Rachel has a chat with Marc Daalder about why ministries are firing employees and rehiring them as consultants, and what this means for the public sector at the moment. They also chat about the current status of oil and gas in Aotearoa, and what's going on with Transpower.
This week is Hospice Awareness Week in Aotearoa, a campaign aimed at opening the conversation around Hospice care and services.

Rachel speaks to the leader of the opposition about the proposed repeal of Oranga Tamariki Act 77a, ministries hiring consultants after public sector cuts and the Labour Party's position on Aotearoa potentially joining Pillar Two of AUKUS.
Last Thursday, parliament agreed on a motion to establish a cross-party inquiry on how Aotearoa can better adapt to more frequent and severe weather events, continuing from an inquiry launched by former Green Party co-Leader James Shaw under the previous labour government.
For their weekly chat, Oto spoke to Green Party MP Ricardo Menendez March to discuss the party’s thoughts on the launch of the inquiry.
They also had a chat about the Roads of Regional Significance project, as well as the recent funding boost to the New Zealand Defence Force.
Neurodivergent students make up 15 to 20 percent of the education systems population, but with many of these students showing signs of an “Invisible disability” such as ADHD, autism and dyslexia, they are left receiving little to no help by the school and government.
Following the release of the “The Illusion of Inclusion” report by the Education Hub, I speak to Senior Lecturer of Critical Studies in Education, at the University of Auckland, Dr Jude MacArthur, about the funding disparity for neurodivergent students which places them at a considerable disadvantage.
