Speaker 1 (00:04):
Good afternoon, I'm railing ramsay. This is your afternoon news
fixed for Tuesday, the twelfth of November. The Prime Minister
says he is proud of how today's Crown apology to
survivors of abuse and care was conducted. Chris Luxon addressed
Parliament and a public gallery of survivors, as well as
hundreds watching the live stream around the country. He's promised
(00:26):
funding to bolster the current redress system while a new
one is set up, and to strip public honors from
known abuses. Government agency leaders, including from Audanga, Tamariki, Police
and the Solicitor General, also apologized in the face of
heavy heckling. Luckson says there's a range of perspectives in
the survivor community. We're dealing with fifty years of abuse
(00:49):
and state care. Everyone has a different experience of that.
What I would say is that our government is taking
this responsibility incredibly seriously. Secretary for Education Andy Jackson told
survivors the harm experienced in care was unacceptable. As children
and young people, you were particularly vulnerable and should have
been protected and kept safe. Children's Minister Karen Shaw has
(01:10):
been vocal about her experiences in state care as a child.
She says it felt confusing and interesting today to have
a foot in two different worlds, one being a victim
of harm in the past and one being in a
space where I can make changes there. It was quite humbling.
In other news, the Prime Minister says he didn't get
into the nitty gritty on free trade with the US
(01:32):
while talking with Donald Trump this morning. Chris Larkson says
he's keen to pursue a trade agreement, but that wasn't
the focus today. It's really a relational call to make
sure that we have established relationship so that we can
move forward from here. And so was a very positive,
very warm, you know, a good connection. Economic relief still
elusive for retailers ahead of sales season. Statcen Z figures
(01:55):
show electronic card transactions increase slightly from September to October,
but year on year spendings fall in one point one percent.
In September, the annual figures fell five point six RETAILI
and said Chief executive Carolyn Young says that's concerning being
the hind where we were in twenty twenty three when
the market conditions were also poor, but just shows how
(02:17):
difficult the training environment is loneliness is rife among older
New Zealanders. A report from Age Concern Auckland has found
fifty nine percent recently felt lonely or socially isolated. Thirty
percent often feel that way. It recommends appointing a Minister
for Loneliness to help foster connections. Chief Executive Kevin Lamb says,
(02:39):
of actions not taken, more people will end up in hospital,
need assisted living, or suffer from mental health issues. These
things all cost and if we can prevent long as
in isolation, we can reduce the cost on the other side,
and it's much better th the prevention that is trying
to support people when it's too late to sport. And
