• 1:06
  Speaker 2: But we don't have unless you're in Iran, of course,
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: to the US and Irana back at it. The US
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: military targeting ten sites in Iran, Iran saying they are
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: throwing drones at Q eight and Bahrain we're here.
• 1:16
  Speaker 6: In quite strong rhetoric from both sides, President Trump saying
• 1:21
  Speaker 6: that if the war were to resume, which was quite
• 1:24
  Speaker 6: possible that it could do, Iran would cease to exist.
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: The last round for Ben Stokes, as soon as my
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: last two days as your.
• 1:31
  Speaker 6: Couple, my last two days as a.
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: As represented in England. Reasons can wait.
• 1:38
  Speaker 7: Why but I've had many trips to the world before,
• 1:42
  Speaker 7: for this team, for U Glotes, for people before hund
• 1:44
  Speaker 7: and I've got one more trip to do.
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: News came out was released during the game. England currently
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: seventy two for three. They need three hundred and one
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: runs to win the Test against the black Caps at
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: trent Bridge. Finally, this morning, Prince Harry's reportedly rethinking a
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: trip to the UK with Megan and the Kings. They'd
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: been planning their visit to Britain for four long years,
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: but they may be now in doubt. Why what is
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: going all on about his security again? He just won't
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: shut up about it.
• 2:11
  Speaker 8: It has been reported, therefore, that the security will be
• 2:14
  Speaker 8: provided to him if and while he's staying at a
• 2:18
  Speaker 8: rural residence, but not if he's outside of that.
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: In fact, Winda Ginger Winja.
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: Ryan Bridge on early edition with Spark for Business Technology
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: that keeps Business Moving News talk zib News talks itb It.
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: Is nine minutes after five nine two ninety two is
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: the number text. By the way, on Friday, we were
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: talking about the Wellington Library website. Do you remember that?
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: And how the redevelopment of this website constantly ratepayers something
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: like six hundred thousand dollars outrageous And we went onto
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: this website and we tried to search William Shakespeare to
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: see do they actually you know, is it just a
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: fancy website that's sort of a Hi, this is our
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: address and this is what we do. Or can you
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: actually search for books on there? And you couldn't even
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: search for William Shakespeare? Now either they don't stock William
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: Shakespeare unlikely. But then somebody had texted in and I
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: forgot to mention it on Friday, but I'm doing it
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: now that there are actually two sites. So there's already
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: a site that you can go to and search for books. Okay,
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: then there's this site which costs six hundred thousand dollars,
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: And again the question is why the hell does that
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: need to exist. Let's go to the weekend, and I
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: was looking at acts sort of rally, if that's what
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: you want to call it, over the weekend, A couple
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: of interesting things have popped out of this. One is
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: just the sheer number or cost of our job seeker benefits.
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: So did you know they've increased seventy three percent in
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: the past ten years. Probably won't surprise you, but job
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: seekert benefits on their own now cost us more than
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: we spend on policing and apparently twice as much as
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: we spend on the medicine budget now. I've always thought,
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: if I'm being just completely honest with your dear listener,
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: that if you come into hard times, you should be
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: able to get some sort of support, but it should
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: be temporary, like you shouldn't assume that you will be
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: fine forever, because I think everybody needs a little bit
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: of a rocket up the JACKSI that's just my view
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: on life and what I would do with the money
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: that you save by taking away the sort of endless
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: long term job seeker wrought, you would put into beneficiaries
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: who actually need it and can't do anything about their position.
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: The disabled, for example. I hate seeing those stories on
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: TV where they interview somebody who's got a disability something.
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: No one's running themselves into a bridge, you know, no
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: one's making themselves disabled. They have no choice in the matter.
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: And to try and live on the amount that they
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: are given each week, I think is incredibly tough. And
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: so if I was going to reform in any way
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: the whole system, I would say, if you can, you
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: should work. If you can't, you should get more so
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: that you're actually comfortable. You didn't choose to be in
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: that position. You have no options. You should be helped.
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: Bryan Bridge five, I'd love your views. Nine two nine
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: two the number to text. We will talk as well
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: about how many people are in the cabinet, how many
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: positions we have in cabinet. That's coming up. News Talks

  Speaker 1: Business Technology that keeps Business Moving.
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: News Talks B five point thirteen Westpac. On Friday, we
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: told you about west Pac and their predictions for an
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: ocr which was actually good news. They were saying that
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: we wouldn't need to hike as many times this year.
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: In fact, we'd only have two hikes this year by
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: Christmas rather than three. Well A and Z has since
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: come out saying no, they still think three three hikes
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: to the o CR. And this is despite the fact
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: because things are on the oil front at least looking good.
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: We've got prices and futures back to pre war levels.
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: We've got an MoU even though there's still skirmishes here
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: and there. We've got an MoU on fighting between the
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: US and Iran. House prices are they going to full?
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: They reckon two percent this year, so why on earth
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: are they still picking? I don't think that makes much sense.
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: Three increases back to three percent by Christmas, which would
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: have us back at neutral. I was at a furniture
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: store yesterday and despite their best efforts to try and
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: sale stuff, they just are having trouble doing that. And
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: they said that what's happening in the Middle East has
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: just kind of taken the shine off a little bit.
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: The spring out of the step of the consumer time
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: is fourteen after five, Ryan Bridge, Right, So Labour's promising
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: to expand the COVID era apprenticeship subsidy if it wins
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: the election.
• 6:48
  Speaker 9: There are so many young New Zealanders who would love
• 6:50
  Speaker 9: to get into the trades and they're just desperate for
• 6:52
  Speaker 9: the opportunity to do that. And we've got a lot
• 6:54
  Speaker 9: of feedback from those employers who would love to take
• 6:57
  Speaker 9: on an apprentice that they just need a bit more
• 6:58
  Speaker 9: financial support to be able to do that.
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: So current five hundred bucks a month employer payment into
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: a second year of training and more trades added two
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: hundred and twenty six million bucks over four years. The
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: costtionon Helbert the spokesperson, good morning, good morning. So what's
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: happening at the moment? They get one year and then
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: are they dumping the apprentice. Yeah.
• 7:20
  Speaker 10: The Apprenticeship Boost has always been a two year program
• 7:23
  Speaker 10: when established under Labor National CUTBA TACK twe year and
• 7:27
  Speaker 10: they reduced the amount that was allocated to support employers
• 7:30
  Speaker 10: to bring treaties on. So what we've put up is
• 7:33
  Speaker 10: adding in the second year. We've extended the eligibility criteria
• 7:38
  Speaker 10: to include additional industries. We want as many apprentices into
• 7:43
  Speaker 10: work as possible, and we want them to finish their qualifications.
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: And are they not? This is the point I'm getting at.
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: So National change it from two to one What is
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: the drop off rate being between when you had it
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: at too and when it was dropped to one.
• 7:59
  Speaker 10: Yeah, we thought numbers grow of apprentices. It's said at
• 8:03
  Speaker 10: about a thirty thirty five percent withdrawal rate. That's for
• 8:07
  Speaker 10: a number of reasons. That can range from a young
• 8:10
  Speaker 10: person suffering from poor mental health, that can be about
• 8:14
  Speaker 10: a relationship with an employer. People change jobs, for example,
• 8:19
  Speaker 10: and so we've added in a fund in this policy
• 8:23
  Speaker 10: to enable them to have wrap around support, to have
• 8:26
  Speaker 10: a one thousand dollars startup grant to make sure that
• 8:30
  Speaker 10: the barriers that they face going into work are eliminated.
• 8:33
  Speaker 10: As much as pop sorryfective focused on getting to work,
• 8:36
  Speaker 10: make you focused on that.
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: All sounds lovely and wrap around supportable sounds great. But
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: what I'm asking is, so I just want to see
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: how effective what the difference is, right of what National
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: did in putting it down to one year. When you
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: had it at two years and then it was changed
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: to one what was the drop off rate? Did people
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: start firing their apprentices because they couldn't afford them in
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: the second year and that's why you need this policy.
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: What was the change in numbers for apprentices?
• 9:04
  Speaker 10: Well, at that particular at time, there was seventeen thousand
• 9:07
  Speaker 10: more young people and apprenticeships than there are today, Ryan.
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: And ye, what year were they? That's crucial, isn't it,
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: Because you're only doing two, So we need to know
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: what was the difference between one and two? Do you
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: know what the difference? What the change was?
• 9:24
  Speaker 10: So research tells us that apprentices find that most difficult
• 9:28
  Speaker 10: within their first and their second year.
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: But remember it's not about what apprentices find difficult. Remember,
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: this is about what employers find difficult because you're giving
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: them the five hundred dollars a month, right, which they're
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: giving to the worker. So do you actually know what
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: the drop off rate was, Shannon, Well.
• 9:46
  Speaker 10: The drop off rate was about thirty percent with an apprenticeship.
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: And what is it now?
• 9:51
  Speaker 10: It's about both the employer and the apprentice, right, What
• 9:55
  Speaker 10: is it now? Well, it's sitting at about thirty percent, right.
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: So so the drop off rate has not changed. So you're
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: putting money in even though you'll have the same number
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: of kids withdrawing from apprenticeships as you did. Then, I mean,
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: does that make sense?
• 10:12
  Speaker 10: What makes sense, Ryan, is that there's seventeen thousand less
• 10:15
  Speaker 10: young people and apprenticeships that will we left government. This
• 10:19
  Speaker 10: program is about boosting that. We want to make as
• 10:22
  Speaker 10: many job opportunities possible for those young people and we
• 10:26
  Speaker 10: want to support employers to create those opportunities. So that's
• 10:29
  Speaker 10: why we've put in a first year and the second
• 10:31
  Speaker 10: year to sort support employers to do so.
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: Shannon Helbert, Labour spokesperson for tertiary Education, time is eighteen
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: after five. Ryan's bridge, is that what you will? Hey?
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: Very quickly, there's a new poll out of Australia News
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: poll conducted for The Australian. It was Monday to Thursday
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: last week and Paul Enhansen one notion, they've taken a
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: little bit of a dip. They are down from thirty
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: one to twenty nine percent. Labor is up from thirty
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: to thirty three percent now they reckon the reason for
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: that is they've walked back some of the you turned
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: on some of the more ugly budget stuff that they
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: announced just a few weeks ago and Charmer's budget. And
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: as for the Coalition, well they are down to a
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: historic low of seventeen percent. News Talks VB the.

  Speaker 1: for Business Technology that Keeps Business Moving, News Talks EDB News.
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: Talks EDB time is twenty one minutes after five. Good morning, Ryan,
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: good question there. I don't think anything will change. This
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: is Labour's apprenticeship announcement over the weekend. Anything will change
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: except a whole lot of people lining up to get
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: next one thousand dollars and then I'll leave for reasons
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: that they always leave. You can't blame a government because
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: people have mental health and employment problems. Usual labor throw
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: the cash policy. Are lots of feedback on the interview
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: with tables Shannon Hell, but also a little bit on
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: if you are getting a disability benefit versus a job
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: seeker benefit because you actually can't work. We'll get to
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: those texts in just a few seconds. Brian Bridge. So
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: it is Vicky Price and Business Vicky Good morning, Good morning.
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: So's Andy Burnham is likely to be the next PM?
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: What is next? I see that they've sort of done
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: something or announced something around the potential for the defense
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: deal to be done. But this is a big speech
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: happening Monday your time.
• 12:30
  Speaker 3: No, absolutely I mean the defense deal which wasn't being
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: sort of concluded, which already led to a resignation of
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: the Defense Minister. One of the reasons why we've actually
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: had this very rapid resignation by the Prime Minister, which
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: happened on Monday. We're meant to be hearing a little
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: bit more about some extra money coming onto this. It's
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: not going to be sufficient, and I think there's still
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: going to be some debate. There is a question mark,
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: and you're quite right about the speech which the possible replacement,
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: because of course we just need to wait and see
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: whether someone else decides to put their hat in the ring.
• 13:07
  Speaker 3: Andy Burnham is speaking today Monday about what his plan,
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: his economic plan is likely to be, but I don't
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: think he's going to say an awful lot. But to
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: have already more or less moved ahead on the defense
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: side with some a little bit of extra money without
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: consulting him, I'm not sure whether he's being consultant or
• 13:30
  Speaker 3: whether he's happy with this. So it may need to
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: be reopened and that's the real question. And that's not
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: just in terms of defense. There's quite a lot that
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: has been going on, Announcements being made by the Chancellor
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: right now, who may well be replaced, which a new
• 13:46
  Speaker 3: premise that may find hard to reverse. So we are
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: in a situation where there is a lot of uncertainty
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: as to what's actually going to happen. That's why everyone's
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: going to be listening to Anti Burnham's speech with great interest.
• 13:58
  Speaker 3: Is one can imagine.
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: Absolutely VICKI very briefly on a brickset, which I know
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: has not been a brief aberration for the UK, but
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: I've been reading because twenty third, well on the twenty third,
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: so what a week ago they were talking about the
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: fact that it was ten years since brickset. Generally, though,
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: people aren't saying the solution like it's been bad, but
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: the solution is not to rejoin.
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: Well, for some people the solution is to rejoin. But
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: what we've already heard is from the person who is
• 14:30
  Speaker 3: likely to be Prime Minister Andy Burnham. He had said
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: a little while ago that he'd like to rejoin at
• 14:35
  Speaker 3: some point. He doesn't want to reopen the Brexit debate
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: right now, but there's no doubt that we're going to
• 14:41
  Speaker 3: need to have a serious look at what sort of
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: a reset might be containing. So because there've been discussions
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: with Europe on this, and we already decided to align
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: a lot of our regulations with Europe in order to
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: get closer. A lot of concern of course about movement
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: of people and so on, but there's no doubt that
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: the economy has suffered over the last ten years. And
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: of course at the same time politically we've had so
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: many changes of pms and you can actually attribute a
• 15:11
  Speaker 3: lot of that to brexits. So I'm afraid we can't
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: leave that in the air. Something needs to happen, and
• 15:18
  Speaker 3: whether we have another refriendable, whether we just decide perhaps
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: to have closer links and be maybe like Switzerland or
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: which has very close links but isn't actually in the EU. Also,
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: the possibilities are out there that need to be considered
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: by the new Prime minister, and they cannot be ignored
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: because if he wants growth, he needs to get closer
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: to Europe.
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: You've got to get it from somewhere, don't you. There's
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: Lucky Price, that business correspondent. Always good to have you
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: on a Monday morning, Vicky, thank you very much. Twenty
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: five minutes after five. So the opposite of bricks it
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: is what brinter are We going to have that debate now,
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: that'll be so exciting for the UK. Twenty six minutes
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: after five, If you're on news talks, it'd be I'll
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: tell you what I think about the Opportunity Party getting
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: in next news talks b twenty eight after five on
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: your Monday morning. I don't reckon Opportunity will hit five
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: percent this election. It's fun to flirt, isn't it. People
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: get frustrated in their relationships with their respective parties and
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: then you go out and flirt. But I was there
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: when Colin Crai got closed and failed. Saw Gareth Morgan
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: do the same. Jeff Simmons remember him, had a crack,
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: failed to I encourage anyone listening to actually look at
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: their policies, do the maths and figure it out for themselves.
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: How much worse or Bester I suppose you'll off, you'll
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: be their new leader. Is a great communicator. Data Bautic
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: Qla Wong. Her main job was an environmental carbon advisor
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: to businesses. Now I don't really know what that means,
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: but she's lovely. She's really lovely, and she's smart. The
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: problem with getting to five percent is timing. The closer
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: we get to the election. This flirt, this fascination, this honeymoon,
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: if you will, will have worn off. Voters will go
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: into the booth trying to keep one side in or
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: one side out, and there is little room for flights
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: of fancy in a polling booth. Like opportunity, the other
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: thing people do in the polling booth is take out insurance.
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: By election week, it is pretty clear if you're listening,
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: if your is to the ground, who's doing well and
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: who is not. So voters take out insurance. It's why
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: I have said consistently since last year that I think
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: Winston will do well this year. Labor voters, not national
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: I think, will slide into his DMS. He's offering them
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: everything Hipkins is short of a labor government. As for
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: Opportunity or Top the Opportunities Party or whatever it is
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: they're called, well, you don't know which way they're going.
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: That is their strength, but it's also when it comes
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: down to the day of polling a weakness. News Talk zb.

  Speaker 2: They'd be great to have your company this morning. It
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: is Monday, and we will get to the UK shortly.
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: We'll speak to our correspondent about Harry's trip or is
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: the trip going to happen to the UK with his family.
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: We'll also head to Tel Aviv on Iran. I think
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: that we have got this, and I did say this
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: at the time. I think National's got it a bit
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: back to front. They've done a back to front jobby
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: on the restructuring of the public service, because out top
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: is where you know. Normally, if you do a restructure,
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: you say you start at the top, and you go, okay,
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: these are the business units we want to have. These
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: are the leaders we need, and then who reports to
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: who underneath them? Right? And so what the National has
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: done is announced and the government, i should say, has
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: announced a public service rejig. We're going to cut jobs,
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: we're going to merge ministries, blah blah blah. But at
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: the top you have eighty portfolios in the executive eighty
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: portfolios between those ministers. It's outrageous. I wrote about this
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: last February. Ireland, Norway, Singapore, Finland all have fewer than
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: twenty portfolios. We have eighty. Why do we have eighty?
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: The UK, Canada, the US career all much larger than us,
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: fewer than thirty, we have eighty. Why do we have eighty?
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: Makes no sense. So one of the things that came
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: out of the Act Party thing at the weekend, which
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: I thought was good, is they're saying, here is a
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: very simple rule, a very simple formula. We will have
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: nineteen departments and we will have eighteen ministers. Nineteen departments,
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: eighteen ministers, and then you rearrange your public service behind it.
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: I think that makes sense. Can Shire Away from six
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: nineteen ninety two, Callum and indeed in morning callumning Ryan,
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: what's happening around the hospital precinct there? We'll all go.
• 19:46
  Speaker 7: Major upgrades to the area around the new build are continuing.
• 19:50
  Speaker 7: The huge cranes being erected on the inpatient site. Are
• 19:54
  Speaker 7: certainly plenty of activity and roadworks in our underway as
• 19:57
  Speaker 7: well on State Highway One around this construction site. From today,
• 20:01
  Speaker 7: the northbound cycleway on Cumberland Streets being shifted completely to
• 20:05
  Speaker 7: allow construction access to the inpatient building site. The diversion
• 20:09
  Speaker 7: includes some overnight work. It'll see right hand traffic lane
• 20:13
  Speaker 7: temporarily closed at times overnight. The altered cycleway route will
• 20:17
  Speaker 7: remain in place until the inpatient buildings completed in twenty
• 20:20
  Speaker 7: thirty one. The outpatient buildings expected to open later this year.
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: How's your weather?
• 20:27
  Speaker 7: A bit of a wit start, but the drizzly morning
• 20:29
  Speaker 7: clearing this afternoon to find the light winds and ten.
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: Nice one, thank you clear on christ It morning, clear,
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: good morning. You've got a viral fitness comp ei. This
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: is High Rocks doing the new stadium?
• 20:39
  Speaker 11: Is it well?
• 20:40
  Speaker 8: Wanted to go into the new stadium, but new stalks
• 20:42
  Speaker 8: be can today reveal that this High Rocks event, for
• 20:45
  Speaker 8: those who don't know it, combines running with these workout stations,
• 20:49
  Speaker 8: was planned for six days in August at the new stadium.
• 20:53
  Speaker 8: The hybrid fitness craze has taken off on social media.
• 20:56
  Speaker 8: It's made its New Zealand debut in Auckland earlier this year,
• 20:59
  Speaker 8: but christ Such City Council's documents showed that turf specialists
• 21:02
  Speaker 8: had warned the event posed a significant risk to the
• 21:05
  Speaker 8: new field due to the heavy use. And they're not
• 21:08
  Speaker 8: enough time for it to recover. Of course, MPC rugby
• 21:11
  Speaker 8: games as she drilled both before and after the dates planned.
• 21:15
  Speaker 8: Organizers were initially asked to look at some other options,
• 21:17
  Speaker 8: including choosing a different venue in christ Church or maybe
• 21:20
  Speaker 8: even a different date, but then the event was dropped.
• 21:24
  Speaker 8: Venues Auto Tahi says it can't make any further comment
• 21:27
  Speaker 8: due to commercial sensitivity.
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: Sounds good. How's your weather?
• 21:31
  Speaker 8: Occasional drizzle clearing in the evening that will remain mostly cloudy,
• 21:34
  Speaker 8: southwesterlies and eleven degrees.
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: Right, Thank you, Claire to Beis Macintosh, Wellington, Good morning
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: to beas Good morning Ryan. Now you got a pipe
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: blockage there?
• 21:42
  Speaker 12: I had one, yeah, and it seems to be Wellington's
• 21:47
  Speaker 12: never ending story. Wellington Water crew spent most of Saturday
• 21:51
  Speaker 12: locating the blockage, which caused a manhole cover to burst
• 21:54
  Speaker 12: open on State Highway too. I actually closed the road
• 21:57
  Speaker 12: nearver no Longer exit. The overflow distars up to one
• 22:00
  Speaker 12: hundred and ten liters of diluted wastewater as per second
• 22:04
  Speaker 12: into the harbor, with a small amount actually reaching the
• 22:07
  Speaker 12: highway itself. Wellington Water says this was not caused by
• 22:11
  Speaker 12: aging infrastructure, but rather a block pipe packed with fat, oil,
• 22:16
  Speaker 12: grease and wet wipes. Chief Operating Officer Charles Barker says,
• 22:20
  Speaker 12: and no wastewater infrastructure is designed to handle people putting
• 22:23
  Speaker 12: the wrong things down the toilet. Another concern I'm sure
• 22:27
  Speaker 12: though for Tiaki y who are set to take over
• 22:29
  Speaker 12: Wellington's infrastructure from Wednesday.
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: Terrible. How's your weather?
• 22:34
  Speaker 12: A few showers this morning should clear into a fine
• 22:36
  Speaker 12: day though eleven degrees how high.
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: Thanks to bears. It's people with babies that are doing
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: this that the wet wipes thing is that it's not
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: it's not adults using wet wipes. It's people with babies.
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: It's parents, isn't it? Never?
• 22:50
  Speaker 13: Oh you asking me, I thought, well, that's what I
• 22:53
  Speaker 13: as soon as I heard that, I'm wat do you
• 22:55
  Speaker 13: on that? Because I'm thinking, who the hell puts the
• 22:58
  Speaker 13: white down the no? But I think adults probably do.
• 23:03
  Speaker 13: You never know they could be washing their face while
• 23:05
  Speaker 13: they're sitting on the air, or who's using I don't
• 23:11
  Speaker 13: I think it's yeah, No, you're right, it's babies. But
• 23:13
  Speaker 13: it won't surprise me that there could be a few
• 23:15
  Speaker 13: adults in the air. Let's throw that one in the mix.
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: Hey, Auckland's network train operator increases work forced by twenty percent.
• 23:21
  Speaker 11: Yay, yes.
• 23:22
  Speaker 13: Now, obviously this is the head of the City rail Link,
• 23:24
  Speaker 13: which is opening later this year, so exciting. Auckland won rail,
• 23:28
  Speaker 13: that's what it's called. It's hired forty train crew and
• 23:32
  Speaker 13: apparently fifty customer experience staff so CRL operations director that
• 23:37
  Speaker 13: is Louise Pingali.
• 23:39
  Speaker 4: She says.
• 23:39
  Speaker 13: It will mean a max of new talent and experience.
• 23:43
  Speaker 4: She says.
• 23:43
  Speaker 13: The next step though, it's training staff on a variety
• 23:45
  Speaker 13: of things because they need to be trained on new
• 23:47
  Speaker 13: driving techniques. Evacuation procedures very very important, so you know,
• 23:53
  Speaker 13: she says. Look, mainly the aim is to make sure
• 23:55
  Speaker 13: that staff and commuters are confident to use the city
• 23:59
  Speaker 13: rail Link.
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: From one Ryan fantastic, nev I love it. How's our weather?
• 24:03
  Speaker 6: Fine?
• 24:04
  Speaker 13: Fifteen is a high lovely weather here in Auckland.
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: It is eighteen minutes away from six cryan bread. So
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: this is the problem when you start putting limits on AI.
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: So Trump administration limits the use of AI models like
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: Anthropics fable because of security risks. Also they did some
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: with Mythos five and who has overtaken them? The Chinese.
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: So Chinese artificial intelligence systems have matched the performance of
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: Mythos in some cybersecurity scenario. So the risk here, this
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: is the moral of the story. You try and put
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: a lid on it, say, well, we don't want Ai
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: getting out of control. Well, pro if you cannot stop progress,
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: it's going to happen and someone else will overtake you.
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: And from a security perspective, you would rather it was
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: you breaking all the rules and bending all the rules
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: than your opponents, wouldn't you? Nine two the number to text.
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: Has anybody actually ever used a wet white? I mean,
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: I just find this horrific. I've had new toilets installed
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: at my house and I said to them, because I
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: don't know if you've noticed this, but the size of
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: toilets have significantly there's shrink flation with the size of
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: a toilet. They've gotten markedly smaller. And I'm a big person,
• 25:16
  Speaker 2: so I need a big toilet, right. So I went
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: to the store and I said, I need I want
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: a big toilet, and we got two of them, and
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: that one they have much better flush. There's the mountain.
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: It's like the hook of falls every time you press
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: the button. But the other thing that happens is you
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: don't get the build up. Okay that you do want
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: a little loop now. I don't know why they've made
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: them smaller, probably because they're cheaper and people have smaller
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: houses so they can't fit them. But I like a
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: big toilet and I make no apologies for that. But
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: who the hell is using wetwipes? Get in the bin.
• 25:48
  Speaker 2: You're on news talks thereb It's fourteen minutes away from
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: six England. There's one hundred and three for four right now.
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: They need two hundred and seventy runs to win the
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: Test against the Black Caps of trent Bridge. By the way,
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: Ben Stokes announced that he is retiring from international cricket.
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: Will have more or in sport at top of the hour,
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: Morning Ryan. Unfortunately, we've been talking about the blockages of
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: the toilets. Have a mess of one in Wellington. It's
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: not the parents that are putting the witwipes down the toilet.
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: If you've ever had kids, you know that it goes
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: with the nepy bern next to your changing station. I'm sorry,
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: but you're wrong. This is Chris. It's not parents, it's
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: somebody else. So who's doing it? Two. It is thirteen
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: two International correspondence with ins and Eye Insurance, Peace of
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: Mind for New Zealand Business. Javin Gray with US Live
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: from the UK Gvidence. Harry comming or is he not coming?
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: Are the kids coming? Are they not coming? What do
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: we know?
• 26:36
  Speaker 11: Yeah, a very good question, I think ran at the moment.
• 26:38
  Speaker 11: We are probably going to see Harry come on his
• 26:41
  Speaker 11: own unless the issue has been resolved. So the Duke
• 26:45
  Speaker 11: of Sussex was due to come from California to the
• 26:47
  Speaker 11: UK with his two children, Archie and Lillibet, and of
• 26:50
  Speaker 11: course his wife Megan for their first family visit to
• 26:53
  Speaker 11: the UK in four years, and there was a request
• 26:57
  Speaker 11: from his team for extra security. This is all about
• 27:01
  Speaker 11: announcing the one year to go before the next Games
• 27:05
  Speaker 11: that Harry has organized the Invictus Games for injured military personnel,
• 27:10
  Speaker 11: and it was all going smoothly. The household, Royal Household
• 27:14
  Speaker 11: had said where you can stay in one of the
• 27:16
  Speaker 11: royal lodges, so that appeared to be an olive branch.
• 27:20
  Speaker 11: But where the sticking point is is over security, because
• 27:24
  Speaker 11: it's been revealed to Harry and Meghan that dolthough they
• 27:26
  Speaker 11: will have security when they are staying on a royal estate,
• 27:30
  Speaker 11: they will have to rely on private security traveling with
• 27:33
  Speaker 11: them from California when they aren't at the royal estate.
• 27:37
  Speaker 11: Harriet said, he doesn't feel safe about that. He wants
• 27:39
  Speaker 11: this all reviewed, but this, of course has already been
• 27:42
  Speaker 11: in court and the decision committee, the so called VIP
• 27:46
  Speaker 11: Executive Committee, or RABIC as it's called, said no, he
• 27:50
  Speaker 11: doesn't need that security level, and that appears to be
• 27:53
  Speaker 11: the stumbling block yet again here Ryan, and it's going
• 27:57
  Speaker 11: to make for some very very difficult negotiations over the
• 27:59
  Speaker 11: next few hours before he arrives.
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: All right, Keevin, Hey, how has there been Stokes news
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: going down over there?
• 28:05
  Speaker 12: Yeah?
• 28:05
  Speaker 11: It's quite a shock, isn't it? And boy did they
• 28:08
  Speaker 11: look like I think he was trying to win the
• 28:10
  Speaker 11: match on his own, so I'm not sure that the
• 28:12
  Speaker 11: day five ticket will be worth very much. But yeah,
• 28:16
  Speaker 11: it's been quite a shock. I don't know if there's
• 28:19
  Speaker 11: any background to this about the trouble he got into,
• 28:21
  Speaker 11: of course after drinking this in the last test or
• 28:24
  Speaker 11: where that at his age mid thirties, he's quite simply
• 28:27
  Speaker 11: had enough. But gosh, he used to make things happen.
• 28:30
  Speaker 11: Then he was always box office, so.
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: He will be missed certainly. Devin Gray are UK europe
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: correspondent time as living away from six now Ryan Bridge. Well,
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: the US had around a beckheaded again strikes exchanging each other,
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: accusing each other, I should say, of violating the ceasefire
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: Iran targeting Bahrain and Qaight. Of course they are proxies
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: or they are allies. I should say, the US in
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: the region and the US striking ten targets inside of Iran.
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: Trump warning he'll complete the job. All of the stuff
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: we've heard before, of course, but it continues. Linda Gregstein
• 28:59
  Speaker 2: is freelance journalist and lecture and journalism at NYU Tel Aviv,
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: joining us this morning London. Is this how much of
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: this is to do with what's happening with his bullet
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: and Lebanon and the fact that that's being included in
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: this agreement. We'll come back to well part of it.
• 29:24
  Speaker 14: I mean, you know, the United States, the Israel and
• 29:29
  Speaker 14: Lebanon signed a deal. I'm here, Yes, can you hear me?
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: Got you a loud and clear There's a long delay,
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: but we would appreciate your answer.
• 29:39
  Speaker 14: Hello, do you hear me?
• 29:43
  Speaker 3: Hello?
• 29:48
  Speaker 14: Sure? I think it has something to do with it.
• 29:52
  Speaker 14: But it also, you know, there seems to be a
• 29:55
  Speaker 14: contradiction because according to the ceasefire between Iran and the
• 30:01
  Speaker 14: United States let included and Israel has to withdraw from Lebanon.
• 30:05
  Speaker 14: According to the agreement sign between Israel and Lebanon, Israel
• 30:09
  Speaker 14: can stay in Lebanon. So there's some contradiction here. But
• 30:14
  Speaker 14: it's also kind of everybody flexing their muscles. It's the
• 30:17
  Speaker 14: same time, it does seem that both the United States
• 30:21
  Speaker 14: and Iran do not want a torpedo this sixty day ceasefire.
• 30:25
  Speaker 14: Neither side seems interested in returning to conflict.
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: Certainly, that is great news. Linda will leave it there.
• 30:32
  Speaker 2: Linda Gradstein with US freelance journalist and lecturer at NYU
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: Tel Aviv. It is nine minutes away from six. So
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: very briefly, an update on the situation with Russia and Ukraine. So,
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: Ukraine is promising forty days of terror against the Russians.
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: They've just issued this morning. So they hit an oil
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: refinery in Russia over the weekend, and Zelenski has now
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: ordered forty days of intense strikes against Russia to press
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: Vladimir put In to end the war. We will follow progress.
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: Also this morning, we're getting a clearer picture because you know,
• 31:03
  Speaker 2: one of the reasons that Starma got in trouble was
• 31:05
  Speaker 2: this defense plan. Where is it? What is it? And
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: herey the old defense minister. He quit because they weren't
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: getting enough money for defense. Now, remember Trump's pulling out
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: of Europe, well, weakening his relationship with NATO, and they
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: all meant to step up to the plate, and so
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: Starmer wasn't giving heally enough money. He quits, right, So
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: now there's a new defense plan. They're going to announce
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: it at a NATO meeting this week apparently, and they're
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: going for instead of destroyers and frigates, they're going for drones,
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: which is no surprise. I mean, there will be the
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: odd frigate announcement. Apparently autonomous vehicles are king. The total
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: spend will be this is, according to the Telegraph, fifteen billion.
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: And the report that sparked all of this saying you
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: need to renew your arms, modernize your armed forces. Well
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: they wanted twenty eight billion, so you're halfway there. His
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: talk said, be before the news freaks. You're at first.
