Judith Collins: Defence Minister on the NZ Defence Force's deployment in South Korea - The Mike Hosking Breakfast

The Government says sending troops to South Korea is good for their training.  

New Zealand is sending 41 Defence Force personnel as part of the United Nations Command. 

Defence Minister Judith Collins says they are mostly younger, less experienced members. 

She told Mike Hosking that it's a good chance for those with a couple of years' service to work with other nations. 

Collins says we're one of several other countries involved, so it's good for them to understand how we work with other nations.
