news fix for Thursday, the fourteenth of November. The Hikoi
against the Treaty Principal's Bill is moving through Waikato next
daiming for Rotorua. The protesters have been marching down Hamilton's
Victoria Street to its main town square Garden Place. The
(00:30):
Prime Minister has delivered his strongest criticism of the bill
on the day of its first reading. Under the coalition agreement,
National and New Zealand first agreed to support it to
the select committee stage. Parliament is bracing for the reading
and the speakers reportedly warned he'll clear the public gallery
if there is protest. Chris Luxin says National beliefs its
(00:52):
approach of dealing with treaty issues case by case, in
collaboration with the Crown and Maori is better. You do
not go gate with the single stroke of a pen
one hundred and eighty four years of debate and discussion
with a bill that I think is very simplistic. Meanwhile,
government workers are being reminded of their protest rights as
the hekoy travels the country. The Public Service Association says
(01:14):
they have the right to take part in political and
public life, but it says they must be politically neutral
at work and remove work lanyards, logos and uniforms at

of power. White House Press Secretary Carine Jean p Year

length of the meeting tells you that they had an
in depth conversation on an array of issues. Defense Force
members are doing the jobs of non uniform workers who
are striking for a pay rise. Defense Minister Judith Collins
has authorized uniformed personnel to cover areas deemed critical, like
(02:25):
the Defense Security Guard Force and the NZDF Airfield Firefighters.

strike action is obviously having an impact, but what it
does show, in fact, the work of these civili interessonnel
and our defense force is critical and they should be
recognized with a fair payoffer. One end Z is being
