9am Sundays on TV ONE

On Q+A this week…

A disastrous week for New Zealand and possibly the government. As Rena continues to spew oil and cargo into the waters and beaches in the Bay of Plenty, Q+A has Greens co-Leader Russel Norman live in the studio. Norman has been highly critical of the government’s response – but what would he have done differently?

Then Steven Joyce joins us in the studio. As the Minister ultimately in charge of the Rena situation, Joyce will provide the latest update on the cleanup and recovery, and also answer questions about who will pay for the cleanup, and whether local residents will receive compensation.

Later, Damian Christie presents the first in a series of Q+A pre-election stories on various electorates around the country. This week it's Epsom, where the latest polls have Act’s John Banks trailing National’s Paul Goldsmith. Is Act about to disappear from NZ politics? What would this mean for National?

Following the preview Q+A holds a live debate between Epsom’s three main candidates – Act’s John Banks, National’s Paul Goldsmith and Labour’s David Parker.

On the panel with Dr Jon Johansson are former Act MP Deborah Coddington and former All Blacks captain Anton Oliver.

Q+A, 9-10am Sundays on TV ONE. Repeats at 9.10pm Sundays, 9:05am and 1:05pm Mondays on TVNZ 7
