The approach of zero based budgeting should be applied to regulation regularly. A government should constantly ask what is the minimum number of rules we need to achieve the desired outcome. Good luck to the ministry of regulation who appear to be on a mission to do exactly that!
Good regulations should be based on the outcome of an assessment through regulatory impact statements or socioeconomic cost benefit analysis from a NZ Inc perspective. Without such assessments it cant be said whether a regulation is good, bad or just right.
Our kids are sacrificed to neo liberalism. Parents must work, that's where the PAYE comes from, so the economy demands that toddlers are thrown to strangers and that parents are not home until 6pm. Any cost benefit analysis would reveal that a quarter of kids are therefor young crims by their mid teens. Which costs way more to clean up than the extra PAYE of all parents working. Early childhood education is a sop to state subjugation; an economy that requires kids in their early years to be separated from parents is an economy, and a society, in desperate straits. A progressive society has no early childhood abandonment, it has whanau and grandparents, and it has a parent at home when kids get home from school.
Bloody Brilliant. Finally a bit of common sense.
Well done David, finally some clear direction.

Having 2 parents in the home has the most positive outcome, first and foremost.
Completely agreed
Definitely agree. But good luck with this. Such positions attract a certain type of person.
Great work David Seymour. Checks and balances during the new policy role out, definitely let"s us know how things are tracking.
Philippa Howden-Chapman wrote very good article about housing nz and its benefits in the Press 5 July
Get IANZ/MBIE under control. Building Inspectors are scared to make risk based decisions for fear of IANZ ripping them a new one.
We are going back in time .. the regulation ministry used to be part of the Ministry of Education for example.
One big question i always have about ECE, why in the world does babysitting require a 3 year bachelors degree ?😢
So Ministry of Regulation is like Internal Audit
Why not fix the Govt depts so that regulation review is baked into their process, rather than have another dept
Min of Regs means that other departments cannot mark their own homework.
Dave 👍
David is all about early childhood education - he Snapchats them😂😂
Gross.
