From Morning Report, 6:42 am on 14 June 2016

The ACT party wants refugees coming to New Zealand to have to sign up to New Zealand values before they're allowed into the country. The Government has said it will increase New Zealand's refugee quota from 750 to 1000 places from 2018. The ACT leader David Seymour told our political editor Jane Patterson New Zealand should follow Australia's lead in requiring refugees to sign up to societal values.
