Speaker 2: The eighth of August. Thailand's Move Forward Party has been
0:59
Speaker 2: dissolved by a court after being blocked from forming a
1:02
Speaker 2: government despite winning its election in twenty twenty three. The
1:05
Speaker 2: party had proposed making changes to a law which prevents
1:08
Speaker 2: people from defaming Thailand's Royal Family.
1:11
Speaker 3: Party leader Peter Linda Lanroth and ten others will likely
1:17
Speaker 3: be banned from politics for a decade in Thailand, they
1:21
Speaker 3: won't be able to form other political parties in future.
1:25
Speaker 2: Don't mess with the queen. Most MPs who are in
1:27
Speaker 2: the party can keep their seats, but only if they
1:30
Speaker 2: move to a new party and they've got sixty days
1:32
Speaker 2: to do it. Back here, energy costs are in the
1:35
Speaker 2: spotlight again as another paper mill looks to shut its doors.
1:39
Speaker 2: Auckland's og Fiber Solutions recycling mill has put forward a
1:42
Speaker 2: proposal to close, noting rising energy prices as one of
1:47
Speaker 2: several issues impacting revenue. It comes to stays after Windstone
1:51
Speaker 2: set its pulp and timber mills near O'kuni are looking
1:54
Speaker 2: to close also due to high power costs. Plus you
1:57
Speaker 2: add to that methodex in Taranaki. The two U Union
2:00
Speaker 2: negotiations specialist Joe Gallagher says prices need to be rained in.
2:05
Speaker 4: We have to look at wastes.
2:06
Speaker 5: Have been sure that we have a strong manufacturing based
2:08
Speaker 5: in New Zealand because a lot of these mills and
2:10
Speaker 5: companies are critical to a rural New Zealand.
2:14
Speaker 1: The news you need this morning and the in depth
2:16
Speaker 1: analysis early edition with Ryan Bridge and Swis City New
2:20
Speaker 1: Zealand's furniture beds and a planing store.
2:22
Speaker 2: News Talk said, be yeah, there are a lot of
2:24
Speaker 2: jobs on the line. And it's interesting to hear the
2:26
Speaker 2: Air two union say that prices, energy prices, electricity prices,
2:31
Speaker 2: gas prices need to come down. That's the same union
2:34
Speaker 2: that endorsed the just transition of just Sindra a Dern's era.
2:39
Speaker 2: I wonder how they feel about that now. Also this morning,
2:43
Speaker 2: Adrian Or have been thinking about him. Yesterday afternoon I
2:47
Speaker 2: noticed that brad Olsen had come out and said because
2:51
Speaker 2: the job start we got was largely in line with
2:54
Speaker 2: what the Reserve Bank had predicted, and based on those predictions,
2:58
Speaker 2: the Reserve Bank said we don't need to cut rates
3:01
Speaker 2: until next year. If Adriane Or and the committee that
3:05
Speaker 2: goes away and decides these things, if they come back
3:08
Speaker 2: and say, actually we do need to cut now, then
3:12
Speaker 2: what the hell was the predictions and what were they
3:15
Speaker 2: based on in the first place. And brad Olsen says
3:18
Speaker 2: heads should have to roll if that situation played out.
3:22
Speaker 2: I don't know. I'm starting to feel No, you don't
3:24
Speaker 2: feel do you feel sorry for Adrian Or? I mean,
3:26
Speaker 2: it's an impossible situation. Isn't it. Because the counterfactual as well,
3:31
Speaker 2: if he lowers interest rates and then inflation goes up again,
3:36
Speaker 2: creeps up again, that non tradable inflation that's sticky. The
3:39
Speaker 2: domestic inflation doesn't seem to be moving much. If that happened,
3:45
Speaker 2: imagine what we'd say then, you know, we'd be hanging it.
3:49
Speaker 2: I shouldn't say that, hanging in the streets. We would
3:52
Speaker 2: be very very angry, wouldn't we because it would just
3:55
Speaker 2: prolong the whole We'd have to start again, you know,
3:58
Speaker 2: and then psychological you'd have to start again for those
4:01
Speaker 2: businesses that are laying people off, and you know when
4:04
Speaker 2: people are going to start spending again. All of that stuff.
4:07
Speaker 2: The Employees and Manufacturers Association. By the way, Allan McDonald's
4:10
Speaker 2: on just before six, he has some interesting data about
4:14
Speaker 2: who's calling and how many of his members are calling
4:17
Speaker 2: for advice on how to how to basically how to
4:21
Speaker 2: get rid of people restructuring, and also the ninety day
4:25
Speaker 2: trial periods that for you just after six coming up next,
4:29
Speaker 2: here's this houses for a fact, five percent of KIW
4:32
Speaker 2: kids are getting their required recommended nutrients every day.
4:40
Speaker 1: Get ahead of the headlines. Ryan Bridge you for twenty
4:43
Speaker 1: twenty four on early edition with Smith City, New Zealand's
4:47
Speaker 1: furniture beds and a playing store. News Talks said.
4:50
Speaker 2: Be thirteen after five. News Talks said be The women's
4:53
Speaker 2: pole Vault final is happening right now. We have three
4:56
Speaker 2: kiwis in contention. Actually I think we now have two
4:58
Speaker 2: kiwis in contention and including Eliza McCartney. Will keep you
5:01
Speaker 2: up to date with that. Plus the Women's Pursuit cycling
5:04
Speaker 2: team are going for gold this morning just before five
5:07
Speaker 2: point thirty. Will bring you that race live. Also inside
5:10
Speaker 2: the next half our, Ginny Anderson on why Mark Mitchell
5:13
Speaker 2: won't let her visit a police station right now though
5:17
Speaker 2: it's a more important business. Soaring food prices are taking
5:20
Speaker 2: a toll on our kids. This is published a new
5:24
Speaker 2: report published this morning. It's published in the Journal of
5:27
Speaker 2: Royal Society of New Zealand by the University of Auckland.
5:30
Speaker 2: It found food basket prices increased by thirty five percent
5:35
Speaker 2: in the six years from twenty eighteen to December of
5:39
Speaker 2: last year. This is for healthy food for families. It
5:44
Speaker 2: means it's virtually impossible for a family on a benefit
5:46
Speaker 2: to afford healthy food, and with more than one third
5:50
Speaker 2: of kids being overweight or obese, it's even more reasons
5:54
Speaker 2: to be concerned. The Health Coalition ALTAEDO are Food Policy
5:57
Speaker 2: Expert Advisory Group cod CH heare Sally mackay is with us.
6:02
Speaker 2: She's a nutritionist. Sally. Good morning, Sally. Can you hear me?
6:10
Speaker 2: I think we might have to try and get us Sally?
6:13
Speaker 4: Are you there? Yes?
6:15
Speaker 2: I am there. We go tell me how concerning? Is
6:18
Speaker 2: this one of the interesting things I read in the report?
6:22
Speaker 2: Just five point four percent of kids aged two to
6:25
Speaker 2: fourteen years eat the recommended veggies per day.
6:30
Speaker 6: Yes, that is very concerning. And the recommendations for vegetables
6:35
Speaker 6: did actually change in the last few years, and the
6:38
Speaker 6: recommendation is now a little bit higher than it was,
6:41
Speaker 6: which is another reason why that figure does look so low.
6:45
Speaker 6: But even before the recommendations changed, many of our children
6:50
Speaker 6: were not getting enough vegetables every day.
6:53
Speaker 2: Are they too high the recommendations? I was having a
6:55
Speaker 2: look at it. I think it's if you're twelve to thirteen,
6:58
Speaker 2: it's five vs gees per day and two pieces of
7:02
Speaker 2: fruit per day. I mean, is that a bit much?
7:05
Speaker 2: I mean, if ninety five percent of kids aren't doing it.
7:09
Speaker 6: Well. The recommendations, I guess are something to aim for,
7:13
Speaker 6: and even if you can get close to those recommendations
7:17
Speaker 6: then that would be better for your health. With vegetables,
7:20
Speaker 6: the more you eat the better. So yeah, if you're
7:23
Speaker 6: getting close, then that's not so bad. And we do
7:27
Speaker 6: do a little bit better on the fruit as well,
7:29
Speaker 6: but still about half of our children don't get enough
7:31
Speaker 6: fruit and those recommendations are quite manageable at only two
7:35
Speaker 6: pieces per day.
7:37
Speaker 2: What is the impact of the last few years on
7:41
Speaker 2: low income families when it comes to healthy food.
7:46
Speaker 6: Well, we've seen that there's a lot more food parcels
7:52
Speaker 6: that have been given out and the latest data on
7:55
Speaker 6: food in security in New Zealand shows that one in
7:58
Speaker 6: five children household they often or sometimes run out of food.
8:03
Speaker 6: So obviously this impacts those children that don't get enough
8:06
Speaker 6: to eat, and in particular it impacts their learning when
8:10
Speaker 6: they're at school, and that's what we're really concerned about.
8:13
Speaker 2: And this is basically this research is basically a new
8:16
Speaker 2: tool to measure the cost of feeding kids.
8:19
Speaker 6: Well, yes, so we have that New Zealand has a
8:23
Speaker 6: food price index and they publish the prices of about
8:28
Speaker 6: over one hundred foods every month, and so this way
8:32
Speaker 6: we can keep track of what it costs to feed
8:34
Speaker 6: a family very easily with this tool that has been developed.
8:39
Speaker 2: The sad thing here is those families who are on benefits.
8:42
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, it is hard when you're on
8:45
Speaker 2: a fixed income like that. Surely we need to be
8:48
Speaker 2: encouraging more families into work.
8:52
Speaker 6: Well, we need to. I mean for some families, the
8:56
Speaker 6: reasons they're on the benefit because it is difficul call
9:00
Speaker 6: to work and they need to be on it. So, yes,
9:04
Speaker 6: while we do want some families to work, we want
9:06
Speaker 6: those that have to be on the benefit to be
9:08
Speaker 6: able to afford healthy food. And often it's the other
9:12
Speaker 6: cost like the rent and the transport and the electricity
9:16
Speaker 6: that mean that there's not very much left over for
9:18
Speaker 6: food at the end of the day.
9:20
Speaker 2: Yeah, sorry, No, I was referring to the job seekert there.
9:24
Speaker 2: Does this include do this research look at you know,
9:27
Speaker 2: the schools providing lunches for kids, families who might be
9:32
Speaker 2: gardening or growing their own food that kind of stuff.
9:35
Speaker 6: No, it doesn't, and we have done some other research
9:39
Speaker 6: that shows obviously if you are gathering or growing your
9:44
Speaker 6: own food from other sources then that will bring that down.
9:47
Speaker 6: And the Healthy School Lunch is program that does provide
9:51
Speaker 6: a free lunch to about a quarter of our children.
9:54
Speaker 6: Of course, that is going to help those families with
9:58
Speaker 6: their budgets, and research has that it does reduce the
10:02
Speaker 6: food budget per week. So we're pleased to see that
10:06
Speaker 6: the government has kept the Healthy School Lunches program and
10:10
Speaker 6: it would be great if it could reach more children.
10:12
Speaker 2: All right, Sally, thank you very much for your time.
10:14
Speaker 2: That's doctor Sally McKay. She's with the Health Coalition Altered. Oh,
10:18
Speaker 2: it just got eighteen minutes after five. How many vigies
10:21
Speaker 2: do you eat every day? I struggle to think I
10:24
Speaker 2: had a lot of eggs. I think only I only
10:26
Speaker 2: really have veggies at dinner to be honest with you,
10:28
Speaker 2: and I don't have any fruit. Does that make me unhealthy?
10:32
Speaker 2: Or does that just make me like the ninety five
10:35
Speaker 2: percent of New Zealand children who aren't meeting the recommended
10:39
Speaker 2: daily dose of veggies and fruit. Nineteen after five Ginny
10:42
Speaker 2: Anderson Next.
10:44
Speaker 1: On your radio and online on iHeartRadio Early Edition with
10:49
Speaker 1: Ryan Bridge and Smith City, New Zealand's Furniture, Beds and
10:52
Speaker 1: a Plying Store news Talk.
10:54
Speaker 2: Sa'd be it is twenty one after five year on
10:56
Speaker 2: news Talk said be, we're in a race to get
10:58
Speaker 2: to a race five twenty eight this morning, the women's
11:01
Speaker 2: pursuit cycle team is in a gold medal race. We're
11:04
Speaker 2: going to bring it for you live right now. Though
11:06
Speaker 2: in Well, I suppose it's petty politics. We're going to
11:10
Speaker 2: Ginny Anderson, who's the Labor police spokesperson, because the police
11:14
Speaker 2: Minister Mark Mitchell is refusing to allow Labor a Labor's
11:18
Speaker 2: Ginny Anderson to meet an Auckland police inspector. Sounds pretty
11:22
Speaker 2: petty to me. It comes two years after Mitchell himself,
11:25
Speaker 2: who was then National's police spokesperson in opposition you'll remember,
11:29
Speaker 2: was blocked from meeting with police leaders by the then
11:31
Speaker 2: police Minister Portor Williams, a decision he said was petulant
11:36
Speaker 2: and vindictive. Ginny Anderson's with us, good.
11:38
Speaker 7: Morning, Good morning Ryan, how are you.
11:41
Speaker 2: I'm good, thank you. Now I just want to read
11:44
Speaker 2: you what he has said. His office has told us.
11:47
Speaker 2: He says, basically, I would support such a request if
11:52
Speaker 2: you were going to meet with the commissioner. I cannot
11:54
Speaker 2: support a generic request to visit a police station with
11:58
Speaker 2: no context, with a week's.
11:59
Speaker 7: No Well, I think he's walking that back quite quickly
12:07
Speaker 7: because he's realized that he has made a mistake. It's
12:10
Speaker 7: a well established practice that you go to the minister's office.
12:14
Speaker 7: Borrows myself and Chris Hopkins never made any attempts to
12:18
Speaker 7: stop him from making visits when he was the opposition spokesperson,
12:22
Speaker 7: and all the information that's required as the date and
12:25
Speaker 7: the place until you intend to meet with So I
12:28
Speaker 7: think he's realized that he's reacted in the wrong way.
12:32
Speaker 2: So were you just going to bowl up or had
12:34
Speaker 2: you been contact with someone there to meet with them?
12:38
Speaker 7: We'd sort of to the MP on the ground often
12:41
Speaker 7: makes inquiries. We wouldn't attend unless the minister had approved.
12:45
Speaker 2: But was the meeting did you speak to did you
12:48
Speaker 2: arrange a meeting with an inspector there and then go
12:51
Speaker 2: get permission from the minister or did you do the
12:53
Speaker 2: minister first? And actually you haven't got a specific meeting
12:56
Speaker 2: in mind.
12:58
Speaker 7: I think Shannon Helbert had done some liminary work, but
13:01
Speaker 7: we wouldn't do that until the minister had approved the meeting.
13:05
Speaker 2: Right, Because it sounds like he says I cannot support
13:07
Speaker 2: a generic request to visit a police station with no
13:10
Speaker 2: context or the week to notice. It sounds like he
13:12
Speaker 2: was worried that if he gave you permission, you were
13:14
Speaker 2: just going to bowl up there and just sort of
13:16
Speaker 2: harass people.
13:17
Speaker 7: No, no, that's not the practice. It's quite an established
13:19
Speaker 7: practice that you only speak with someone who's inspector level
13:22
Speaker 7: or higher, and it's a meeting, usually in the station,
13:26
Speaker 7: and it would be half an hour an hour. He'd
13:28
Speaker 7: done it many many times himself. He should know that
13:31
Speaker 7: it's a pretty standard practice. And the overall concern is
13:35
Speaker 7: we would not want to politicize the police. So it's
13:37
Speaker 7: fighting by general rules to make sure the police are
13:40
Speaker 7: protected from visits and we not dragged into the sort
13:42
Speaker 7: of political you know.
13:44
Speaker 2: Yeah, fair enough. Who was the inspector, Janine, What did
13:48
Speaker 2: you want to talk to them about?
13:50
Speaker 7: Oh, well, we were quite interested in an Auckland retail crime.
13:53
Speaker 7: That has been an ongoing issue for both governments. So
13:55
Speaker 7: it's important that we understand the recent events that have
13:58
Speaker 7: been happening, how they are upon the community, and also
14:02
Speaker 7: what Mesure's police are putting into place to reassure the
14:05
Speaker 7: community that things are being responded too quickly.
14:08
Speaker 2: Ginny, thank you very much for coming on the show.
14:10
Speaker 2: Ginny Anderson, Labour's police spokesperson, responding there to Mark Mitchell's
14:14
Speaker 2: refusal to allower into the police station in Albany. Twenty

15:14

Speaker 2: to know about it to the chief on Boodsman.
18:42
Speaker 10: Yeah, Peter Bosches is the way Kashmir High School's board
18:45
Speaker 10: communicated with a family after declining an out of zone
18:48
Speaker 10: enrollment was unreasonable. He says, it didn't give explain its decision,
18:52
Speaker 10: rather all outline the factors it had considered. Bosches recommended
18:56
Speaker 10: an apology and steps to make sure its members know
18:58
Speaker 10: they need to provide proper explanations. He says the board
19:02
Speaker 10: has refused to implement those recommendations. Though the chairperson of
19:06
Speaker 10: the board, James O'Donnell O'Connell rather says the board treated
19:09
Speaker 10: the situation like any other enrollment. Its correspondence was clear, all.
19:13
Speaker 2: Right and how's your wear it today, Claire.
19:16
Speaker 10: Rain developing this morning northeasterly is turning fresh southerly. The
19:19
Speaker 10: high is eleven with six overnights.
19:21
Speaker 2: Brilliant. Thank you Max Tolers and Wellington for us. This
19:24
Speaker 2: morning a fire crew racing to a fire has been
19:27
Speaker 2: hindered by a council installation. This is not the raised crossings?
19:33
Speaker 2: What is this so a good story? In the post today?
19:36
Speaker 11: Emails from fire and an emergency to the City Council
19:38
Speaker 11: have been revealed, showing well a range of complaints and
19:41
Speaker 11: warnings about new cycle ways features around the city. One example,
19:46
Speaker 11: on Kent and Cambridge Terraces, the council put in a
19:49
Speaker 11: pretty looking set of planter boxes where there was a
19:53
Speaker 11: sort of opportunity to u turn. Of course, there was
19:56
Speaker 11: a fire crews left the station. They couldn't make their
19:58
Speaker 11: usual turn up the road because these things suddenly appeared.
20:01
Speaker 11: They had to go all the way up to the
20:02
Speaker 11: Basin Reserve turn around. Those planter boxes were later removed
20:07
Speaker 11: fends also complaining about new newtown cycle ways. We've been
20:11
Speaker 11: reporting on those raised crossings on Thornton Key. The council
20:14
Speaker 11: meeting today to discuss those Fens did admit it could
20:17
Speaker 11: have been a little more proactive in the past about
20:20
Speaker 11: sounding warnings about these works, which might be why we're
20:23
Speaker 11: hearing a little more about them now.
20:25
Speaker 2: Goodness mate, is that their responsibility? We have weather today max.
20:29
Speaker 11: Occasional rain, strong northeries twelve.
20:31
Speaker 2: Thank you very much neighbors and Auckland this morning, good morning,
20:34
Speaker 2: good morning. Now what time can does you sell booze?
20:37
Speaker 2: To tell and Auckland is at ten pm? You can?
20:41
Speaker 12: Well, yes, well I always are. Usually when I'm at
20:43
Speaker 12: the supermarket, I'm the early like at about six or
20:46
Speaker 12: seven am and I'll just pop on you a bottle
20:48
Speaker 12: of wine.
20:49
Speaker 2: Then at that top it.
20:51
Speaker 12: Just put it on my way trolley. So I'm never
20:52
Speaker 12: there at night. But I think it is you know
20:54
Speaker 12: you can go when ten pm. So now what's happening
20:57
Speaker 12: is that the Auckland supermarkets and bars will likely soon
21:00
Speaker 12: have to stop selling alcohol earlier the city local Alcohol
21:04
Speaker 12: policy now that's just been approved. This is by the
21:06
Speaker 12: Alcohol Regulatory and Licensing authority. So Mayor Wayne Brown and
21:10
Speaker 12: the council is what they have to do now is
21:12
Speaker 12: that they have to choose a date for this policy
21:14
Speaker 12: to come into force. So it means that the bottle shops,
21:17
Speaker 12: supermarkets they're going to have to stop selling it at
21:20
Speaker 12: nine pms, Are you quite right? Nine pm? And bars
21:23
Speaker 12: and restaurants they won't be able to sell This is
21:25
Speaker 12: what I like any later that four am. Who's out
21:28
Speaker 12: drinking after four?
21:29
Speaker 2: I thought it was, you know, like nine pm. It
21:32
Speaker 2: just means you have to stock up with more.
21:33
Speaker 12: Well, that's right, You've got to be organized, be organized
21:36
Speaker 12: with you and with it. Today Neva showers tuning to
21:38

21:40

22:51
Speaker 2: Right now, we're going to Mitch McCann, who's our US correspondent, Mitch,
22:55
Speaker 2: So obviously there's a big whistle stop tour going on
22:58
Speaker 2: Karmala Harris and her new running mates and Waltz and
23:04
Speaker 2: the base loves this. What are those swing voters thinking
23:06
Speaker 2: about them.
23:08
Speaker 13: Well, they are managing to pull in more voters from
23:11
Speaker 13: across the country because their rallies are huge at the moment.
23:14
Speaker 13: Tim Wolts and Kamala Harris after Wisconsin this afternoon, Ryan,
23:18
Speaker 13: where are reported eight thousand people are expecting to hear
23:21
Speaker 13: from them. I'm told the queue to get a car
23:23
Speaker 13: park is three kilometers long, and then they're off to Michigan.
23:26
Speaker 13: It feels like Democrats have this renewed sense of momentum
23:30
Speaker 13: and energy. Last night you would have seen thousands packed
23:33
Speaker 13: out this auditorium in Philadelphia to hear from them, both
23:36
Speaker 13: for the first time as running mates. They both gain
23:39
Speaker 13: fiery speeches. People in the crowd described the atmosphere as electric.
23:43
Speaker 13: People compared it to when Barack Obama was running first
23:46
Speaker 13: in two thousand and eight. Now, let's talk about how
23:48
Speaker 13: this has gone down with the Republicans and Donald Trump.
23:52
Speaker 4: Now.
23:52
Speaker 13: It was on Fox News this morning and he said
23:55
Speaker 13: he was shocked that Kamala Harris chose Waltz, but that
23:58
Speaker 13: he was thrilled, and he said that Harris didn't choose
24:00
Speaker 13: the Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro because of his Jewish faith
24:05
Speaker 13: and Republicans are testing out a number of new attacks
24:08
Speaker 13: against the peer, but nothing's really landed yet. They're calling
24:11
Speaker 13: Tim Walls a far left lunatic or a left wing
24:14
Speaker 13: radical Ryan.
24:15
Speaker 2: Yeah, take your pick. Thank you for that, Mitch mccanna,
24:18
Speaker 2: US correspondent. Things are getting very interesting there. And the
24:21
Speaker 2: Jewish thing, Yeah, he's basically saying because Carmena Harris is
24:25
Speaker 2: so far left she didn't want to anger the pro
24:28
Speaker 2: Palestine groups by picking a Jewish guy to be her
24:32
Speaker 2: running mate. Go figure ten minutes away from six Rich
24:36
Speaker 2: back home.
24:37
Speaker 4: Now.
24:37
Speaker 2: Unemployments sitting at four point six percent for the June quarter.
24:40
Speaker 2: That's a three year high, and it's an increase from
24:43
Speaker 2: four point three percent from quarter one. It means basically,
24:46
Speaker 2: thirty three thousand people who had jobs this time last
24:49
Speaker 2: year are now out of work. But what a business
24:52
Speaker 2: is on the ground seeing right now? Because remember that's
24:54
Speaker 2: that's old data by now, isn't it. The Employer of
24:57
Speaker 2: Manufacturers Association. Alan McDonald's with me, Alan, Good morning, Cold
25:02
Speaker 2: I Eran, what are you seeing? How much worse are
25:05
Speaker 2: job cuts going to get? In your view?
25:07
Speaker 4: Yeah, unfortunately, I think it's going to continue. We've been
25:11
Speaker 4: seeing a steady increase in the numbers of businesses calling
25:16
Speaker 4: out advice line, our helpline for our members to talk
25:19
Speaker 4: about restructuring and redundancy. And I really had expected it
25:23
Speaker 4: to start heading the other way, but we just hit
25:26
Speaker 4: a record high in July of one hundred and sixty
25:28
Speaker 4: three calls in a month.
25:29
Speaker 2: What are they asking you these businesses?
25:32
Speaker 4: It's basically how to go about the right way to
25:37
Speaker 4: make people redundant or downsize their businesses because the business
25:42
Speaker 4: simply isn't there and they haven't got the work for
25:44
Speaker 4: those people.
25:45
Speaker 2: What sort of businesses are calling you? We're looking at
25:48
Speaker 2: a whole bunch of methadecks and taranaki. We're looking at
25:52
Speaker 2: the pulp mills. Are recycling paper mill in Auckland in
25:56
Speaker 2: the news in the last couple of days because of
25:58
Speaker 2: energy costs, they're looking at getting rid of it, folks.
26:00
Speaker 2: What are you seeing? What types of businesses?
26:03
Speaker 4: It's across the board. It's most of our members are
26:06
Speaker 4: what you'd call small to medium businesses, so smaller than
26:09
Speaker 4: probably one hundred or fewer than one hundred employees, and
26:14
Speaker 4: all parts of the economy really manufacturing struggling quite badly
26:18
Speaker 4: at the moment, but it's all sectors of the economy.
26:22
Speaker 2: Once Adrien or decides to start lowering rates, how much
26:27
Speaker 2: longer will it take for you guys, for your members
26:30
Speaker 2: to feel it.
26:32
Speaker 4: Well, if the Reserve Bank does lower rates, it's likely
26:35
Speaker 4: can only be zero point two five percent. I think
26:38
Speaker 4: it's more about the signal than anything else. There are
26:40
Speaker 4: a few green shuits out there, and I think if
26:43
Speaker 4: the Reserve Bank did lower rates, that would be a
26:47
Speaker 4: signal that says, look, things are going to get better
26:49
Speaker 4: and try and hang on. But it takes a while
26:51
Speaker 4: for those of those signals to flow through into reality.
26:55
Speaker 4: I suppose twelve to eighteen months.
26:56
Speaker 2: Usually, Allen, thank you very much for your time. Allan
26:59

Speaker 2: His name's Tom Craig and he was arrested for purchasing cocaine. Yeah,
27:31
Speaker 2: he's finished competing too. In his defense, you know, all
27:34
Speaker 2: the games were done and he was out partying. Obviously

27:41
Speaker 2: many an athlete arrested in France for with cocaine, buying
27:45
Speaker 2: cocaine whatever. He just got a fine, So they reckon.

28:00
Speaker 5: What are you talking this one up? Mate? I actually
28:02
Speaker 5: saw the cycling race that was a disaster, and I
28:05

28:07
Speaker 5: thought they might do a little bit better. And she's alone.
28:10
Speaker 5: Las mccnty has got a long way to go. Her
28:12
Speaker 5: top numbers are won nine something, so they're at the
28:15
Speaker 5: sevens at the moment, so they've got a long way
28:16
Speaker 5: to go in terms of you know, how this thing unfolded.
28:18
Speaker 2: We do have three in the game though, don't we here?
28:20
Speaker 5: We do indeed, so so that's good. Hey, Ellen, G liquid.
