'We didn’t have all the answers' - Labour MP Adrian Rurawhe

From the collecton The House On Demand

Labour MP Adrian Rurawhe says a visit to Tonga's Legislative Assembly was thought provoking.

Rurawhe was a member of the New Zealand delegation which spent five days travelling through Tonga and Fiji.

The group met with MPs and discussed issues like constituency offices, women's representation, and engaging the youth.

He told Daniela Maoate-Cox there were some thought provoking questions and the New Zealand group didn't have all the answers.

This interview is part of a series on the Speaker-led delegation to Tonga and Fiji. The full coverage can be found here.
