The State of the Welfare
The State of the Welfare
The "Welfare State" will surely never be right because there are too many competing views as to what would make it right.
To look at the enormity of the problem, this week's guest In Conversation with Noel Cheer on Triangle Television is Associate Professor Susan St John, co-director of the Retirement Policy and Research Centre at the University of Auckland.
She also says: “New Zealand’s poorest children should not be carrying the burden of tax cuts for the wealthy and bailouts for finance companies.”
Triangle Television, Wednesday April 18th at 7:00pm and repeated Thursday April 19th at 12:30pm.
Triangle Television can be received in metropolitan Auckland on UHF Channels 41, 42 and 52.

Television is also transmitted live on streaming TV – a
newly emerging technology – which can be received on
