21h ago10:08

10:08

Should single rooms be the norm in hospitals? Multi-patient rooms are the status quo for New Zealand hospitals, with up to five people staying in each room. New research argues that this breaches safety and ethical concerns, saying that single patient rooms should be the most basic standard of care. Researcher and author Dr Cindy Towns told Kerre W…

Kerre Woodham: When did parents stop wanting more for their kids? 5:52

2d ago5:52

5:52

When did parents stop wanting more for their kids? The figures out today are absolutely appalling and paint a grim future for thousands of young New Zealanders. People aged 16-24 who are on the main benefit can expect to stay there for 20.4 years. I suppose we'll take the good news where we find it – that's down from 21.3 years. But good Lord, what…

Kerre Woodham: Would self-certification build a better quality of workman? 5:55

3d ago5:55

5:55

I suppose I should have, but I had no idea that it takes, on average, 569 days for a home to be built and consented right now. Nearly two years for a home to be built and consented! A decent building company could throw up a house in three months, couldn't they? But no, because of the consenting process, 569 days in this country for a home to be bu…

Pete Wolfkamp: Newstalk ZB's Resident Builder on the Government's potential building consent scheme 7:31

3d ago7:31

7:31

The devil will be in the details when it comes to the Government’s new building consents scheme. The proposal would allow competent tradespeople to self-certify consents on low risk builds, and businesses with a track record on delivering bigger projects would be able to access streamlined consenting. Pete Wolfkamp, ZB’s Resident Builder, told Kerr…

Kerre Woodham: Want only white nurses? You might be waiting a while 4:31

8d ago4:31

4:31

If you want to racially abuse hospital staff and demand white only nurses, fine. We will draw a curtain around your bed, and you’ll lie there and wait. You need pain relief, assistance to go to the loo, have your sheets changed, have your blood pressure monitored - make sure it's not getting dangerously high. You lie there and you wait. You wait fo…

Kerre Woodham: How is it that we need a Crown Observer? 8:53

10d ago8:53

8:53

The Government is set to appoint a Crown Observer to Wellington City Council within weeks. The writing was on the wall really, wasn't it? It was whether they were going to go the whole hog with the Commissioner, a’ la Tauranga, or settle for an Observer, and that is what they've gone with. Local Government Minister Simeon Brown made the announcemen…

11d ago7:05

7:05

Several thousands more offenders are likely to be captured under Three Strikes 2.0 following changes by Cabinet to toughen up the act. These changes, announced this morning, include halving the sentencing threshold for a first strike, and making it retrospective (controversial with lawmakers).

6:33

Who doesn't love hosting a good party? Who hasn't enjoyed the buzz that comes from having people from all over the world heading into town intent on having a good time?

12d ago9:32

9:32

Former Prime Minister Helen Clark says it's politically viable for New Zealand to host the America's Cup as we've done it before, and if we don't step up, someone else will. She says Kiwis love to see New Zealand doing well and winning – and says we know having the Cup at home comes with economic benefits. Auckland Mayor Wayne Brown says the hostin…

Kerre Woodham: What do we expect our politicians to do? 8:27

15d ago8:27

8:27

The Greens voted last night to swallow a dead rat. Even the vegans had to chew on a dead rat last night. Green Party delegates overwhelmingly decided to use the Waka Jumping law, which they hate, to eject Darleen Tana from Parliament if she decides not to quit first. Darleen Tana, the former Green MP, currently sits, useless as tits on a bull, as a…

Kerre Woodham: On the whole, I think ACC's still working 7:18

16d ago7:18

7:18

We're going to open the show today with a chat on ACC, given that it's managed to go from a $911 million surplus to a $7.2 billion deficit in the year to June. That’s got to hurt. ACC said, in it's just released annual report, that lower than expected rehabilitation performance contributed towards the deficit, and noted the cost of providing servic…

Kerre Woodham: Can you blame someone for speaking their own tongue in a bit of downtime? 5:29

17d ago5:29

5:29

I remember about 25 years ago there was an absolute hoo-ha at the Grey Lynn Countdown, because staff there were speaking to one another in their own tongue in the common staff room. And there was a complaint from somebody who spoke English —that was the language they spoke, and they didn't speak any other languages— and they took great offence to p…

17d ago10:35

10:35

Inflation is continuing to fall and interest rates are likely to follow suit. The inflation rate has dropped to 2.2 percent. It's the first time in more than three years it's returned to the Reserve Bank's 1-3% target range. The Herald's Liam Dann told Kerre Woodham the markets are now pricing in a 100% chance the Reserve Bank will cut the OCR at l…

John MacDonald: Is this the future of airport security? 5:19

18d ago5:19

5:19

What’s the Government’s obsession with speeding things up? Today, it’s the queues at airport security that it wants to go faster - with Transport Minister Simeon Brown looking at bringing-in private operators to run airport security instead of the Civil Aviation Authority. As far as I’m concerned, if you don’t get through security on time and miss …

John MacDonald: How’s that $20-a-week tax cut looking now? 5:32

22d ago5:32

5:32

How’s that miserly $20-a-week tax cut looking now that we know the country’s budget deficit is $1.8 billion worse than expected? You might be one of the few people who are actually better-off by more than 20 bucks a week, but you’re in the minority. And there’s no doubt that there is egg all over the Government’s face on this one. But I told you so…

John MacDonald: Call in the army for our civil defence future 5:24

23d ago5:24

5:24

How many reviews and reports do we need before we accept that we are nowhere near as good at emergency and disaster management as we think we are here in New Zealand? I reckon we’ll never admit it. But we should. In fact, we shouldn’t just admit that we’re not as good as we think - we should also be looking at some major structural change. Not just…

Kerre Woodham: Why don't we focus the headlines on the good news? 8:10

25d ago8:10

8:10

There is a common trope that if prisons worked, we wouldn't need them. And that if prison was a deterrent, people wouldn't commit crime. If prison was about rehabilitation then people would serve their term and then they would not reoffend. There's something incredibly depressing about prisons and the waste of human potential they represent – even …
