This presents a huge opportunity to consider how the system works as an integrated whole and to advise on strengthening its coherence and alignment. The Ministry has led and supported unprecedented engagement with teachers, whānau, tamariki, rangatahi, community leaders and employers on every aspect of the Education Work Programme. The results of that engagement will mostly be revealed or decided after the end of this annual reporting period. We have also provided advice for government decisions to improve the National Certificate of Education Achievement (NCEA) and release a new Learning Support Action Plan setting out priority improvements to strengthen learning support. To improve our core learning support services we are implementing a new Learning Support Delivery Model We have a role in both shaping the across more than 200 clusters of around 3,000 education system and delivering schools and early learning services. services to achieve equitable and excellent outcomes. For 2018/19 To improve equity we are working to support Māori that has involved maintaining and education success as Māori. We have co-designed improving our core services while Te Hurihanganui – to address racism in the education listening to and engaging New system and better support whānau – and started Zealanders on the Government’s implementing Te Ahu o Te Reo Māori to improve the extensive Education Work capability of the workforce to use te reo Māori. Programme. Woven through all of our advice is the overwhelming message from New Zealanders for hauora | wellbeing and a strong sense of belonging to be hallmarks of education in Aotearoa. There was also a call for the voices of young people to be heard and for their identity, culture and language to be respected and responded to. New Zealanders also asked for the system to be fair, easier for all ākonga | learners to navigate, and open to high levels of whānau and community connection. The focus on hauora is evident in the Government’s Child and Youth Wellbeing Strategy and Joint Venture to Eliminate Family Violence and Sexual Violence. The Ministry of Education is a key partner with the Ministries of Oranga Tamariki, Health, Justice, Social Development and others to make social services more integrated and the whole greater than the sum of its parts.

  • Effect of Centralised Wage Bargaining in New Zealand
    Effects of Centralised Wage Bargaining in New Zealand By Paul Mackay Introduction Productivity and sustainability are the current buzzwords of the New Zealand political conversation, and have been for some time. Despite all the talk, however, there is still no firm consensus on what is needed to create let alone enhance productivity and sustainability. The perpetual political contest between preferences for regulatory or deregulatory approaches continues as strongly as ever. Unsurprisingly, New Zealand’s centre left Labour opposition exhibits a preference for a regulated approach to the economy generally and, in particular, the labour market. It also has expressed interest in returning to a more centralised way of determining wages and conditions of employment. Other than continuing a tradition of adjusting the Minimum Wage on an annual basis, the present national government has tended to stay clear of direct intervention in the setting of wages and conditions at any level. This article examines the New Zealand labour market with specific reference to the effects of centralised versus enterprise level collective bargaining . The evidence presented here suggests that national or industry based approaches to collective bargaining are more likely to be economically damaging than deregulated or enterprise level approaches. Therefore, the conclusions support a minimalist approach to labour market regulation. A short history News Zealand legislative approach to labour relations dates from 1894, with the introduction of the Industrial Conciliation and Arbitration Act 1894. Since then, New Zealand has experienced several distinct phases of labour relations and related government intervention in the labour market. Between 1894 and 1987, employment conditions were established through a system of occupationally based awards bargained for at national level.

  • A RETROSPECTIVE on the WOODHOUSE REPORT: the VISION, the PERFORMANCE and the FUTURE Rt Hon Sir Geoffrey Palmer QC*
    401 A RETROSPECTIVE ON THE WOODHOUSE REPORT: THE VISION, THE PERFORMANCE AND THE FUTURE Rt Hon Sir Geoffrey Palmer QC* The following is a revised version of the second Woodhouse Memorial Lecture given at both the Victoria University of Wellington and the University of Auckland in September 2018. It traces the history and policy iterations of New Zealand's accident compensation scheme that flowed from the 1967 Woodhouse Report (the Report), a Royal Commission report chaired by Sir Owen Woodhouse. It discusses the features of the Report and the determination it showed to get rid of the common law action for damages for personal injury. It analyses the degree to which the Report was not followed in the journey it took through the political decision-making system. There is a critical analysis of the delivery of benefits, the administration of the scheme and its financing. The performance in accident prevention and rehabilitation is briefly covered. The method of settling disputes in the scheme has seen an unwelcome return to legalism. The lecture concludes with a strong plea to remove the anomalies created by the accident compensation scheme between the vicitims of accident who receive earnings related-benefit and those who are dealt with under the Social Security Act 2018 under which they receive flat rate benefits. The lecture concludes with some lessons for policymakers. I INTRODUCTION This lecture is part of a Festschrift for Professor Gordon Anderson who has given sterling service to the Victoria University of Wellington. He has specialised in employment law and the regulation of labour and work.

  • Leaders' Debate – Don Brash and Helen Clark 22Nd
    LEADERS’ DEBATE – DON BRASH AND HELEN CLARK 22ND AUGUST 2005, TVONE PRESENTER: MARK SAINSBURY MARK SAINSBURY: Good evening. Welcome to this One News special – the Leaders’ Debate. I’m Mark Sainsbury. In less than four weeks, one of our two guests tonight will be destined to lead the country as Prime Minister for the next three years. They are, of course, Helen Clark, Labour’s leader and current Prime Minister – welcome. And welcome also to National’s Don Brash, currently Leader of the Opposition. Tonight for the first time, they meet in a televised debate. We’re here in our Auckland studios in front of an audience made up of an equal number of Labour supporters on one side, and on the other, those backing National this election. Before we begin, just a few rules – this will be a debate. We hope that the two leaders will engage with each other and not have to wait for me to invite them in, but I am here to moderate the discussion, to discourage overly lengthy answers and to make sure we hear from both. Now, we’ll be giving you at home a chance to participate in this debate as well. Go to the website www.tvnz.co.nz and type in the word ‘debate’ and you can email us till 9 o’clock tonight with your thoughts. We’ll be reporting that reaction later in the evening on Tonight and tomorrow on One News and Close Up at 7. Well, let’s get started. We’ve tossed a coin and the first speaker will be Don Brash.

  • Cracking a Dozen
    KiwiSaver 12 cracking a dozen KiwiSaver Annual Market Report 2019 By David Chaplin © David Chaplin 2019 Introduction According to TrustedPsychicMediums.com, the “angel number 12 represents growth and success”. Less trustworthy Psychic Mediums are also pretty upbeat about 12. NumerologySecrets.net, for example, reveals that if “you have 12 on your side, you can be assured of a rich and fulfilling life through the ages”. But you can’t always count on 12: as per previous reporting periods, KiwiSaver, in its 12th year of operation, has been six of one, half a dozen of the other. And as the KiwiSaver market moved through this auspicious numerological alignment over the 12 months to March 31, 2019, the psychics were, probably, half-right right, on average. All of the 31 schemes captured by this study reported growth in funds under management (FUM) and positive investment returns. About two-thirds of the KiwiSaver population also grew net membership with the, mostly, usual collection of shrinking schemes in tow. However, both total FUM and member growth – of 17.3 per cent and 3.4 per cent, respectively – were, in aggregate, down on the previous year’s effort. In these generally flat conditions, only a handful of schemes could claim the 2018/19 year as the outstanding success promised by the psychics. For example, just six schemes saw double-digit member growth over the 12-month period: while that’s consistent with the last couple of years, the scale of expansion, even for fast-growing schemes, eased considerably. With members harder to come by, the two new providers to launch during 2018/19 – Nikko Asset Management and the Pie Funds-owned Juno - did not repeat the most recent debut success story.
