  • Jo Malcolm-Black: Graeme Dingle Foundation CEO on thousands of students not enrolled in school for more than a year

    06/07/2025 Duración: 05min

    A youth charity believes the Government's taking courageous steps, to tackle chronic school absence. Ministry of Education data shows more than one thousand students weren't enrolled in school for more than a year in 2024 - a 576 percent increase on a decade ago. Graeme Dingle Foundation CEO Jo Malcolm-Black told Andrew Dickens it's good to see the Government is wanting to tackle the problem. She says early intervention and consistent support reduces the risk of disengagement. Malcolm-Black hopes schools, social services and community organisations will support the Government's approach.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

  • Andrew Dickens: You can't escape tax

    06/07/2025 Duración: 02min

    Infrastructure Minister Chris Bishop is into the US for a range of meetings across housing, planning, development and transport.  Notably - he's visiting New York to speak to city officials about their introduction of "CONGESTION PRICING" and how its faring.  Over there - the results of charging people to use the roads in peak times have looked promising so far, and Bishop says he wants "to learn some lessons he could take back here"  it appears congestion charges are inevitable.  And not just for the basket case that is Auckland.  Tauranga and Wellington are in the firing line. And the point about them is not just to ease the congestion on our roads but it would be a white lie to assert that it's not a money maker.  So when, not if, Chris Bishop comes back and pulls the pin on congestion charges in this country the question is who gets the money?  I think it's a no-brainer that any money raised in a district should be reinvested in that district. That is Wayne Brown's posit

  • Elliott Smith: Newstalk ZB Rugby Editor ahead of the All Blacks v France series

    03/07/2025 Duración: 03min

    There are new faces across the board for the first All Blacks test of the season.  Four uncapped All Blacks will be unleashed in Dunedin, with number 8 Christian Lio-Willie and lock Fabian Holland starting, while prop Ollie Norris and flanker Du'Plessis Kirifi will storm off the bench.  On the French side of things, with five debutants featuring in the run-on side and three in the reserves.  Newstalk ZB’s Voice of Rugby Elliott Smith told Ryan Bridge this feels like more of a team Scott Robertson wants to pick and unleash on the world, as opposed to trying specifically to win.  He says it feels a sea change in the All Blacks selection philosophy.   LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

  • Brad Jacobs: Franchise NZ Chairman and Coffee Club Director on the proposed trespass rules

    03/07/2025 Duración: 03min

    Franchises could soon have the ability to trespass someone across multiple sites.  Justice Minister Paul Goldsmith is beefing up the current laws, calling them no longer fit for purpose.  He's also proposing doubling the maximum fines for trespassing on businesses, and increasing the maximum period to three years.  Franchise New Zealand Chairman and Coffee Club Director Brad Jacobs told Ryan Bridge there's currently no way to block someone across several sites.  He says there's a lot of repetition with multiple franchises doing the same work to get the same outcome.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

  • Felicity Foy: Far North District Councillor on changes to insulation standards

    03/07/2025 Duración: 03min

    Changes to rigid insulation standards are predicted to cut new-build costs by an average of $15 thousand. They'll give more flex to requirements in the building code by the end of the year, in a bid to cut down rising construction costs.  The Government's also looking to make the Far North a separate 'climate zone', stating the region’s warmer climate allows for a more tailored approach. Far North District Councillor Felicity Foy told Ryan Bridge current rules add a significant chunk to building costs.  She says the difference in cost between double glazing and low-E glass is significant.  LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

  • Ryan Bridge: National's week of law and order announcements

    03/07/2025 Duración: 02min

    The award for most press releases and announcements on a single issue must got to National this week. Law and Order was front and centre - announcements about everything from first responders to coward punches. It was an assault of announcements.  Now, announcements don't make streets safer. Announcements don't fix problems on their own.  This was a targeted campaign to reinforce the idea their tough on crime. That they're on the side of the victim.  Why are they doing this? Because it's one of the now minority of issues on which they outpoll Labour - from the last Ipsos survey.  So, they've been going health for leather on law and order. Meanwhile, Labour's overtaken the right for the party most trusted to fix the economy.  I know for a lot of you listening, this is laughable. They got us into this mess, etc, etc.  And I agree with you - I think it's like a protest vote against the incumbent when cost of living is high. Would you actually go and vote for that person tomorrow? Or

  • Tamah Alley: Central Otago Mayor on the long-term agreements between regions and central government

    02/07/2025 Duración: 03min

    The Government's one step closer to reaching long-term agreements on the future of some of our fastest-growing areas.  It's agreed to negotiate with councils in Auckland, Western Bay of Plenty, and Central Otago, on 10-year deals to boost economic growth, housing and infrastructure.  Auckland Mayor Wayne Brown says "small decisions" should be kept with councils.  Central Otago Mayor Tamah Alley told Ryan Bridge the agreement could cover everything and anything.  She says they’ve put together a list of priorities for the region, and it will be up to them to negotiate with the government and see where their priorities align.   LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

  • Ruth Richardson: Former Finance Minister on the need for a publicly funded election policy-costing unit

    02/07/2025 Duración: 03min

    A former Finance Minister believes there's a need for a publicly funded body to find out what election promises would cost.  Act and New Zealand First have shot down current Finance Minister Nicola Willis' proposal, which would have allowed resources from the public sector to cost policies of political parties up to 10 months before an election.  Ruth Richardson was the Finance Minister in the 1990s and told Ryan Bridge Willis is on the right track, but the proposal falls short of what's required.  She says we want a publicly resourced body, independent of the executive to ensure more informed public and parliamentary debate.  Richardson says the UK’s Office for Budget Responsibility is a gold standard example of what we should be creating.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

  • Jane Searle: Child Matters CEO on the $41 million investment into Oranga Tamariki staff training

    02/07/2025 Duración: 02min

    The Minister for Children's $41 million workforce investment is expected to train and retain youth care staff.  Karen Chhour says her new funding follows a 2023 Oranga Tamariki review, which found many workers weren't equipped to deal with the high needs of some kids in care.  The boost will qualify more staff, recruit capable workers to vacant positions, and establish clinical roles in each residence.  Child Matters CEO Jane Searle told Ryan Bridge dealing with high-risk kids takes a level of expertise.  She says they were having staff who didn't have that level of training and struggled, causing high turnover.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    02/07/2025 Duración: 02min

    People are swarming outside a New York courthouse following Sean “Diddy” Combs' conviction. The 55-year-old hip hop mogul's been found guilty of transportation to engage in prostitution. But he's been acquitted of his more serious charges, of racketeering conspiracy and two counts of sex trafficking. US Correspondent Mitch McCann is outside the courthouse and told Ryan Bridge social media influencers are everywhere, streaming live from outside.

  • Ryan Bridge: There should be instant fines for loss of data

    02/07/2025 Duración: 02min

    Yesterday was a bad day for some of my pet peeves.  I couldn't find a carpark in town, I had to visit a supermarket, and Qantas suffered a data hack.  Nothing drives me more crazy than a business —big or small, although in this case very big— asking too many personal questions and getting too many personal details about their customers.  Unnecessarily so.  Now. There's a good argument for why Qantas needs your details - if you're flying then they require your passport number, your date of birth, your addresses in case things go wrong, etc.  I get that. But if they are collecting such sensitive information —our secrets and the secret to our identity— then can they not keep it safe?  No, they can't.  Yesterday, 6 million Qantas customers had names, email addresses, phone numbers, birthdates, and frequent flyer numbers stolen. They reckon no credit card data was taken.  But honestly, who cares? The information that was taken is bad enough.  And what will they do? Apol

  • Laura Marshall: Library and Information Association of New Zealand Executive Director on AI books in libraries

    01/07/2025 Duración: 03min

    Books written by artificial intelligence have been finding their way onto local library shelves, and they could become more common in the future.  Newstalk ZB can reveal most libraries avoid buying AI-written books, but don't ban them, and some have added them to their collections by accident.  Laura Marshall, Library and Information Association of New Zealand Executive Director, told Ryan Bridge there’s not that many AI books currently available in New Zealand.  She doubts they’re going to fill an entire library with them, and she doubts in five years there will be many AI books that are good enough to pass the test to get into the library.  However, most libraries are open to stocking AI books in the future if there’s customer demand.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

  • Hayden Ricketts: Retired Lieutenant Colonel on the NZ Defence Force's cost cuts

    01/07/2025 Duración: 04min

    The Defence Force is keeping details of its cost cuts secret.  But Newstalk ZB can reveal NZDF admitted, in internal communications, that it would have to scale back or cut programmes that impact how people view the force, and New Zealand's reputation.  The defence force also noted the sinking of the Manawanui added to its financial struggles.  Retired Lieutenant Colonel Hayden Ricketts told Ryan Bridge that since there’s going to be a $12 billion investment over the next four years, they’re unable to cut what is normally one of the first things to go: personnel.  He says that NZDF is going to need civilian workers to do the introduction of service, to do the staff work, to do the business cases and the papers for cabinet that comes with that money.   LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We’ve got fresh warnings this morning of reputational damage to our defence force if planned cost-cutting goes ahead, Hayden Ricketts retired Lieutenant Colonel from Mission Homefront, tells Ryan Bridge where the issue lies.  Plus UK/Europe Correspondent Gavin Grey has the latest on a new twist in the story of Britain’s most prolific child killer in modern history.

  • Jason Stockill: Woolworths Retail and Franchise Director on new retail crime changes

    01/07/2025 Duración: 03min

    Woolworths says it takes a community effort to curb retail crime.  Justice Minister Paul Goldsmith has unveiled the plan for Police to issue infringement fines for people stealing - similar to speeding tickets.  It is based on suggestions from the Retail Crime Ministerial Advisory Group.  Woolworths Retail and Franchise Director Jason Stockill told Ryan Bridge the announcement is an example of collaboration across the sector.  He's hoping for more initiatives which will help deter shoplifting.  LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

  • Ryan Bridge: The coalition is stealing Labour's thunder

    01/07/2025 Duración: 02min

    You know immediately when something makes good political sense.  You can usually tell, not by listening to the Minister announce it, but by listening to the Opposition oppose it.  Crime is topic du jour as the Government's rolling maul of thundercloud announcements continue.  It's one of the party's strongest, biggest levers to pull - it's one of the few election issues on which the Nats outpoll Labour. So it's no wonder they've pulled out all the stops this after a few weeks of shaky polling and being on the defence.  The problem for Labour with crime is simple: nobody trusts them.  The facts are as follows: crime went nuts. Labour's policy was reduce the prison population.  Which is what makes this such a hard week for Labour, not the Greens and TPM who sing a different song on law and order, but for Hipkins.  How do you credibly stand up and argue against longer sentences for thugs who bash first responders? How do you oppose getting tough on coward punches? How do y
