Today In Parliament: 24.06.09

Tom Frewen: Today In Parliament

  • Tom Frewen: Opposition leader, Phil Goff, ridicules the small number of jobs saved by the nine-day fortnight. The Prime Minister hits back by recalling high unemployment in the late nineteen eighties when Mister Goff was minister of labour. Social Welfare minister, Paula Bennett, responds to criticism of Christine Rankin by pointing the finger at former Families Commissioner, Rajen Prasad, now in the House as a Labour list MP. Lianne Dalziel tells a story about her husband to illustrate the impact of the government's cap on incentive training.
