Tom Frewen: Today In Parliament
17.11.09
Tom Frewen: Parliament resumes after a
fortnight's adjournment, welcomes David Clendon as Sue
Bradford's replacement for the Greens, congratulates the All
Whites on beating Bahrain, and gets into a shouting match
over the cost of the emissions trading scheme with the Prime
Minister rubbishing the Treasury for their estimate of a
hundred and ten billion dollars. Nick Smith dismisses
Treasury's figures as "fantasyland" while defending rises in
ACC levies on motorbikes as thousands join a big bikoi on
Parliament.
