Parliment Will Sit Under Urgency This Week As Govt Push Through First Changes - Early Edition with Ryan Bridge

Parliament will sit under urgency this week - with the new government pushing through the first changes in its 100 day plan.

Part of this is repealing Fair Pay Agreement legislation.

Former National ministerial adviser Brigitte Morten told Tim Dower every opposition complains about the use of urgency - then use it themselves when in government.

She says the last Labour government used it considerably more - and while it'd argue Covid meant it had to respond with emergency legislation, they were pushing a lot more through under urgency even in August.
