Last week, we missed our chat with Andrew Little as he was at Waitangi, so this week, Lillian speaks to the Minister about Waitangi! They touch on Andrew's speech given fully in te reo Māori, and whether the government managed to address some of the key issues raised by Māori prior to Waitangi Day. Lillian also gets the MInister to explain his position on constitutional transformation and what he thinks the role of the Waitangi Tribunal is following comments by the opposition to eventually disestablish it.

It’s been a massive week for Minister Andrew Little. So much so, that this chat only scratches the surface of some of the announcements he’s been involved in.

This week, the government moved under urgency to pass a piece of legislation banning foreign donations to political parties in New Zealand. Plus, a draft copy of the bill allowing for the legalisation of cannabis has been released. That’s the bill you and I will be voting on at the polling booth in September next year. 

Stewart Sowman-Lund talks to Minister Little about the two pieces of legislation.
