The Panel with Julia Hartley Moore and Guy Williams (Part 1)

The enquiry into the Government's appointment of the deputy police commissioner has found it was adequate and fit for purpose. We ask Law Professor Andrew Geddis if the enquiry was necessary. Meanwhile, the regional economic development minister Shane Jones has had to correct answers given to the National Party after failign to disclose 61 meetings he has had this year. Some of the people he met with have an interest in the Provinical Growth Fund. Mr Jones says there was an error with his outlook diary. Andrew and the panelists discuss whether this will have consequences, as it did for former communications minister Clare Curran. Primary teachers have begun rolling strikes today, starting in Auckland and moving across the country this week. Opposition leader Simon Bridges says teachers are looking at the pay rates of other professions and wanting more but the Employment Relations Authority has called the pay demand unrealistic. Alwyn Poole from Villa Education Trust gives us his view of the situation. World Rugby has backed the TMO call that decided the All Blacks' controversial win over England at Twickenham over the weekend. Some in the English team have labelled the decision a "injustice". The panelists tell us what they thought of the game. Britain will need maybe 51,000 more nurses by 2021, a figure complicated by Brexit, reports the Independent today. We have trouble getting and retaining teachers, nurses, early childhood staff, police; there's high police churn. We ask the panelists why they think that is, is it wages? Or is it a decline in our wanting to do these jobs?
