The Prime Minister is set to drip feed the Government's policy changes.

Chris Hipkins’ policy cull will be a topic at today's cabinet meeting, with all eyes on the RNZ-TVNZ merger.

It comes after a newly reshuffled Cabinet was asked to take another look at its priorities, in a bid to get back to political basics.

Political commentator Clint Smith told Kate Hawkesby we'll likely see some announcements, but not everything in one go.

He says the advantage the Opposition has is that it can just make an announcement and that's its policy.

But Smith says with the whole machinery of government behind things, decisions have to be taken at Cabinet, and that takes some time.
