I disagree with you. I think the general public have no idea what Andrew Coster does. We get to see the results of his management of the senior police and their policing policies and strategies as directed to him by the Minister. Under Jacinda et al., his and the rest of the police were hindered. The protest in Parliament was a perfect example - it was a Labour Party / Green Party motivated disgrace and the police were probably instructed to let it continue. But the truth is - we don't know and we'll probably never know. I believe Andrew Coster did an excellent job under the circumstances (don't forget Covid, lock downs etc - not normal times). I do think all Civil Servants should be held to a very high standard - they are public servants and they cost the working New Zealander in the form of tax. There should be much closer scrutiny on how every dollar of tax payer generated money is spent and any waste or corruption should be punished severely. Civil servants work for the general public who also pay their salaries and for their working conditions. They should be permanently working in austerity - and not expect to have most luxurious working conditions. They serve the New Zealand public - it's not the other way around, which is how it usually feels when I visit a government office, i.e. they seem to think that I am one of their subjects. Are we all aware that several government departments (use tax payer funds) to supply female staff with period products? AND because of gender issues, these are also available in the men's washrooms - WTF!!!
I think that's a very naive and uninformed comment. If you read the reports, the whole case against that gang began more than a year ago and took several angles, i.e. some careful, long-term planning to achieve a very effective outcome (= get rid of that gang completely).
My understanding is, those that commit crimes against humanity...as Coster did... then they are put in jail. Why do criminals in our society, walk free? Please explain. Theres 1600 of them from 2022.

@@fatbastard70- yes I do know what that means. Those cops beat men, women and children. They allowed the Government to use torture tactics on the citizens, sprinklers, and repetitive 3 songs on loop.

I'm not sure it is going to be that easy to wind back WFH in the state sector. Many government departments have championed flexible working arrangements, particularly during recruitment, meaning that WFH has in fact become a contractual entitlement for many. So the courts would probably take a different from the Minister as to whether it is an entitlement. It will be interesting to see the legal challenges!
And they convinced many that it was "the way of the future" Nek minnut. But, the logic Willis is trying to invoke seems unnerving to me. So people should increase co2 by coming in to work, running air conditioning on higher power (consuming more electricity) and then more co2 to go home. And the "benefit" the worker gets is the privilege of spending their own money buying coffees and lunch at expensive cafes, effectively reducing their pay. So the role of those public sector employees is to be consumers first and workers second. Really? And that makes sense in her head? Brilliant.

To all those public servants moaning about having to go in to work, the people who sold you the pie and coffee have to and they earn a whole lot less. So no, you don't need extra compensation to turn up for the job you interviewed for and accepted.
Nicola Willis are you bloody kidding. He was usless and not honest in my opinion. Nicola I really thought you were open and honest. 🤔 You are a disappoinment in my view 🤔😎
Tax is not bottomless empty office space is costing and well carpeted and furnished along with being diverse inclusive and equitable get back to work snowflakes.
public servants took a lower pay job in government garanteed job, if they were top performers who could work from home they would be in private sector. With average rate increase again above twice inflation rate, not a good look them working from home.
two interesting obsevations from Elon musk, who has completely BANNED work from home in all his organisations. 1) WFH does not cheapen his office space requirements. 2) people who work from home do not have the difficult conversations to improve their work environment and instead focus ENTIRELY on getting to work from home more.
Those that work at home, in the office,nor a combo of the two....has nothing to do with the Government. It's agreements between the Employer and employee. Obviously if it didn't suit the employer, it wouldn't be happening. But out yet again interfering Government. Not needed.

I'm going to need a source on those stats, holy shit what a delusional statement as though Jim Anderton is just being co opted back into the Labor party with a bit of historical fiction
I do not think it is the right that think Andrew Coster was weak, I think in general most kiwis think of him as not being up to the job.
Common sense, would be REMOVING the fixed daily charge off our Electricity Bills.
Public Service Commissioner needs investigated.
Coster needs to be fired and prevented from holding any government role.
Zero faith in Nicola Willis.

This was really not a good interview for her.
The police will be better now that guy is going. Why would you want give him a job somewhere else.
But he didnt do anything about the Comancheros until after the government had told him to get off his backside and sort it out.

@fatbastard70 How much had he done on it while Labour was in?
It was a 3 year investigation
I was told that there isn’t enough desks for all the public servants to turn up to work.
That tells us there’s too many of them.
