Nicola Willis on Government's first 100 days

From Morning Report, 7:53 am on 5 March 2024

It's the last week of the government's first hundred days in office, and they're racing to tick off their 49-point agenda.

In a series of transport announcements this week the Transport Minister Simeon Brown has outlined a plan to build 15 new highways and create a fund to fix potholes.

So more money for roads but at the same time there may well be less money for free lunch programmes in schools with cuts of up to 50 percent foreshadowed.

National's deputy leader Nicola Willis spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.
