26302 (2023). Hon Willie Jackson to the Minister for Media and Communications: Does the Minister agree with Rt. Hon. Winston Peter’s statement that “Well, we'll see the speed at which TVNZ and RNZ - which are taxpayer owned - understand this new message. We'll see whether these people, both the media and journalists - are they independent? Well, isn't that fascinating, I've never seen evidence of that in the last three years”, if not, why not?

Hon Melissa Lee: The Coalition Government is made up of three distinct parties and we have a range of views and voices. What we all agree on and what we are totally united on, is how to fix New Zealand.
