Every 4 minutes: Family violence in New Zealand: December 12, 2018

Every four minutes, a call is made to the police or a notification is sent to child services, related to a case of family violence. It is also the name given to a newly released report. It is the third of a series of researches looking into the justice system, and written by Doctor Ian Lambie, the Chief Science Advisor to the Justice sector. 

About 150,000 calls for care or protection notices are made each year,  80 percent of child and young offenders have experienced family violence, while 87 percent of young offenders aged 14 to 16 years old had previous care and protection concerns.

A third of New Zealand women experience physical or sexual partner violence, rising to 55 per cent when psychological/emotional abuse is included.

And at least one in 10 New Zealand men have experienced childhood sexual abuse.

While pointing out the statistics, Dr Lambie insists his report reveals family violence is not so much an individual issue within a couple or a home, but more so a community.

Low Voter Turnout with Lara Greaves: October 10th, 2019

The local elections are in full swing this year, with the predicted voter turnout for this Saturday's local elections heading for an all-time record low. It seems turnout has been slipping every three years, with current estimates for 2019s local elections unlikely to be above 40 per cent. So who’s to blame for this crisis of voter decline? Is it on the voters or do we have an out of date system? Louis spoke with Dr. Lara Greaves, A lecturer in politics & public policy at the University of Auckland, about the current climate surrounding these local elections, as well as solutions for voter certainty in the future.

Funding Boost for New Zealand Schools: Monday the 2nd of December, 2019

It was announced over the weekend that a new government investment of four hundred million dollars into schools for property upgrades & maintenance & this would go into effect as of tomorrow.

The announcement was made by the Prime Minister Jacinda Adern during the closing moments of her speech at the Labour Party’s annual conference in Wanganui on Sunday. 

Two thousand & fifty schools will be eligible to receive a minimum of $50,000 with a maximum of $400,000, depending on roll size. 

That’s six hundred & ninety three dollars per student! The one-off cash injection is the biggest investment in school maintenance in at least 25 years. To talk further about this investment is Education Minister Chris Hipkins who spoke to me this morning about the governments school infrastructure plan in full.

Potentially Introducing a Sugary Drink Tax to New Zealand w/ Dr Rob Beaglehole:Feb, 11 2020

The United Kingdom in 2018 introduced the Soft Drinks Industry Levy colloquially known as ‘the sugar tax’ which places a base rate of tax onto sugary drinks which increases incrementally for each 8  grams per litre of sugar extra found in the drink.

The consumption of sugary drinks in the United Kingdom has decreased by 35% since 2015 which many attribute to the levy.

The New Zealand Dental Association has been closely observing the effects of the levy which they believe is strong evidence for New Zealand to introduce similar legislation - New Zealand suffering from the third highest obesity rate and very high cavity rates.

In this piece I spoke with Dr Rob Beaglehole NZDA spokesperson who is a clinical dentist and the Principal Dental Officer for a regional health board in New Zealand on the UK statistics and why we should introduce similar legislation to the country. 

I started off by asking - 'Why New Zealand should have a Sugary Drink Tax'

Cutting transport emissions with electric vehicles: June 10, 2021

The Climate Change Commission has recommended sweeping changes to cut down emissions from transport, which totalled about 47 per cent of New Zealand's carbon emissions.

It wants petrol and diesel car imports to be fully banned no later than 2035, and to have ships electrified after 2025 and short-haul routes operated by electric planes by 2030.

The roadmap also targeted to have more cars run by a mix of petrol and biofuel.

The Motor Industry Association, which represents importers and distributors of new vehicles, said they 'cautiously welcome' the report.

Its chief executive David Crawford spoke to Justin Wong.

Birth injuries not yet covered by ACC w/ Jan Logie: September 17, 2021

This morning, Ilena spoke to Green Party MP Jan Logie about their open letter to the Minister for ACC, Carmel Sepuloni, asking for birth injuries to be covered by ACC. Currently, injuries such as vaginal tears are not covered by ACC. Neither are injuries to the baby such as cerebral palsy through lack of oxygen. 

On a whole, women receive far less compensation from ACC annually than men - almost a billion dollars less per year. For wāhine Māori, the difference in compensation is even wider, as Māori women tend to have more injuries than Pākehā and are less likely to be referred for an ACC claim by a healthcare professional. 

Jan talked about the legal challenges of having birth injuries covered by ACC and the government’s response.
