Pollies: National's Mark Mitchell and Labour's Ginny Andersen on boy racers, ferries, police numbers

The Mike Hosking Breakfast - En podcast af Newstalk ZB

There's a hold-up for the Government's latest crackdown on boy racers.  Police Minister Mark Mitchell had said he'd introduce legislation this year giving police new powers to seize vehicles from boy racers following a string of illegal meetups.  But that will no longer happen.  Mitchell told Heather du Plessis-Allan the law change wasn't as simple as he thought it would be.  He says there's still complexity to work through, but it's at the front of the queue for next year.  Labour’s Ginny Andersen says that between this and the delay in training new police, there seems to be a pattern where Mitchell promises big things and doesn’t follow through.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
