3179 (2024). Rt Hon Chris Hipkins to the Prime Minister

3179 (2024). Rt Hon Chris Hipkins to the Prime Minister: On what date, if any, did he speak to Hon. Melissa Lee regarding Hon. David Seymour’s comments regarding a TVNZ journalist "These are the people that cry, oh you've got to give us sympathy, and you're inhumane and you should be kinder to us”, “I think it shows their delightful lack of self-awareness and immaturity” and “Immediately into my mind flashed a particularly self-indulgent piece of reporting I saw sometime last week. I think the total overreaction to my comments by media that they might need a bit less indulgence and a bit more self-reflection really just served to illustrate my point perfectly.”?

Rt Hon Christopher Luxon: I did not speak to Melissa Lee about these comments made by David Seymour.
