Q+A - Sunday July 5
1. Ahead of a Greek referendum on whether to accept a new austerity plan, we ask Finance Minister Bill English whether we should be concerned about the European situation – or whether the real risk is elsewhere. And what does he make of a top economist’s warning that NZ could be risk of a recession?
2. Politician Editor Corin Dann interviews UNDP Administrator Helen Clark as she wraps up her visit to New Zealand. Hear her views on people smuggling, refugee quotas and why the centre left is struggling to resonate with voters.
3. And Roihana Nuri reports on the reform of the Te Ture Whenua Act. The Government wants to cut red tape and simplify the law governing how Maori freehold land is managed. It believes the development of this land could add billions of dollars to the economy. So why are some Maori landowners suspicious?
Simon Dallow is joined by our panel: Dr Raymond Miller, Dr Deborah Russell and Bernard Hickey.
