This week, News and Editorial Director Jess asked Brooke about the ACT party’s opposition to introducing new hate speech laws, which the government is set to propose soon.
They also discussed the End of Life Choice Act, as this week marks one year since it became law.
On Wednesday morning it was announced that the government would be giving $20,000,000 to developing nations to help address loss and damage caused by climate change.
The funding comes as part of the government’s commitment to deal with the impacts of climate change not covered by funding for adaptation measures.
This makes New Zealand one of only a few nations to make a loss and damage payment, which have also been described as reparations for the economic damage caused to developing nations by global warming.
Emilia spoke to Climate Change Minister James Shaw & Oxfam's Communications and Advocacy Director Jo Spratt.
