N.B.: TODAY'S WIRE CONTAINS INSTANCE OF POOR JOURNALISTIC PRACTICE.
The views of Miriam Clements were aired in truncated form without the listener being informed of the edit. The opposing views of Councillor Richard Hills were aired unedited. 95bFM does not consider this balanced journalism and wishes to apologise to Ms. Clements and Wire listeners for its error in judgement. 95bFM also wishes to make clear that any referendum on the topic concerned within said interviews would require 400,000 national votes - not votes contained within the North Shore region as potentially insinuated. - P.D.


Should the North Shore become its own country? Aucklander Miriam Clements wants a referendum on the subject. North Shore councillor Richard Hills and Miriam Clements give their thoughts to Stewart.

A research commissioned by the Ministry for Women shows that mothers suffer higher consequences than fathers when it comes to work opportunities and pay. The wage difference, which is already 5.7 percent between men and women without children, skyrockets to 12.5 percent between men and women who are parents.

Why is parenting still so gendered in New Zealand? And why being a mother makes you less entitled to a decent workload and pay?

Our producer Lisa Boudet spoke to Gill Greer, the Chief executive for the National Council of Women and spokesperson for Gender Equal New Zealand. She also talked to Dr Jackie Blue, the Equal Employment Commissioner from the New Zealand Human Right Commission.
