The Law Association says changing the threshold for the right to a jury trial doesn't make sense. Currently a defendant can choose between a jury or a judge-alone trial in cases where the maximum penalty is two or more years in jail. The Government's seeking feedback on increasing this to three, five, or seven years, saying jury trials drive court delays. Law Association Vice-President Julie-Anne Kincade told Mike Hosking that right now in Auckland District Court you'll get a jury-trial

The Tertiary Education Minister says AUT has good rationale behind its policy to give Māori and Pasifika staff extra points in choosing staff to attend overseas conferences. AUT says there's a critical shortage of those academic staff in the sector, and the policy helps address that. The Government's directed the public service to allocate services on need, not race.

Mike's Minute: Confidence in our economy is growing

The Mike Hosking Breakfast ·

2024/09/18

The good news is confidence in our economy is improving. It has been a decent week: farmers confidence is up and markedly, our confidence is up a bit —still overall pessimistic, but up nevertheless— and last week we saw business confidence rise a bit. Then come the newest numbers, our current account. It’s a mess. We are a mess. In essence we buy more from the world than we sell it, and given we are in the business of selling stuff, that doesn’t make us a very good business. Glass half full, the

Justice is set to be served to nearly every member of the Comancheros motorcycle gang, but that won't be the end of New Zealand's drug trade. A three year police operation has resulted in 137 charges being laid. Canterbury University sociology professor Jarrod Gilbert says it's decimated the Comancheros, and sends a message that any high profile organised crime group has a large target on their back. But he says we can't expect this to significantly disrupt drug trade long term - as supply
