The Prime Minister has shared new details about his phone call with Donald Trump. 

Christopher Luxon has had a one-on-one chat with the US President Elect yesterday morning, a call Trump was late for.  

But Luxon told Mike Hosking it was a warm conversation and a productive chat, covering everything from international conflict to golf. 

Luxon says Trump's perception of New Zealand, and our Government, is very positive. 

He’s also confirmed that a new compensation scheme for abuse in care survivors will be in place by mid-2025. 

Redress was a major talking point at yesterday's historic national apology. 

Luxon's already committing a further $32 million to the existing settlement process. 

He told Hosking that the Government's also working as fast as possible to get a new redress system in place. 

Luxon says there's a lot of design work to be done, as the current claims process goes through four different Government agencies, who all work at different speeds.
