Cabinet has issued a circular laying out expectations that public services should be delivered based on “the needs of all New Zealanders”, fulfilling a coalition agreement secured by Act and New Zealand First that “need” should be prioritised over “race”.
Senior Political Correspondent Barry Soper tells Heather du Plessis-Allan this should have been the case all along, but unfortunately, hasn’t been.
Meanwhile, teachers are allegedly eating free school lunches and leaving students without.
And, the Waitangi Tribunal has accused the Government of breaching the Treaty.
