99 days out from the election and some voters are still very much undecided. Oranga Tamariki was in the news again, along with a report from the Chief Science Advisory highlighting the complex issue of tackling gangs and the need for early intervention. The government tried to focus on health this week with a range of announcements, and National had their own health focus saying they will, if elected, build a new medical school at Waikato university. The Prime Minister is off on another trip overseas despite just returning from one. And, in an Inside Parliament first, Benedict Collins also reveals his ringtone by rudely leaving his phone off silent, but makes up for it by giving Felix a new ringtone with three special words.
Featuring 1News Senior Political Reporter Benedict Collins, Digital Political Reporter Felix Desmarais and Political Producer Lillian Hanly.
