This week on the Monday Wire... 

For our weekly catchup with the ACT Party’s Simon Court, News Director Castor asked about the ACT Party’s stance on conflict between National and NZ First within the coalition government. I also asked about the government’s proposed changes to treaty principles and how they influence policy. 

They also spoke to Postdoctoral fellow at the University of Otago, Christchurch, Jai Whelan, about Nitrous Oxide use and its harms amidst plans for a government crackdown. 

Producer Thomas talked to E tū union director Mat Danaher about Tiwai Point workers taking industrial action this week.

He also spoke to Brake New Zealand Director Caroline Perry about road safety week and how the campaign is encouraging safe driving.

This week E tū union members at Rio Tinto’s Aluminium Smelter at Tiwai Point in Southland are taking industrial action, after over two and a half years of bargaining has led to no collective agreement.

Workers will take action for four days in an attempt to force Rio Tinto to make compromises and reach a fair agreement. They are asking for recognition of their working conditions and their contribution they make for the company. With Rio Tinto securing the long-term future of the smelter until 2044 the agreement would have a large long lasting impact.

To discuss the industrial action and why bargaining has reached this point producer Thomas talked to E tū Union Director Mat Danaher.
