Labour's questioning the Government's decision to bring forward the introduction of the Treaty Principles Bill. 

The bill was introduced to the House yesterday ahead of its first reading next week. 

If adopted, it would set treaty principles into law to be used when interpreting legislation. 

Labour's Justice Spokesperson, Duncan Webb, told Ryan Bridge that introducing the bill 11 days earlier than expected appears to have been a strategic move. 

Webb says introducing it during US election week has helped keep it on the "low down".

The meat sector is bracing for the impact of a Donald Trump presidency. 

The President-Elect has campaigned on tariffs of up to 20% on all imports, with higher tariffs for imports from China. 

The US is our largest market for red meat. 

Meat Industry Association Chair Nathan Guy told Ryan Bridge the tariff plan will hit the sector pretty hard. 

He says it will hit US consumers even harder as they'll have to pay more for the red meat and burger patties we produce.

Rosemary Banks – remember that name.

She now has one of the most important jobs for New Zealand – a potentially $2 billion job.

She's woman in Washington DC, our ambassador to the United States.

Her mission: get us an exemption from Trump's tariffs.

The scale of the problem: massive.

Early estimates show that at 20% it could cost us $1.7 billion every year. Total exports currently $8.8 billion.

It can be done: the Aussies got an exemption on steel and aluminium in 2018 under Trump.

Is she up to the job? I'm told yes. If anyone can do it, Rosemary Banks is the person you want up there.

I'm told she has excellent contacts in the Republican Party and is working the phones hard.

She was asked to stay on by Winston Peters back in May, in anticipation Trump might get in.

She's the same ambassador who was in charge when we nearly got an FTA during Trump's first term.

Of course, it's not all on her. Winston and Todd McClay and Luxon will play their parts too. But the ground game is on Rosemary.

We may have some advantage here in that we export food, and food is something Trump probably doesn't want to make more expensive.

Then there's the uncertainty of whether Trump will actually make good on his campaign big talk.

Rosemary's not waiting round for that certainty, they have a plan and by God it better be a good one.

We like to hate on diplomats - oh they just go to nice dinners, drink wine and shmooze. Well, it's time to crack out our best pinot, use the contacts and make the deals happen.

The weight of our export nation is on your shoulders.

Best of luck.
