 00:50:53,373 Speaker 6: hear today is when you are talking to a leading 1077 00:50:53,373 --> 00:50:56,853 Speaker 6: agent again and stuff, if you could find out if 1078 00:50:57,453 --> 00:51:01,293 Speaker 6: that average they take is off their own stock. So 1079 00:51:01,813 --> 00:51:04,692 Speaker 6: let's say like we're in Hamilton, for example, Let's say 1080 00:51:04,733 --> 00:51:08,853 Speaker 6: they have thirty hellses that they let and have to neast. 1081 00:51:10,133 --> 00:51:13,173 Speaker 6: When they gate that average rent in, the average increase 1082 00:51:13,213 --> 00:51:15,253 Speaker 6: and you get the letter saying, you know, we've looked 1083 00:51:15,293 --> 00:51:17,772 Speaker 6: at the average and it's going up. Are they looking 1084 00:51:17,813 --> 00:51:20,413 Speaker 6: at all the all the houses in that area or 1085 00:51:20,493 --> 00:51:23,173 Speaker 6: are they just looking at ones on their books, Because 1086 00:51:23,173 --> 00:51:26,893 Speaker 6: it seems to me that it's obviously, as you call her, 1087 00:51:26,893 --> 00:51:30,493 Speaker 6: a ludacy. Before they're getting a percentage, it's in their 1088 00:51:30,533 --> 00:51:33,333 Speaker 6: interest for that percentage to creep up all the time. 1089 00:51:34,093 --> 00:51:39,173 Speaker 6: And I've actually rung rung landlords, got hold of their information, 1090 00:51:39,253 --> 00:51:41,893 Speaker 6: wrung them and said, look, this is the third time 1091 00:51:41,933 --> 00:51:44,133 Speaker 6: you put the rent up. Why are you putting it up? 1092 00:51:44,173 --> 00:51:46,293 Speaker 6: And they said to me, I didn't even know it 1093 00:51:46,333 --> 00:51:47,853 Speaker 6: was going up. What are you talking about? 1094 00:51:49,213 --> 00:51:50,732 Speaker 3: I see what you're saying there. And I know that's 1095 00:51:50,733 --> 00:51:52,773 Speaker 3: been the perception that if the market, you know, the 1096 00:51:52,813 --> 00:51:55,893 Speaker 3: whole market goes up inch by inch, then everybody pays more, 1097 00:51:55,893 --> 00:51:58,413 Speaker 3: whether that value is there or not. But just in 1098 00:51:58,453 --> 00:52:00,573 Speaker 3: our own circumstances, Christ I'm just trying to think that 1099 00:52:00,653 --> 00:52:02,652 Speaker 3: through that when we floated it and put it to 1100 00:52:02,693 --> 00:52:05,293 Speaker 3: the market and it was at a certain certain price 1101 00:52:05,893 --> 00:52:08,933 Speaker 3: and we got no bite, so instantly we knew that 1102 00:52:09,013 --> 00:52:11,013 Speaker 3: we've got to lower that because it was it was 1103 00:52:11,013 --> 00:52:13,453 Speaker 3: overprized by the property manager. So to us, that was 1104 00:52:13,533 --> 00:52:15,813 Speaker 3: kind of testing the market because we didn't know. We 1105 00:52:15,933 --> 00:52:19,253 Speaker 3: put the expertise in the property manager's hands and we 1106 00:52:19,333 --> 00:52:21,653 Speaker 3: got it wrong the first time, and we adjusted accordingly. 1107 00:52:22,773 --> 00:52:26,293 Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, but it just seems from a rental's point 1108 00:52:26,293 --> 00:52:29,573 Speaker 6: of view, it just seems like it's been driven by them. 1109 00:52:29,813 --> 00:52:31,253 Speaker 6: And we found it out, like I said, when we 1110 00:52:31,293 --> 00:52:33,853 Speaker 6: called the landford and say, hey, you know you've made 1111 00:52:33,893 --> 00:52:36,933 Speaker 6: no improvements. We keep it spotless. We're good tenants, and 1112 00:52:36,973 --> 00:52:41,013 Speaker 6: we know we're good tenants. And their reaction is why 1113 00:52:41,053 --> 00:52:42,973 Speaker 6: didn't know it was going up? I didn't instruct them 1114 00:52:42,973 --> 00:52:46,733 Speaker 6: to do that. So obviously there's three parties involved in 1115 00:52:47,013 --> 00:52:50,173 Speaker 6: the rental, and one of them is driving the rental 1116 00:52:50,213 --> 00:52:52,893 Speaker 6: increases because they've a vested interest in it. And I 1117 00:52:53,013 --> 00:52:55,613 Speaker 6: just feel that that's, you know, a little bit predatory. 1118 00:52:56,053 --> 00:53:00,013 Speaker 6: And when you hear comments from Chris Bishop saying, oh, 1119 00:53:00,053 --> 00:53:02,453 Speaker 6: it's a great time to negotiaate, I feel like he's 1120 00:53:02,453 --> 00:53:05,733 Speaker 6: living on bloody Mars, because in twenty years I have 1121 00:53:05,973 --> 00:53:10,172 Speaker 6: never ever had the option of bringing a landlord and saying, look, 1122 00:53:10,213 --> 00:53:12,373 Speaker 6: you need to drop their into that. They just wouldn't 1123 00:53:12,493 --> 00:53:15,733 Speaker 6: ever do it, you know, because they put brushes on 1124 00:53:15,973 --> 00:53:18,373 Speaker 6: them for mortgage payments. They've got to have a little 1125 00:53:18,373 --> 00:53:20,813 Speaker 6: bit in the in the kissy there in case, you know, 1126 00:53:21,013 --> 00:53:23,613 Speaker 6: quite verse or something like that. But I think I 1127 00:53:23,693 --> 00:53:25,613 Speaker 6: think comments from Chris Bush up by that are just 1128 00:53:25,733 --> 00:53:31,853 Speaker 6: absolutely like just unbelievable. You know, it just wouldn't happen. 1129 00:53:31,133 --> 00:53:31,253 Speaker 5: Now. 1130 00:53:32,773 --> 00:53:36,773 Speaker 21: First, sorry, I was going to say, first up, if 1131 00:53:36,813 --> 00:53:38,773 Speaker 21: that's if that's you nervous, Chris, I've got to say, 1132 00:53:38,773 --> 00:53:41,213 Speaker 21: you're a high level operate, Yeah, you know, this is you, 1133 00:53:41,333 --> 00:53:43,613 Speaker 21: how you operate, and when you're nervous, then I got 1134 00:53:43,653 --> 00:53:45,773 Speaker 21: to say, well. 1135 00:53:45,853 --> 00:53:47,533 Speaker 2: You're leading a lot of things. 1136 00:53:47,533 --> 00:53:50,093 Speaker 17: By the sounds of it, I'm starting to sound like 1137 00:53:50,093 --> 00:53:50,613 Speaker 17: a fascist. 1138 00:53:53,013 --> 00:53:55,133 Speaker 2: One thing I would just say, though, Chris, is there 1139 00:53:55,213 --> 00:53:59,613 Speaker 2: is a higher than zero percentage chance that the landlord, 1140 00:53:59,613 --> 00:54:03,533 Speaker 2: when you talk directly to them, will say what they 1141 00:54:03,653 --> 00:54:05,853 Speaker 2: want you to hear. And one of the reasons why 1142 00:54:05,893 --> 00:54:09,533 Speaker 2: they get their property managed because they want someone else 1143 00:54:09,573 --> 00:54:11,613 Speaker 2: to be the bad guy so they don't have to 1144 00:54:11,653 --> 00:54:14,373 Speaker 2: deal with confrontation. So there is there is that possibility, 1145 00:54:14,373 --> 00:54:14,692 Speaker 2: did you think. 1146 00:54:14,733 --> 00:54:17,733 Speaker 6: Ye, it's almost like a shield, isn't it between the bodies, 1147 00:54:17,773 --> 00:54:21,293 Speaker 6: you know. And look, I've had some really good property 1148 00:54:21,293 --> 00:54:25,053 Speaker 6: managers and and some shocking ones over the years, but 1149 00:54:26,213 --> 00:54:29,813 Speaker 6: like the leading agents themselves work really hard.

We are joined by water Safety New 1238 00:58:47,493 --> 00:58:51,573 Speaker 3: Zealand Chief Executive Glenn Scanlon. Glenn, thank you very much 1239 00:58:51,573 --> 00:58:54,973 Speaker 3: for your time this afternoon. Oh just had a problem 1240 00:58:55,013 --> 00:58:56,013 Speaker 3: with the phone. Got you now? 1241 00:58:56,133 --> 00:58:56,253 Speaker 8: Hi? 1242 00:58:56,293 --> 00:58:59,733 Speaker 2: You again, struggling to click the phone on there. Welcome 1243 00:58:59,733 --> 00:59:02,893 Speaker 2: to the show, Glenn. Why have adult boat ees historically 1244 00:59:03,453 --> 00:59:06,453 Speaker 2: resisted compulsory life jacket rules in New Zealand? 1245 00:59:06,453 --> 00:59:08,173 Speaker 1: Glenn, Well, I don't. 1246 00:59:08,013 --> 00:59:10,933 Speaker 22: Know historically resisted. I think what we've got is a 1247 00:59:10,973 --> 00:59:14,053 Speaker 22: situation where we've got a national law at the moment 1248 00:59:14,133 --> 00:59:17,333 Speaker 22: that is quite weak, and then we've got a bunch 1249 00:59:17,373 --> 00:59:21,093 Speaker 22: of regional rules which will do slightly different things. And 1250 00:59:21,173 --> 00:59:26,093 Speaker 22: I think potentially some people are just simply confused. I 1251 00:59:26,773 --> 00:59:28,373 Speaker 22: don't have all the regional rules in front of me, 1252 00:59:28,453 --> 00:59:31,253 Speaker 22: but I'm confused trying to understand them myself. And I 1253 00:59:31,293 --> 00:59:33,133 Speaker 22: don't think that's a good place for anyone to be in. 1254 00:59:33,693 --> 00:59:35,813 Speaker 22: I think there's also just a little bit probably of 1255 00:59:36,053 --> 00:59:39,573 Speaker 22: sort of ingrained behavior that key we know she'll be right, 1256 00:59:39,653 --> 00:59:42,333 Speaker 22: attitude that we've taken too many things. 1257 00:59:43,013 --> 00:59:46,853 Speaker 2: What is the evidence that supports a universal national standard? 1258 00:59:47,733 --> 00:59:50,253 Speaker 22: Well, I suppose if you look at the data and 1259 00:59:50,293 --> 00:59:54,013 Speaker 22: we've got quite a lot. Since the year two, four 1260 00:59:54,093 --> 00:59:58,493 Speaker 22: hundred and twenty three people have drowned on craft or boats, 1261 00:59:58,533 --> 01:00:01,053 Speaker 22: nearly eighty percent of those who're not wearing a life jacket, 1262 01:00:01,533 --> 01:00:04,133 Speaker 22: So that's three hundred and twenty three people, which gives 1263 01:00:04,133 --> 01:00:07,893 Speaker 22: you a good idea. In the last last year there 1264 01:00:07,933 --> 01:00:11,813 Speaker 22: were people, oh sorry, eighteen and this year sofo, we've 1265 01:00:11,813 --> 01:00:15,253 Speaker 22: had eleven who weren't wearing a life jacket at the time. 1266 01:00:15,293 --> 01:00:17,773 Speaker 22: I think the trick is no one expects to be 1267 01:00:17,853 --> 01:00:20,333 Speaker 22: in the water and be in trouble, and by the 1268 01:00:20,373 --> 01:00:24,253 Speaker 22: time you're in the water and in trouble, it's too 1269 01:00:24,293 --> 01:00:25,533 Speaker 22: late to find that life jacket. 1270 01:00:26,253 --> 01:00:28,813 Speaker 2: But that can that be blamed on regional by laws 1271 01:00:29,293 --> 01:00:32,133 Speaker 2: though don't most people know what's happening in the area. 1272 01:00:32,893 --> 01:00:35,733 Speaker 22: Yeah, yeah, I think that contributes to the confusion. I 1273 01:00:35,773 --> 01:00:39,253 Speaker 22: think there's also the national law stool, which is weak, 1274 01:00:39,333 --> 01:00:42,093 Speaker 22: and you know, it says that life jackets have to 1275 01:00:42,133 --> 01:00:45,293 Speaker 22: be carried and worn only when the skipper deems it 1276 01:00:45,413 --> 01:00:49,493 Speaker 22: necessary or in some slightly high risk or high risk areas, 1277 01:00:49,533 --> 01:00:52,373 Speaker 22: like when you're crossing a bar and stuff. So I 1278 01:00:52,413 --> 01:00:55,613 Speaker 22: think you know, what we're asking for is or seeking 1279 01:00:55,693 --> 01:00:59,013 Speaker 22: when the draft bill goes before the ZE Committee and 1280 01:00:59,053 --> 01:01:01,973 Speaker 22: then they do the deliberations. It is actually a common 1281 01:01:02,013 --> 01:01:04,693 Speaker 22: sense approach which would make it really easy for everyone 1282 01:01:04,733 --> 01:01:07,693 Speaker 22: to understand what they need to do. Ultimately, it is 1283 01:01:07,733 --> 01:01:11,413 Speaker 22: about behavior you change, and we think you'll get more 1284 01:01:11,453 --> 01:01:14,413 Speaker 22: of that if the law or a change law of 1285 01:01:14,493 --> 01:01:17,853 Speaker 22: plays to people who are over fifteen, not just those 1286 01:01:17,853 --> 01:01:19,573 Speaker 22: who are under it. And we think it's a great start, 1287 01:01:20,173 --> 01:01:22,373 Speaker 22: but we'd just love to see the opportunity to grab 1288 01:01:22,373 --> 01:01:25,053 Speaker 22: because it probably isn't. Once in a generation chance we 1289 01:01:25,133 --> 01:01:27,413 Speaker 22: saw it was the sworming paul fencing laws and that 1290 01:01:27,493 --> 01:01:29,453 Speaker 22: to our child around is by almost eighty percent. 1291 01:01:30,413 --> 01:01:33,213 Speaker 3: Do you think there is pressure on recreational skippers if 1292 01:01:33,253 --> 01:01:35,973 Speaker 3: they've got them on board as the regulation requires them, 1293 01:01:35,973 --> 01:01:37,693 Speaker 3: but then they ask their mates to maybe put on 1294 01:01:37,733 --> 01:01:39,373 Speaker 3: a life jacket and get a bit of stick. Does 1295 01:01:39,413 --> 01:01:41,213 Speaker 3: that still exist out there? Do you think? 1296 01:01:42,053 --> 01:01:42,213 Speaker 23: Well? 1297 01:01:42,253 --> 01:01:44,493 Speaker 22: I think you could probably apply that to many many 1298 01:01:44,533 --> 01:01:47,293 Speaker 22: social situations actually, and yeah, I think it probably does. 1299 01:01:47,453 --> 01:01:47,573 Speaker 15: Look. 1300 01:01:47,613 --> 01:01:51,613 Speaker 22: I was on Instagram this morning before work on looking 1301 01:01:51,653 --> 01:01:53,613 Speaker 22: at some pictures of an old work colleague who was 1302 01:01:53,973 --> 01:01:57,653 Speaker 22: out on holiday somewhere and all of the people on 1303 01:01:57,693 --> 01:02:00,573 Speaker 22: the boat none of them were in a life jacket, 1304 01:02:01,293 --> 01:02:05,413 Speaker 22: and I thought, ah gee, I wish you all had 1305 01:02:05,453 --> 01:02:06,133 Speaker 22: a life jacket on. 1306 01:02:06,333 --> 01:02:07,213 Speaker 17: That would be great. 1307 01:02:07,293 --> 01:02:09,213 Speaker 22: I haven't measured them yet, probably will later. 1308 01:02:11,093 --> 01:02:14,173 Speaker 2: As a blanket ban a bit blunt. What about when 1309 01:02:14,173 --> 01:02:16,093 Speaker 2: you're anchored in a bay and your kids are swimming 1310 01:02:16,093 --> 01:02:16,933 Speaker 2: off the boat? 1311 01:02:17,253 --> 01:02:19,853 Speaker 22: Yeah, yeah, yeah, So we're talking about what we're saying 1312 01:02:19,853 --> 01:02:22,013 Speaker 22: it should be when diesels are underway. 1313 01:02:22,213 --> 01:02:22,413 Speaker 2: Yep. 1314 01:02:22,453 --> 01:02:25,613 Speaker 22: So if you're if you're anchored, Arthur, if you're a porch, 1315 01:02:26,093 --> 01:02:28,733 Speaker 22: if you're in a berth, we're not saying you should 1316 01:02:28,773 --> 01:02:31,773 Speaker 22: have a life jacket on. Then I think that makes 1317 01:02:31,813 --> 01:02:34,693 Speaker 22: reasonable sense. It is when you're out and out in 1318 01:02:34,733 --> 01:02:38,213 Speaker 22: the water and underway, because that's mostly when trouble occurs, 1319 01:02:38,613 --> 01:02:39,933 Speaker 22: when when boats are in motion. 1320 01:02:40,493 --> 01:02:42,333 Speaker 2: Can you go back in Timelin and tell my dad that, 1321 01:02:42,373 --> 01:02:44,213 Speaker 2: because he used to make us put our life jackets 1322 01:02:44,253 --> 01:02:46,213 Speaker 2: on when we got out of the car before we'd 1323 01:02:46,213 --> 01:02:50,053 Speaker 2: even back the trailer, the trailer sailor into the water. 1324 01:02:50,693 --> 01:02:52,413 Speaker 22: He sounds like a very sensible berth. 1325 01:02:52,373 --> 01:02:55,933 Speaker 3: Good skipper took it seriously. Yeah, it's a lot of responsibility. 1326 01:02:55,813 --> 01:02:58,413 Speaker 2: As some big old orange life jackets back there, I 1327 01:02:58,533 --> 01:02:59,253 Speaker 2: tell you. 1328 01:02:59,053 --> 01:03:01,013 Speaker 3: Yeah, he should have made your weather before you got 1329 01:03:01,013 --> 01:03:02,253 Speaker 3: in the car on the way to the boat ramp, 1330 01:03:02,293 --> 01:03:05,213 Speaker 3: to be honest as on too. 1331 01:03:05,373 --> 01:03:07,133 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you're right, if he had his way, we'd 1332 01:03:07,133 --> 01:03:08,173 Speaker 2: have our life checkers on in the bar. 1333 01:03:08,373 --> 01:03:11,413 Speaker 3: Yeah, just on the You know, if this comes into legislation, 1334 01:03:11,493 --> 01:03:13,293 Speaker 3: what you're pushing for here, and obviously the bill is 1335 01:03:13,613 --> 01:03:16,453 Speaker 3: underway for the mandatory under fifteens to wear one. How 1336 01:03:16,493 --> 01:03:19,533 Speaker 3: does that get policed? Are we talking fines here? If 1337 01:03:19,573 --> 01:03:21,853 Speaker 3: you are caught by I know coast Guard don't quite 1338 01:03:21,853 --> 01:03:24,533 Speaker 3: have those bowels. Maybe they do. How would you police that? 1339 01:03:25,293 --> 01:03:27,573 Speaker 22: Well, certainly it wouldn't be up to us the police, 1340 01:03:27,573 --> 01:03:29,493 Speaker 22: and we don't see it as a police center or 1341 01:03:29,533 --> 01:03:33,733 Speaker 22: the issuing of infringement notices type of approach. I think 1342 01:03:33,813 --> 01:03:36,293 Speaker 22: you're probably more looking if the law has changed and 1343 01:03:36,373 --> 01:03:40,813 Speaker 22: enacted that it's actually about education and information. And I 1344 01:03:40,813 --> 01:03:43,893 Speaker 22: don't think that as through any of the other parties 1345 01:03:43,933 --> 01:03:46,773 Speaker 22: who are asking for the bill to be changed as 1346 01:03:46,813 --> 01:03:52,173 Speaker 22: it goes through, anticipating squads of people out there issuing tickets. 1347 01:03:52,253 --> 01:03:55,173 Speaker 22: I don't think that's the way. I think it's going 1348 01:03:55,213 --> 01:03:59,293 Speaker 22: to be more through some investment in education, some investment 1349 01:03:59,333 --> 01:04:04,093 Speaker 22: in some lighte jackets and availability as opposed to that 1350 01:04:04,213 --> 01:04:07,373 Speaker 22: something is sort of you know, it is issuing fines. 1351 01:04:08,333 --> 01:04:12,453 Speaker 2: We're talking to Glenn Scanlon, Chief Executive Water Safety New Zealand. 1352 01:04:12,493 --> 01:04:14,293 Speaker 2: What sized boats are we talking about here? Just to 1353 01:04:14,333 --> 01:04:14,853 Speaker 2: make it clear. 1354 01:04:15,613 --> 01:04:19,493 Speaker 22: Yeah, well, so the bill is talking about boats six 1355 01:04:19,573 --> 01:04:21,573 Speaker 22: meters or less. We would actually like it to be 1356 01:04:21,653 --> 01:04:25,093 Speaker 22: on all recreational crop crafts and look, Coast Guard New 1357 01:04:25,173 --> 01:04:27,853 Speaker 22: Zealand's lined up with us on that too, and I 1358 01:04:27,853 --> 01:04:29,693 Speaker 22: think probably quite a few people will. It just makes 1359 01:04:29,693 --> 01:04:33,693 Speaker 22: it simpler and easier to understand what do you mean. 1360 01:04:33,653 --> 01:04:36,893 Speaker 2: By a recreational clas craft? Are we talking a big 1361 01:04:36,893 --> 01:04:37,453 Speaker 2: old launch? 1362 01:04:38,613 --> 01:04:41,493 Speaker 22: So look, that's in your own ownership, So it's not 1363 01:04:42,813 --> 01:04:45,813 Speaker 22: The definition is not one that I understand completely, to 1364 01:04:45,853 --> 01:04:49,093 Speaker 22: be honest, But that is in your own ownership. It's 1365 01:04:49,173 --> 01:04:54,973 Speaker 22: not a sort of a business owned. Is my understanding, 1366 01:04:54,973 --> 01:04:56,453 Speaker 22: but I'd have to probably go and check because I 1367 01:04:56,453 --> 01:04:57,613 Speaker 22: don't have the exact definition. 1368 01:04:59,133 --> 01:05:01,013 Speaker 3: Glenn. It's been really great having a chat with you. 1369 01:05:01,093 --> 01:05:03,093 Speaker 3: It's very interesting and we're getting a lot of texts 1370 01:05:03,173 --> 01:05:07,133 Speaker 3: coming through the are they looking Look, I think you're 1371 01:05:07,133 --> 01:05:09,133 Speaker 3: getting a lot of support, but then there's a bit 1372 01:05:09,173 --> 01:05:11,053 Speaker 3: of pushback as well to be fear Glenn, And that's 1373 01:05:11,133 --> 01:05:12,893 Speaker 3: that's kind of what we like. We like a good debate. 1374 01:05:12,973 --> 01:05:13,733 Speaker 2: We'll hang on this. 1375 01:05:13,653 --> 01:05:16,453 Speaker 22: One and look, she will be debate and they should be. 1376 01:05:18,533 --> 01:05:21,173 Speaker 2: Which is one second, this person says life jackets. I 1377 01:05:21,213 --> 01:05:23,893 Speaker 2: would go further and mandate crotch straps on all life 1378 01:05:23,973 --> 01:05:27,693 Speaker 2: beckets and floatation vests. A British tourist, a girl's body 1379 01:05:27,733 --> 01:05:31,253 Speaker 2: was lost for days as she raised her arms to 1380 01:05:31,333 --> 01:05:33,693 Speaker 2: her rescuers, but slipped out of her life jacket because 1381 01:05:33,773 --> 01:05:36,653 Speaker 2: no crotch strap. So where do you sit on crotch 1382 01:05:36,693 --> 01:05:37,813 Speaker 2: straps part of the pun? 1383 01:05:37,933 --> 01:05:42,533 Speaker 22: Oh, Look, they're quite highly advised by a lot of groups, 1384 01:05:42,893 --> 01:05:47,333 Speaker 22: and certainly Coastguard suggest them in quite a lot of situations. 1385 01:05:47,333 --> 01:05:48,573 Speaker 22: So it's sensible. 1386 01:05:48,973 --> 01:05:50,813 Speaker 2: What about this one? So we need a lord to 1387 01:05:50,893 --> 01:05:55,013 Speaker 2: keep your family and yourself safe. Society is stupid, Laws 1388 01:05:55,053 --> 01:05:57,933 Speaker 2: are stupid. People are dumb. That's from Ryan. So that's 1389 01:05:57,973 --> 01:05:59,493 Speaker 2: that's that we're giving you a spectrum here. 1390 01:06:00,493 --> 01:06:01,293 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah you are. 1391 01:06:01,493 --> 01:06:07,293 Speaker 22: Look, I think Look, societies often make decisions to put 1392 01:06:07,373 --> 01:06:11,093 Speaker 22: in place rules that help people overall. Sometimes they choose 1393 01:06:11,173 --> 01:06:13,173 Speaker 22: not to, sometimes they choose to, and we've done that 1394 01:06:13,253 --> 01:06:15,533 Speaker 22: in the past for example a round seat belts and 1395 01:06:15,653 --> 01:06:17,773 Speaker 22: bull fencing laws and they have made a massive difference. 1396 01:06:18,333 --> 01:06:20,893 Speaker 3: Yeah, Glenn, it's very interesting and we're going to open 1397 01:06:20,973 --> 01:06:23,293 Speaker 3: up the phone lines now, but really appreciate you coming 1398 01:06:23,333 --> 01:06:25,253 Speaker 3: on and having a chat with us. 1399 01:06:25,733 --> 01:06:27,213 Speaker 22: No pleasure, have a good afternoon. 1400 01:06:27,333 --> 01:06:29,773 Speaker 3: Yeah, you two, you do great work. That is Glenn Scanlon, 1401 01:06:29,813 --> 01:06:32,013 Speaker 3: the chief executive of Water Safety New Zealand. And of 1402 01:06:32,053 --> 01:06:34,613 Speaker 3: course we are taking your thoughts on this mandatory life 1403 01:06:34,733 --> 01:06:38,133 Speaker 3: jackets for everyone on a recreational boat. What do you say, 1404 01:06:38,213 --> 01:06:40,573 Speaker 3: yay or nay? Love to hear from you, Matt. 1405 01:06:40,613 --> 01:06:42,413 Speaker 2: The fact your dad made you put your life jacket 1406 01:06:42,413 --> 01:06:44,413 Speaker 2: on immediately when you go to the car possibly says 1407 01:06:44,413 --> 01:06:46,253 Speaker 2: more about you at the time rather than your father. 1408 01:06:46,333 --> 01:06:46,773 Speaker 2: That's true. 1409 01:06:46,773 --> 01:06:48,293 Speaker 3: I was I agree, I was the only one. 1410 01:06:48,373 --> 01:06:51,133 Speaker 2: I was a trouble trip. There was always a problem. 1411 01:06:51,173 --> 01:06:53,413 Speaker 2: There was always an issue. There was always something stupid 1412 01:06:53,413 --> 01:06:55,813 Speaker 2: being done. There was something being unhooked, there was something 1413 01:06:55,853 --> 01:06:58,453 Speaker 2: being thrown overboard, there was always a problem. 1414 01:06:58,133 --> 01:06:59,693 Speaker 3: I'm restrained that. 1415 01:06:59,613 --> 01:07:01,413 Speaker 2: It was more of a straight jacket type situation. 1416 01:07:01,813 --> 01:07:05,773 Speaker 3: Eighteen to three, the issues that affect you and a 1417 01:07:05,773 --> 01:07:06,973 Speaker 3: bit of fun along the way. 1418 01:07:07,213 --> 01:07:10,373 Speaker 1: Matt Heath and Tyler after News Talk. 1419 01:07:10,213 --> 01:07:12,653 Speaker 3: Said it is a quarter to three. We're talking about 1420 01:07:12,853 --> 01:07:15,813 Speaker 3: mandatory life jackets for everybody water safety in New Zealand 1421 01:07:15,853 --> 01:07:17,773 Speaker 3: and calling for that. What do you say, one hundred 1422 01:07:17,773 --> 01:07:19,733 Speaker 3: and eighteen eighty to number Craig, welcome the show. 1423 01:07:19,733 --> 01:07:20,293 Speaker 2: Your thoughts on this? 1424 01:07:21,933 --> 01:07:25,973 Speaker 24: Yeah, okay, guys, Like I'm against it, you know, for 1425 01:07:26,093 --> 01:07:29,213 Speaker 24: for a number of reasons. Actually, I'm yachtie myself, and 1426 01:07:29,493 --> 01:07:32,493 Speaker 24: you know, I'm a skipper. I've got a season, I've 1427 01:07:32,533 --> 01:07:36,493 Speaker 24: got and you know I I take the responsibility of 1428 01:07:36,493 --> 01:07:41,733 Speaker 24: my crew pretty seriously. But I think that by making 1429 01:07:41,733 --> 01:07:45,373 Speaker 24: it mandatory, you're taking away the last sort of bastion 1430 01:07:45,773 --> 01:07:49,133 Speaker 24: of choice. Really, like when you go out on the water, 1431 01:07:49,733 --> 01:07:50,893 Speaker 24: you're away from. 1432 01:07:50,693 --> 01:07:52,013 Speaker 17: All the rules and the laws. 1433 01:07:52,093 --> 01:07:54,933 Speaker 24: And you know, we don't have licenses on our boats, 1434 01:07:54,933 --> 01:07:57,653 Speaker 24: which is another really good thing. Like I'm a boat 1435 01:07:57,693 --> 01:08:00,573 Speaker 24: master and a yacht master, but I'm dead against also 1436 01:08:01,133 --> 01:08:04,853 Speaker 24: having licenses on boats on pleasure craft like they do 1437 01:08:04,933 --> 01:08:09,893 Speaker 24: in Australia. And you know, with regard to lifejackets, I 1438 01:08:10,213 --> 01:08:13,853 Speaker 24: just think it's it's choice. Leave us to choose and 1439 01:08:13,893 --> 01:08:17,893 Speaker 24: make those decisions ourselves. Don't force us to wear lifejackets. 1440 01:08:17,933 --> 01:08:21,333 Speaker 24: You know, A good example is you know this Sunday 1441 01:08:21,412 --> 01:08:24,173 Speaker 24: is going to be beautiful, there's not going to be 1442 01:08:24,452 --> 01:08:27,852 Speaker 24: any wind day. You're out during the day, why would 1443 01:08:27,853 --> 01:08:30,412 Speaker 24: you why would you wear lifejackets? You know you can 1444 01:08:30,492 --> 01:08:33,852 Speaker 24: see everything. You're traveling at a slow speed. If you 1445 01:08:33,973 --> 01:08:37,213 Speaker 24: fall over, then you know, if you fall off the side, 1446 01:08:37,253 --> 01:08:39,213 Speaker 24: then there's a guy turns around and comes to get you. 1447 01:08:39,492 --> 01:08:40,612 Speaker 24: I don't really see. 1448 01:08:40,412 --> 01:08:43,812 Speaker 2: Any curse as a skipper, Craig. Are there times when 1449 01:08:43,853 --> 01:08:47,333 Speaker 2: you insist that people on board put on life jackets? 1450 01:08:48,213 --> 01:08:53,173 Speaker 24: Absolutely? Yeah, at night we always wear life beckets at 1451 01:08:53,253 --> 01:08:56,612 Speaker 24: night because it's a lot harder to spot somebody when 1452 01:08:56,652 --> 01:09:00,732 Speaker 24: they go overboard at night. Also the conditions as well, 1453 01:09:00,812 --> 01:09:03,732 Speaker 24: like if it's really really rough. It's generally my rule 1454 01:09:03,732 --> 01:09:07,333 Speaker 24: of summer Soviet twenty nine. I make the crew where 1455 01:09:07,412 --> 01:09:11,732 Speaker 24: a life checkert particular, we're running the gear like running 1456 01:09:11,732 --> 01:09:15,852 Speaker 24: spinnakers off the bow like you know, but when you 1457 01:09:15,853 --> 01:09:17,813 Speaker 24: go out of the cop but if you're if you're 1458 01:09:17,853 --> 01:09:20,972 Speaker 24: if you're on the crew, I make the guys real 1459 01:09:21,013 --> 01:09:23,093 Speaker 24: life it because there's there's a higher risk of your 1460 01:09:23,133 --> 01:09:27,173 Speaker 24: getting knocked over. But it's just it's I think I 1461 01:09:27,213 --> 01:09:31,492 Speaker 24: think taking that decision away from skippers. Is just it's 1462 01:09:31,532 --> 01:09:34,333 Speaker 24: impinging on our on our rights, and it's and for me, 1463 01:09:35,133 --> 01:09:38,892 Speaker 24: the sea is the last the last bastion of our 1464 01:09:39,612 --> 01:09:40,852 Speaker 24: our personal freedom. 1465 01:09:40,973 --> 01:09:41,173 Speaker 20: Right. 1466 01:09:41,213 --> 01:09:45,293 Speaker 24: You don't have to there's no speed limits you you know, 1467 01:09:45,532 --> 01:09:48,213 Speaker 24: you get to do what you want. You're the only 1468 01:09:48,253 --> 01:09:49,852 Speaker 24: real of our life. 1469 01:09:50,013 --> 01:09:52,173 Speaker 2: You're a salty old You're a salty old sea dog, 1470 01:09:52,213 --> 01:09:59,053 Speaker 2: aren't you great? It's in your blood. But so you're 1471 01:09:59,053 --> 01:10:02,772 Speaker 2: a knowledgeable skipper. You're thinking about things, you know what's 1472 01:10:02,893 --> 01:10:05,572 Speaker 2: right and wrong. But you you must have seen the 1473 01:10:05,572 --> 01:10:07,692 Speaker 2: amount of muppets that are out on the water doing 1474 01:10:07,853 --> 01:10:11,852 Speaker 2: stupid stuff and getting themselves into trouble. So do you 1475 01:10:11,893 --> 01:10:14,852 Speaker 2: think that this law is a blanket rule rule to 1476 01:10:14,893 --> 01:10:17,133 Speaker 2: try and save people that don't know what they're doing 1477 01:10:17,173 --> 01:10:17,572 Speaker 2: out there. 1478 01:10:18,893 --> 01:10:20,852 Speaker 24: But the thing is the markets won't listen to that 1479 01:10:20,933 --> 01:10:24,892 Speaker 24: rule anyways. You know, you know, you're kind of it's 1480 01:10:24,933 --> 01:10:26,892 Speaker 24: like the tar wagging the dog. Right, you're making a 1481 01:10:26,973 --> 01:10:30,013 Speaker 24: law to try and stop people from being stupid, But 1482 01:10:30,253 --> 01:10:32,573 Speaker 24: you know people are still going to be stupid regardless. 1483 01:10:32,692 --> 01:10:35,492 Speaker 24: You know, you know a lot of people won't we'll 1484 01:10:35,532 --> 01:10:38,532 Speaker 24: just refuse to wear their life tackers. I certainly wouldn't 1485 01:10:38,612 --> 01:10:40,932 Speaker 24: change anything if there was a blanket rule, I would 1486 01:10:40,973 --> 01:10:46,933 Speaker 24: still continue to make the decision as per normal, and 1487 01:10:46,973 --> 01:10:49,092 Speaker 24: I would think that most of those these would anyway. 1488 01:10:49,093 --> 01:10:51,612 Speaker 24: Most bodies are pretty good, to be honest, you know, 1489 01:10:51,933 --> 01:10:54,933 Speaker 24: they're pretty responsible. They don't need to be told what 1490 01:10:55,013 --> 01:10:55,293 Speaker 24: to do. 1491 01:10:55,572 --> 01:10:59,253 Speaker 2: Well, most bodies are craig. But surely must be able 1492 01:10:59,253 --> 01:11:01,852 Speaker 2: to describe what's the stupidest thing that you see out 1493 01:11:01,853 --> 01:11:03,812 Speaker 2: there on the water that people do? 1494 01:11:04,973 --> 01:11:06,933 Speaker 24: What's the what do you. 1495 01:11:08,412 --> 01:11:08,572 Speaker 18: Well? 1496 01:11:08,612 --> 01:11:13,412 Speaker 24: I think you know it's probably knew me. Like you know, 1497 01:11:13,492 --> 01:11:16,492 Speaker 24: you've you've come into a ton of money and you 1498 01:11:16,572 --> 01:11:18,732 Speaker 24: go and you buy your forty foot ribs and you've 1499 01:11:18,732 --> 01:11:22,333 Speaker 24: got absolutely no bloody idea and you learn everything the 1500 01:11:22,372 --> 01:11:25,452 Speaker 24: hard way. There's some pretty funny, funny things that happened, 1501 01:11:25,492 --> 01:11:28,133 Speaker 24: but they could also be dangerous. But that's just I 1502 01:11:28,133 --> 01:11:30,452 Speaker 24: don't know. I think I think you're taking away that 1503 01:11:30,612 --> 01:11:33,452 Speaker 24: last opportunity for people to just kind of learn by 1504 01:11:33,652 --> 01:11:34,773 Speaker 24: making their own mistakes. 1505 01:11:34,933 --> 01:11:39,772 Speaker 3: Really, I mean, obviously, sorry you carry on. I was 1506 01:11:39,812 --> 01:11:41,293 Speaker 3: just going to say, I mean, look, most most of 1507 01:11:41,293 --> 01:11:44,132 Speaker 3: the laws we have in this country, it's it's there 1508 01:11:44,333 --> 01:11:47,092 Speaker 3: to sort out the dumbasses of society. It's just reality, 1509 01:11:47,173 --> 01:11:50,092 Speaker 3: right that most of us know how to operate safely, 1510 01:11:50,173 --> 01:11:52,293 Speaker 3: like seepbouts and not drink when we're driving and all 1511 01:11:52,333 --> 01:11:54,253 Speaker 3: the rest of it. So the laws out there are 1512 01:11:54,253 --> 01:11:57,052 Speaker 3: to protect the idiots in life. And it's the same 1513 01:11:57,133 --> 01:12:00,932 Speaker 3: with the life jacket thing. But the idea of a license, Craig, 1514 01:12:01,013 --> 01:12:02,692 Speaker 3: and not so much of a license, but you know, 1515 01:12:03,133 --> 01:12:05,812 Speaker 3: mandatory day skip of course before you go out on 1516 01:12:05,853 --> 01:12:07,372 Speaker 3: the water. Would that be a better way to do 1517 01:12:07,452 --> 01:12:10,293 Speaker 3: it so that the people and people who become skippers 1518 01:12:10,333 --> 01:12:13,293 Speaker 3: they know if anything goes wrong, you're in deep, deep 1519 01:12:13,293 --> 01:12:14,692 Speaker 3: trouble and it's on you as skipper. 1520 01:12:15,933 --> 01:12:16,093 Speaker 7: Yeah. 1521 01:12:16,133 --> 01:12:18,892 Speaker 24: Look, I think doing a mandatory day skipper's cause is 1522 01:12:18,893 --> 01:12:21,173 Speaker 24: a good thing. It's pretty easy to do. You can 1523 01:12:21,213 --> 01:12:24,893 Speaker 24: do it online, you know, coast Guard you said, a 1524 01:12:24,933 --> 01:12:28,852 Speaker 24: coast Guard offers fabulous courses online, so it's very easy 1525 01:12:28,893 --> 01:12:29,053 Speaker 24: to do. 1526 01:12:30,133 --> 01:12:30,333 Speaker 3: Both. 1527 01:12:30,412 --> 01:12:33,293 Speaker 24: My boys have done it, you know. And then and 1528 01:12:33,333 --> 01:12:36,492 Speaker 24: then you may find it and people will find interest 1529 01:12:36,492 --> 01:12:38,372 Speaker 24: in it and then go on to maybe do a 1530 01:12:38,372 --> 01:12:41,692 Speaker 24: boat master, become more you know, and and you learn 1531 01:12:41,732 --> 01:12:45,612 Speaker 24: a lot by doing those those horses and the tutors goods. 1532 01:12:45,933 --> 01:12:51,293 Speaker 2: Yeah, right now, Craig's speaking of salty.

Looking forward to that, right, we are carrying 1630 01:17:03,572 --> 01:17:06,892 Speaker 3: on this discussion about mandatory life jacket.

What a safety In New Zealand, 1634 01:17:15,612 --> 01:17:18,013 Speaker 3: they say, now's the time to go full hog, a 1635 01:17:18,133 --> 01:17:21,772 Speaker 3: universal nationwide rule requiring people of all ages to wear 1636 01:17:21,772 --> 01:17:25,532 Speaker 3: life jackets on recreational boats and watercraft. So they say, well, 1637 01:17:25,532 --> 01:17:29,732 Speaker 3: I've got the stats. Actually, so between twenty twenty twenty four, 1638 01:17:29,732 --> 01:17:31,933 Speaker 3: more than three hundred and twenty people drowned in a 1639 01:17:31,933 --> 01:17:34,293 Speaker 3: boat or craft incident who are not wearing a life 1640 01:17:34,372 --> 01:17:37,293 Speaker 3: jacket and they reckon. Twelve lives could be saved every 1641 01:17:37,412 --> 01:17:39,012 Speaker 3: year if this law came to pass. 1642 01:17:39,492 --> 01:17:41,732 Speaker 2: So the Sticks asks, hey, guys, can you find out 1643 01:17:41,812 --> 01:17:44,133 Speaker 2: how many people actually drown in a boat through not 1644 01:17:44,173 --> 01:17:45,972 Speaker 2: wearing a life jacket. It seems to me that half 1645 01:17:46,013 --> 01:17:48,053 Speaker 2: the people that drown fall off the rocks. They're not 1646 01:17:48,093 --> 01:17:50,012 Speaker 2: even on a boat. Whenever I'm out in the raft, 1647 01:17:50,013 --> 01:17:52,213 Speaker 2: it appears to me that lots of people have life 1648 01:17:52,253 --> 01:17:54,892 Speaker 2: jackets on if it's a calm lots of people don't. 1649 01:17:55,612 --> 01:17:57,892 Speaker 2: As Craig said, most people use their own judgment as 1650 01:17:57,893 --> 01:18:00,053 Speaker 2: to whether you should wear one or not, and most 1651 01:18:00,093 --> 01:18:04,092 Speaker 2: people probably don't come unstuck. However, if they're falling off rocks, 1652 01:18:04,452 --> 01:18:05,372 Speaker 2: it probably won't help. 1653 01:18:06,213 --> 01:18:08,452 Speaker 3: So the stats in front of us right now from 1654 01:18:08,492 --> 01:18:11,333 Speaker 3: water safety to New Zealand this year ten people have 1655 01:18:11,412 --> 01:18:14,772 Speaker 3: drowned on boats or other craft without wearing a life jacket. 1656 01:18:14,812 --> 01:18:16,972 Speaker 3: So that's ten on a boat or a craft which 1657 01:18:16,973 --> 01:18:19,932 Speaker 3: would be a water ski, etc. But it doesn't you're 1658 01:18:19,973 --> 01:18:21,732 Speaker 3: quite right, It doesn't give the facts on those who 1659 01:18:21,772 --> 01:18:26,452 Speaker 3: fall off the rocks. So they've drowned without life jackets, 1660 01:18:26,492 --> 01:18:29,492 Speaker 3: without life jackets. Yeah, yeah, so you know, I'm just 1661 01:18:29,692 --> 01:18:32,852 Speaker 3: stat's always interesting. So they've drowned without life jackets. But 1662 01:18:32,973 --> 01:18:35,133 Speaker 3: have they confirmed that they would have survived if they 1663 01:18:35,133 --> 01:18:37,732 Speaker 3: did have life jackets? No, they have not. Yeah, which 1664 01:18:37,812 --> 01:18:39,812 Speaker 3: is a good point. But can you get your thoughts 1665 01:18:39,812 --> 01:18:41,253 Speaker 3: on this? I eight one hundred and eighty ten eighty. 1666 01:18:41,253 --> 01:18:44,572 Speaker 3: If you're a boaty, how strict are you on making 1667 01:18:44,612 --> 01:18:46,692 Speaker 3: your passengers wear life jackets? And is it a good 1668 01:18:46,692 --> 01:18:47,532 Speaker 3: idea to mandate it? 1669 01:18:48,372 --> 01:18:51,652 Speaker 2: Guys I'm from Apata and we launched straight into the 1670 01:18:51,692 --> 01:18:56,093 Speaker 2: Tasman off Shipwreck Bay. Everyone takes safety very seriously, and 1671 01:18:56,173 --> 01:18:59,412 Speaker 2: I don't have too many muppets around here. They seem 1672 01:18:59,452 --> 01:19:04,093 Speaker 2: to be a bit closer to the cities. I would say, okay, God, Stephen, right, 1673 01:19:05,412 --> 01:19:07,892 Speaker 2: is that true that closer to the cities there's more 1674 01:19:08,013 --> 01:19:09,652 Speaker 2: muppet out on the water. I mean there's probably just 1675 01:19:09,732 --> 01:19:12,932 Speaker 2: more people out on the water, so yeah, I mean. 1676 01:19:12,933 --> 01:19:15,492 Speaker 3: Judging by the ramp activity, I'd say, yeah, there's probably 1677 01:19:15,492 --> 01:19:16,133 Speaker 3: a lot of truth in that. 1678 01:19:16,452 --> 01:19:18,973 Speaker 2: Well, yes, Craig was saying there, you know, close to 1679 01:19:19,013 --> 01:19:21,772 Speaker 2: the cities, you're quite likely to see people that have 1680 01:19:22,652 --> 01:19:25,013 Speaker 2: got a bit of money and just bought themselves a 1681 01:19:25,053 --> 01:19:26,892 Speaker 2: bit of a state of symbol boat heating out there. 1682 01:19:27,013 --> 01:19:28,173 Speaker 3: Yeah, more dollars and cents. 1683 01:19:28,253 --> 01:19:32,052 Speaker 2: Yep, that kind of situation. What about that great story 1684 01:19:32,133 --> 01:19:36,572 Speaker 2: was turned into a TV show with the locals? Where 1685 01:19:36,652 --> 01:19:39,652 Speaker 2: was that? It was up north? The locals noticing some 1686 01:19:39,732 --> 01:19:43,572 Speaker 2: people that were terrible and absolutely useless with I believe 1687 01:19:43,572 --> 01:19:46,213 Speaker 2: it was the sea legs. Maybe I'm wrong, but a 1688 01:19:46,333 --> 01:19:48,852 Speaker 2: very fresh boat. And the locals were like, how can 1689 01:19:48,933 --> 01:19:51,253 Speaker 2: these people be so useless with the boat? This doesn't 1690 01:19:51,293 --> 01:19:54,093 Speaker 2: make any sense. And then more investigation it turned out 1691 01:19:54,133 --> 01:19:56,933 Speaker 2: they were, you know, picking up meth drops off of 1692 01:19:57,093 --> 01:19:59,732 Speaker 2: sure so in their system they had a lot of 1693 01:20:00,253 --> 01:20:02,412 Speaker 2: you know, they were cash rich. They bought a flash boat, 1694 01:20:02,492 --> 01:20:05,293 Speaker 2: but the people that were operating the boat. I'll find 1695 01:20:05,293 --> 01:20:06,852 Speaker 2: out the details. There's a book about it. There's a 1696 01:20:06,853 --> 01:20:09,892 Speaker 2: great TV series that out starring Robin Malcolm about it 1697 01:20:09,893 --> 01:20:10,213 Speaker 2: as well. 1698 01:20:10,333 --> 01:20:13,133 Speaker 3: Yeah, Good Drug Dealer is Terrible Bodies. Oh eight hundred 1699 01:20:13,253 --> 01:20:14,892 Speaker 3: eighty ten eighty is that number? 1700 01:20:15,013 --> 01:20:18,973 Speaker 2: Call bell? Your thoughts on life jackets in these in 1701 01:20:19,013 --> 01:20:21,412 Speaker 2: this proposal, Well, I. 1702 01:20:21,372 --> 01:20:24,253 Speaker 17: Think they should be mandatory, But there's something that Craig 1703 01:20:24,652 --> 01:20:27,652 Speaker 17: didn't really think about. Like he says, when they get 1704 01:20:27,732 --> 01:20:29,692 Speaker 17: knocked off the boat, we'll just turn around and go 1705 01:20:29,772 --> 01:20:32,692 Speaker 17: back and get them. Well, what happens if he's knocked 1706 01:20:32,732 --> 01:20:35,333 Speaker 17: out and he's unconscious in the water by the time 1707 01:20:35,372 --> 01:20:39,012 Speaker 17: they've stopped this bloody great yacht turned around or turned 1708 01:20:39,013 --> 01:20:40,972 Speaker 17: around to go back and get him, the guy's drought. 1709 01:20:42,133 --> 01:20:45,013 Speaker 2: Yeah, So he was saying though that he would be 1710 01:20:45,133 --> 01:20:48,253 Speaker 2: he would if there's if the conditions are rough at all, 1711 01:20:49,093 --> 01:20:51,692 Speaker 2: then then he makes even on the boats, we're a 1712 01:20:51,732 --> 01:20:55,413 Speaker 2: life jacket, So I guess. 1713 01:20:54,333 --> 01:20:57,333 Speaker 17: That's assuming it's rough. But if he does attack and 1714 01:20:57,372 --> 01:20:59,492 Speaker 17: this guy gets hit by the boom and goes over 1715 01:20:59,532 --> 01:21:01,812 Speaker 17: the side, it's not rough. He won't have a life 1716 01:21:01,853 --> 01:21:05,213 Speaker 17: jacket on. He's going to drown, simple as that, would 1717 01:21:05,213 --> 01:21:05,452 Speaker 17: he not? 1718 01:21:05,612 --> 01:21:08,932 Speaker 3: I mean nothing, yeah, yeah, but he kind of sounds 1719 01:21:08,933 --> 01:21:10,852 Speaker 3: like the guy. I imagine he's got a lifesaver on 1720 01:21:10,933 --> 01:21:13,612 Speaker 3: board that he might jump at himself in that situation 1721 01:21:13,652 --> 01:21:15,412 Speaker 3: because he is a skipper. You know, skipper's have a 1722 01:21:15,452 --> 01:21:16,372 Speaker 3: responsibility that. 1723 01:21:16,973 --> 01:21:19,812 Speaker 2: Saying, what if Craigs knocked himself unconscious? Are you saying 1724 01:21:19,812 --> 01:21:21,892 Speaker 2: Craig knocked himself unconscious or the person in the water, 1725 01:21:22,652 --> 01:21:26,093 Speaker 2: the person in the water? I see, Sorry, sorry I 1726 01:21:26,772 --> 01:21:29,412 Speaker 2: totally misunderstood you, Bill. Sorry, sorry. Yeah, So they're just 1727 01:21:29,652 --> 01:21:32,412 Speaker 2: they've been knockingimselves unconscious and they're just going down. Yeah well, 1728 01:21:32,452 --> 01:21:34,213 Speaker 2: I mean yeah, and it could could take a while 1729 01:21:34,253 --> 01:21:37,052 Speaker 2: to turn back ground. That's that's a there's an interesting point, Bill. Yeah. 1730 01:21:38,213 --> 01:21:40,293 Speaker 17: So yeah, well he hasn't even for that, you know, 1731 01:21:40,452 --> 01:21:42,933 Speaker 17: it's just just crazy. I've got a life jacket that 1732 01:21:43,093 --> 01:21:46,572 Speaker 17: south inflates when it hits the water, which is good 1733 01:21:46,572 --> 01:21:49,092 Speaker 17: and bad because if your cap side, you go straight 1734 01:21:49,173 --> 01:21:51,812 Speaker 17: up to the upside down of the boat. You can't 1735 01:21:51,812 --> 01:21:52,173 Speaker 17: get out. 1736 01:21:52,532 --> 01:21:54,692 Speaker 2: Yeah, so so a bunch of if a whole lot 1737 01:21:54,732 --> 01:21:56,892 Speaker 2: of people are texting about this, and I hadn't even 1738 01:21:56,933 --> 01:21:59,612 Speaker 2: thought about this. So what are the real dangers about 1739 01:21:59,853 --> 01:22:02,253 Speaker 2: being trapped under a boat and you're so buoyant from 1740 01:22:02,293 --> 01:22:04,572 Speaker 2: your from your life jacket? I mean, most life jacket's 1741 01:22:04,572 --> 01:22:05,932 Speaker 2: a reason easy to get off, aren't they. 1742 01:22:08,372 --> 01:22:10,412 Speaker 17: They're not that easy. They're designed not to. 1743 01:22:10,372 --> 01:22:11,732 Speaker 2: Be too easy, some of them. 1744 01:22:12,933 --> 01:22:15,812 Speaker 17: Yeah, but it's like an aircraft. That's why they tell 1745 01:22:15,853 --> 01:22:18,253 Speaker 17: you in a plane, don't inflat your life check until 1746 01:22:18,253 --> 01:22:21,093 Speaker 17: you get out of the aircraft, because it fills with water. 1747 01:22:21,213 --> 01:22:23,253 Speaker 17: You go straight up to the roof, you can't get out. 1748 01:22:23,412 --> 01:22:23,612 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1749 01:22:23,772 --> 01:22:26,532 Speaker 2: It's it harder to get the cross strapped ones off 1750 01:22:26,652 --> 01:22:28,053 Speaker 2: than the other ones. I meagine it would be. 1751 01:22:29,732 --> 01:22:31,852 Speaker 17: Yeah, I think so. Some of them have got quick 1752 01:22:31,893 --> 01:22:34,652 Speaker 17: release on them, and some of them are buckled. They've 1753 01:22:34,652 --> 01:22:38,372 Speaker 17: got a stain of steel buckle which is quite hard 1754 01:22:38,412 --> 01:22:38,852 Speaker 17: to undo. 1755 01:22:39,492 --> 01:22:41,532 Speaker 2: You sound like quite an inexperienced body bill. 1756 01:22:41,572 --> 01:22:47,253 Speaker 3: Would that be creep No, not really, it sounded like it. 1757 01:22:47,532 --> 01:22:49,932 Speaker 17: I'm a passenger on a boat, but I've looked into. 1758 01:22:49,732 --> 01:22:54,692 Speaker 2: It and you're und you had a bit of a skier, 1759 01:22:54,692 --> 01:22:56,372 Speaker 2: did you. 1760 01:22:56,492 --> 01:23:00,692 Speaker 17: Yeah, we were taking on water and I just thought, well, 1761 01:23:00,732 --> 01:23:02,492 Speaker 17: maybe we're going to sink and I haven't got a. 1762 01:23:02,532 --> 01:23:07,093 Speaker 2: Life checket, right, So you were out on a boat 1763 01:23:07,093 --> 01:23:09,333 Speaker 2: and there just wasn't in even like not not even 1764 01:23:09,572 --> 01:23:11,452 Speaker 2: not on but not even on the boat. 1765 01:23:12,333 --> 01:23:14,932 Speaker 17: Oh they are on the boat, but there are most 1766 01:23:14,933 --> 01:23:17,293 Speaker 17: of them. Keep them in the cabin, right and if 1767 01:23:17,333 --> 01:23:19,372 Speaker 17: you're out the back, you've got to find your way 1768 01:23:19,372 --> 01:23:22,973 Speaker 17: into get the things. And it was just it just 1769 01:23:23,053 --> 01:23:26,213 Speaker 17: makes sense. And these self inflating ones are quite small. 1770 01:23:26,213 --> 01:23:27,492 Speaker 17: They're not obtrusive at all. 1771 01:23:27,973 --> 01:23:30,973 Speaker 3: The other ones with the canisters, they're the canisters that 1772 01:23:31,213 --> 01:23:33,812 Speaker 3: kind of eject and blow it up. You've got to 1773 01:23:33,812 --> 01:23:35,612 Speaker 3: be careful of those, though, don't you, Because if you 1774 01:23:36,053 --> 01:23:38,133 Speaker 3: take it out or been in storage and you haven't 1775 01:23:38,173 --> 01:23:40,253 Speaker 3: checked the canister and then you need it and it 1776 01:23:40,293 --> 01:23:42,372 Speaker 3: turns out the canister's got a leak or it's eroded, 1777 01:23:42,772 --> 01:23:43,772 Speaker 3: then you're kind of stuffed. 1778 01:23:44,732 --> 01:23:48,253 Speaker 17: Well, you're supposed to replace them every twelve months, I think. 1779 01:23:48,492 --> 01:23:54,693 Speaker 2: Anyway, Yeah, gotcha, Yeah, but better than the old. 1780 01:23:53,333 --> 01:23:56,893 Speaker 17: On TV where that guy was needs to go to specksavors. 1781 01:23:56,893 --> 01:23:59,853 Speaker 17: You're seeing me falls on the water and it south inflates. 1782 01:24:00,652 --> 01:24:04,612 Speaker 3: Yeah, the ones, it's good. What happens in he falls 1783 01:24:04,652 --> 01:24:07,013 Speaker 3: off the boat and the jacket comes up. But I 1784 01:24:07,013 --> 01:24:09,052 Speaker 3: can't remember what was the what's a punchline? 1785 01:24:09,133 --> 01:24:14,093 Speaker 17: Yeah, I can't remember either. He was walking down at war, 1786 01:24:14,333 --> 01:24:15,612 Speaker 17: that's right, and he didn't see the end of. 1787 01:24:15,612 --> 01:24:18,492 Speaker 3: The war walk Oh that's right. Yeah, yeah, yeah, all right, 1788 01:24:20,013 --> 01:24:22,013 Speaker 3: memorable about just you know, it doesn't make you think 1789 01:24:22,013 --> 01:24:23,772 Speaker 3: about glasses, makes you think about life jackets. 1790 01:24:23,933 --> 01:24:27,732 Speaker 2: Good work from Specsavers with those ads. Yeah, very clever, 1791 01:24:27,853 --> 01:24:28,572 Speaker 2: that's very clever. 1792 01:24:28,692 --> 01:24:29,092 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1793 01:24:29,093 --> 01:24:30,612 Speaker 2: Oh, eight one hundred and eighty ten eighty is the 1794 01:24:30,692 --> 01:24:31,213 Speaker 2: number to call. 1795 01:24:31,293 --> 01:24:34,052 Speaker 3: We are taking your thoughts on the idea of mandatory 1796 01:24:34,053 --> 01:24:35,172 Speaker 3: life jackets for everyone. 1797 01:24:35,333 --> 01:24:37,612 Speaker 2: Perfect example as to why we need life jackets, warn 1798 01:24:37,612 --> 01:24:40,013 Speaker 2: a skipper stating he won't change a thing. If the 1799 01:24:40,053 --> 01:24:43,173 Speaker 2: law comes into play, he should be leading by example. Yeah, 1800 01:24:43,253 --> 01:24:47,092 Speaker 2: but it's you know, by their own you know, admission. 1801 01:24:47,333 --> 01:24:50,772 Speaker 2: This won't be enforced. So the idea of having a 1802 01:24:50,772 --> 01:24:53,812 Speaker 2: blanket nationalwide rule that everyone has to wear the life 1803 01:24:53,853 --> 01:24:59,253 Speaker 2: jackets as just as an education initiative, really yeah, because 1804 01:24:59,412 --> 01:25:01,772 Speaker 2: I mean, good luck pinging people for not having life jackets. 1805 01:25:01,812 --> 01:25:03,973 Speaker 2: When they're out in the you know, out on the 1806 01:25:03,973 --> 01:25:05,692 Speaker 2: water exactly.

Water Safety New Zealander is pushing it. Keen 1813 01:25:20,732 --> 01:25:22,852 Speaker 3: to get your views on O eight hundred and eighteen eighty. 1814 01:25:22,732 --> 01:25:26,252 Speaker 2: The percentage of people this would helps. Tiny people are relaxing, 1815 01:25:26,293 --> 01:25:29,213 Speaker 2: some bathing, fishing, if it's rough, et cetera. Make the 1816 01:25:29,213 --> 01:25:31,812 Speaker 2: call the skipper is responsible? Are we all having to 1817 01:25:31,853 --> 01:25:34,333 Speaker 2: wear life jackets when we are going to the beach? 1818 01:25:35,692 --> 01:25:38,173 Speaker 2: They what were they called? Again? We talked to the 1819 01:25:38,213 --> 01:25:40,812 Speaker 2: guy water Safety New Zealand. Yep, yeah, it was great 1820 01:25:40,812 --> 01:25:43,412 Speaker 2: man Glenn. Yeah. So they're not pushing for it when 1821 01:25:43,452 --> 01:25:45,732 Speaker 2: you're when you're anchored up in a bay and everyone's swimming. 1822 01:25:45,772 --> 01:25:48,052 Speaker 2: It's only they're only pushing for it when the boat 1823 01:25:48,133 --> 01:25:51,652 Speaker 2: is moving, correct, But thank you for your text. That 1824 01:25:51,692 --> 01:25:55,092 Speaker 2: guy Craig is a total irresponsible muppet boat master ticket. 1825 01:25:55,452 --> 01:25:57,213 Speaker 2: He got his out of a week picks packet. 1826 01:25:57,213 --> 01:25:59,572 Speaker 3: Okay, keep those teas coming through on nineteen nine, two. 1827 01:25:59,652 --> 01:26:01,532 Speaker 2: Week picks giving away boat masters. 1828 01:26:01,853 --> 01:26:02,572 Speaker 3: That makes it easy. 1829 01:26:02,652 --> 01:26:04,372 Speaker 2: That'd be good. But yeah, I'm going to try and 1830 01:26:04,412 --> 01:26:07,333 Speaker 2: convince my mother in law to me let me, you know, 1831 01:26:07,812 --> 01:26:09,532 Speaker 2: skipper boat over Christmas. 1832 01:26:09,572 --> 01:26:12,452 Speaker 3: I'll let us know how that goes. That is responsibility. 1833 01:26:12,492 --> 01:26:14,293 Speaker 2: So if I can get that that masters out of 1834 01:26:14,293 --> 01:26:17,412 Speaker 2: a bloody week pick it, yeah, that'd be good. The 1835 01:26:17,772 --> 01:26:21,372 Speaker 2: issue is should under fifteens all under fifteen should wear 1836 01:26:21,333 --> 01:26:24,492 Speaker 2: life jackets? Absolutely? These young ones are more vulnerable than 1837 01:26:24,532 --> 01:26:29,293 Speaker 2: anyone else. Now, what they're pushing for is for all adults. Yeah, 1838 01:26:29,372 --> 01:26:30,293 Speaker 2: not just under fifteen. 1839 01:26:30,412 --> 01:26:32,652 Speaker 3: Correct. So the bill before Parliament at the moment, it's 1840 01:26:32,692 --> 01:26:35,652 Speaker 3: the submissions are open that may mandate it for under fifteen. 1841 01:26:35,692 --> 01:26:39,253 Speaker 3: But Water Safety New Zealand says, no bugger that everybody should. 1842 01:26:39,652 --> 01:26:43,652 Speaker 2: And Gilly says, Craig's not the problem. He's an experienced skipper. 1843 01:26:43,933 --> 01:26:46,372 Speaker 2: It's the muppets you see launching their tinny from the 1844 01:26:46,532 --> 01:26:50,412 Speaker 2: launch ramp, three big lumps, no life jacket, puttering off 1845 01:26:50,452 --> 01:26:54,012 Speaker 2: into the distance with the wind turning, white peaks getting bigger. 1846 01:26:54,692 --> 01:26:56,932 Speaker 2: That's a widow maker situation right there. 1847 01:26:56,812 --> 01:27:01,333 Speaker 3: Beautifully written Kimberly, how are you this afternoon?

I know when it's 1860 01:27:40,572 --> 01:27:45,452 Speaker 2: dangerous and when it's safe, and it's my responsibility when 1861 01:27:45,452 --> 01:27:48,532 Speaker 2: people put life jackets on or not because they feel 1862 01:27:48,572 --> 01:27:50,932 Speaker 2: a little bit like, you know, we don't do anything wrong. 1863 01:27:51,213 --> 01:27:52,612 Speaker 2: Why are we being forced to do this? 1864 01:27:53,933 --> 01:27:56,892 Speaker 23: Look, it is fantastic that there are so many stuffs 1865 01:27:56,933 --> 01:27:59,772 Speaker 23: out there taking you know, taking that role really is 1866 01:27:59,933 --> 01:28:04,972 Speaker 23: responsible responsibly, So you know, absolutely cut us to those 1867 01:28:05,173 --> 01:28:10,452 Speaker 23: and those people. The reality is there, you know, things 1868 01:28:10,532 --> 01:28:15,692 Speaker 23: happen out on the water in an instance, and and 1869 01:28:16,452 --> 01:28:19,213 Speaker 23: you know if you've got you know, if you've got 1870 01:28:19,213 --> 01:28:22,692 Speaker 23: a life jacket on board but not worn, when something happens, 1871 01:28:22,692 --> 01:28:25,452 Speaker 23: when something goes wrong, it's no good to you up 1872 01:28:25,492 --> 01:28:27,492 Speaker 23: the front. You know, if you end up in the 1873 01:28:27,492 --> 01:28:30,852 Speaker 23: water unexpectedly, you need that life jacket in order to 1874 01:28:30,933 --> 01:28:35,972 Speaker 23: help you stay afloat, which essentially enables us or enables 1875 01:28:36,053 --> 01:28:39,132 Speaker 23: time for our volunteers to come out and assist. 1876 01:28:39,933 --> 01:28:41,852 Speaker 2: How often do you see out on the water the 1877 01:28:41,893 --> 01:28:44,293 Speaker 2: situation that we're hearing a bit through on the text 1878 01:28:44,372 --> 01:28:49,572 Speaker 2: machine of people with life jackets on floating under the 1879 01:28:49,572 --> 01:28:51,812 Speaker 2: boat and the left jacket making it difficult for them 1880 01:28:51,812 --> 01:28:53,692 Speaker 2: to get out from under the boat. Do you see 1881 01:28:53,692 --> 01:28:54,293 Speaker 2: that very often? 1882 01:28:55,973 --> 01:28:59,133 Speaker 23: Look, you know there are reports that you know that 1883 01:28:59,133 --> 01:29:03,812 Speaker 23: that that does happen, and so you know there is 1884 01:29:04,812 --> 01:29:08,852 Speaker 23: you know, ultimately it's depending on the type of life jacket. 1885 01:29:08,893 --> 01:29:12,692 Speaker 23: You know, obviously encouraging. Uh, there is the inflatable life 1886 01:29:12,772 --> 01:29:17,452 Speaker 23: jackets which you inflate. You know, once you've left I 1887 01:29:17,452 --> 01:29:21,932 Speaker 23: guess left left the craft, so it does it does happen, 1888 01:29:22,893 --> 01:29:25,732 Speaker 23: and but ultimately I guess you know you've still got 1889 01:29:25,732 --> 01:29:28,572 Speaker 23: a greater chances of survival were wearing a life jacket. 1890 01:29:29,053 --> 01:29:30,932 Speaker 3: So you measure before you're out on the water Coast 1891 01:29:30,933 --> 01:29:33,572 Speaker 3: Guard New Zealand, you'd see a lot of terrible things 1892 01:29:33,572 --> 01:29:36,532 Speaker 3: happened to boaty. Give us some examples. What happens that 1893 01:29:36,652 --> 01:29:39,093 Speaker 3: is it? You know, the engine gets cut in the 1894 01:29:39,133 --> 01:29:41,173 Speaker 3: waters start getting a lot more choppy, and they don't 1895 01:29:41,213 --> 01:29:43,253 Speaker 3: have their life jackets. What sort of examples are you 1896 01:29:43,253 --> 01:29:43,852 Speaker 3: seen out there? 1897 01:29:45,492 --> 01:29:45,852 Speaker 8: Oh? 1898 01:29:45,893 --> 01:29:49,372 Speaker 23: Look, you know you can have situations where somebody gets 1899 01:29:49,933 --> 01:29:54,972 Speaker 23: hit by zone and ocked overboard. You can have a 1900 01:29:55,093 --> 01:29:59,333 Speaker 23: rogue wave and you know certainly crossing a bar comes 1901 01:29:59,372 --> 01:30:03,933 Speaker 23: with significant risks and as well, so you know, the 1902 01:30:03,973 --> 01:30:08,173 Speaker 23: ability to capsize. We've had a scenario where people have 1903 01:30:08,532 --> 01:30:13,013 Speaker 23: been towing another vessel that was taking on water and 1904 01:30:13,053 --> 01:30:15,732 Speaker 23: then in both vessels got pulled down and nobody had 1905 01:30:15,772 --> 01:30:17,572 Speaker 23: life jackets on and we ended up with five people 1906 01:30:17,572 --> 01:30:20,612 Speaker 23: in the water with no life jackets on. So there 1907 01:30:20,652 --> 01:30:23,572 Speaker 23: is just so many different scenarios that can play out. 1908 01:30:24,372 --> 01:30:27,412 Speaker 23: You know, people could have a medical event. So it's 1909 01:30:27,933 --> 01:30:30,692 Speaker 23: this is just about try to make sure that we 1910 01:30:30,732 --> 01:30:36,133 Speaker 23: are giving everybody the best possible chance of survival if 1911 01:30:36,173 --> 01:30:37,372 Speaker 23: something does go wrong. 1912 01:30:38,213 --> 01:30:40,652 Speaker 2: Is this just a muppet problem, and will the muppets 1913 01:30:40,652 --> 01:30:43,452 Speaker 2: not wear the life jackets, whether they're mandated or not. 1914 01:30:46,093 --> 01:30:50,732 Speaker 23: Look and they you know, the reality is people are 1915 01:30:50,732 --> 01:30:53,892 Speaker 23: going to make their own you know, obviously, they make 1916 01:30:53,893 --> 01:30:57,732 Speaker 23: their own choices. I've alluded to the fact that things 1917 01:30:57,933 --> 01:31:00,812 Speaker 23: that things do go wrong, and you know, there are 1918 01:31:00,853 --> 01:31:03,612 Speaker 23: so many great examples as well where people have been 1919 01:31:03,652 --> 01:31:05,973 Speaker 23: wearing a life jacket. So don't get me wrong, this 1920 01:31:06,053 --> 01:31:08,652 Speaker 23: is not all about people who aren't wearing them. There 1921 01:31:08,652 --> 01:31:11,253 Speaker 23: are also people who have been wearing them and are 1922 01:31:11,253 --> 01:31:14,652 Speaker 23: here today because they have. So I think, you know, 1923 01:31:14,732 --> 01:31:16,852 Speaker 23: we need to look at those positive outcomes of a 1924 01:31:16,893 --> 01:31:19,772 Speaker 23: number of people that probably have been saved as a 1925 01:31:19,812 --> 01:31:24,253 Speaker 23: result of wearing life jackets. So you know that that's 1926 01:31:24,293 --> 01:31:26,933 Speaker 23: that's the other piece. And I think there is the 1927 01:31:27,013 --> 01:31:31,253 Speaker 23: ability for us again to bring these people home because 1928 01:31:31,293 --> 01:31:34,173 Speaker 23: they have they have warm ones. So we know the outcomes. 1929 01:31:34,213 --> 01:31:37,173 Speaker 23: We know that there's more likelihood to survive if you're 1930 01:31:37,173 --> 01:31:39,253 Speaker 23: wearing a life jacket.

What about concerns that they 2187 01:45:57,893 --> 01:46:01,212 Speaker 2: go little dogs and they go other little mammals. 2188 01:46:02,013 --> 01:46:04,293 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's a fair concern. Well, they're all this, yes, 2189 01:46:04,452 --> 01:46:07,612 Speaker 5: and some of them just are simply not interested like 2190 01:46:07,652 --> 01:46:10,852 Speaker 5: some of mine and the others. You know, they once 2191 01:46:10,853 --> 01:46:12,492 Speaker 5: they have been a yes, we know which ones are 2192 01:46:12,492 --> 01:46:14,532 Speaker 5: going to be better not around small animals, and we 2193 01:46:14,612 --> 01:46:16,293 Speaker 5: just make sure we put them in a home where 2194 01:46:16,293 --> 01:46:18,852 Speaker 5: they're not around small animals. And we do encourage new 2195 01:46:18,853 --> 01:46:21,572 Speaker 5: owners to use precautions like you know, having a muzzle 2196 01:46:21,612 --> 01:46:23,412 Speaker 5: on them when they first go out a few times, 2197 01:46:23,492 --> 01:46:25,492 Speaker 5: and just until they get to really know the dog, 2198 01:46:25,572 --> 01:46:27,452 Speaker 5: until the dog knows that it's a pet now it 2199 01:46:27,452 --> 01:46:28,492 Speaker 5: doesn't need to chase things. 2200 01:46:28,652 --> 01:46:31,772 Speaker 3: Yeah, And so what does their rehoming process involve for 2201 01:46:32,053 --> 01:46:34,492 Speaker 3: both the dog and adopter? You mentioned some things there, 2202 01:46:34,492 --> 01:46:36,293 Speaker 3: but is their trial periods that sort of thing? 2203 01:46:38,093 --> 01:46:38,333 Speaker 11: Is there? 2204 01:46:38,333 --> 01:46:39,812 Speaker 3: What sorry trial periods? 2205 01:46:40,973 --> 01:46:43,333 Speaker 5: They're thought it? So what happens is that dogs get 2206 01:46:43,333 --> 01:46:46,213 Speaker 5: assessed when they first come into the rehoming program and 2207 01:46:46,253 --> 01:46:50,213 Speaker 5: then we match them based on that to adopters. So 2208 01:46:50,772 --> 01:46:52,933 Speaker 5: once an adopter comes to us, they fill out an 2209 01:46:52,933 --> 01:46:55,133 Speaker 5: application form and we match them with what we believe 2210 01:46:55,213 --> 01:46:58,652 Speaker 5: is going to be the perfect dog. Then really we 2211 01:46:59,053 --> 01:47:01,492 Speaker 5: support them through that. So we support them pre adoption, 2212 01:47:01,933 --> 01:47:05,652 Speaker 5: during adoption, and post adoption to make sure we've done 2213 01:47:05,732 --> 01:47:08,972 Speaker 5: everything we can to make that adoption a success, because 2214 01:47:08,973 --> 01:47:11,253 Speaker 5: we all want to see their dogs stay there forever. 2215 01:47:11,973 --> 01:47:15,293 Speaker 2: So how can people help out? How can people get involved? 2216 01:47:15,293 --> 01:47:16,692 Speaker 2: How can they get themselves a greyhound? 2217 01:47:18,053 --> 01:47:20,652 Speaker 5: Absolutely, so they just need to jump on our website. 2218 01:47:20,893 --> 01:47:23,572 Speaker 5: So Greyhounds is pets Dot or body and sad the know, 2219 01:47:23,853 --> 01:47:26,093 Speaker 5: go along to some of our events, but you know, 2220 01:47:26,372 --> 01:47:29,213 Speaker 5: come along and meet our rehomers, like putting in an 2221 01:47:29,213 --> 01:47:32,213 Speaker 5: application and start meeting some dogs.
