On this week’s regular segment in collaboration with OurActionStation, we’re discussing digital exclusion in the public sector, and the shift to online forms of communication that is leaving some of our population behind.
Andrew Hubbard, Deputy Chief Executive of The Citizens Advice Bureau, spoke with Trishil Dahya about their petition, and their push to gain governmental support for those feeling excluded from reaching out for help using online means.
The 25-cent Fuel Tax Excise has been extended another 6 months, to January 2023. The Fuel Tax Excise had been set by the Labour Government as fuel prices steadily increased months ago.
The cut in petrol excise duty, the equivalent reduction in road user charges and the half price public transport fares were due to end next month before this extension.
Petrol prices increased 32% in the year to the June 2022 quarter, the largest annual increase since 1985.
Finance Minister Grant Robertson extended the measures, saying "We are doing this because we want Kiwis to have some certainty for the rest of the year in the face of volatile fuel prices and ongoing cost of living pressure," he said.
Inflation rates have also been released, rising to 7.3% and is now at a 32-year high.
Producer Trishil Dahya spoke to Economics Professor Tim Hazeldean from the University of Auckland, on the matter, and his proposals to mediate inflation.
New Zealand, Australia and many countries are experiencing a further Omicron wave driven by the latest BA.4/BA.5 subvariants. Our response to this threat is remarkably laissez-faire compared with past approaches, as society has pivoted more to “living with the virus”. But in both New Zealand and Australia, there’s a real risk current policy settings will be insufficient to prevent health services being overwhelmed – and more will need to be done in coming weeks.
Joe spoke to Professor Michael Baker from the Department of Public Health at the University of Otago, Wellington, on the matter.
Joe speaks to Dr Nic Rawlence from the Palaeogenetics Lab at the University of Otago about extinct marine reptiles which once roamed Aotearoa's waters.
A team of researchers is developing a uniquely Aotearoa New Zealand wellbeing diet, He Rourou Whai Painga, they hope will tackle diabetes, heart and other noncommunicable diseases.
Joe spoke to Endocrinologist Professor Jeremy Krebs, from the University of Otago in Wellington, on the matter.
