Since we have gone into lockdown, an epidemic response committee has been set up, meeting three times a week to discuss how the government's response has been going so far and here it could be better. Unlike other select committees, this one has been operating remotely via zoom and broadcasted via livestream as well as on parliamentary TV. It also has a different composition to most other committees, with this one with a majority of opposition MP’s, as well as speakers from a wide range of areas. This week James has talked to the leader of the ACT party, David Seymour, about how he has found the response committee so far. James starts off by asking this exact question. If you are wanting to know more about the epidemic response committee, every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday we have a segment covering that day's discussions, which are all uploaded to bCasts.
