In the final Politics Wednesday of 2024, Labour’s Ginny Andersen and National’s Mark Mitchell joined Mike Hosking to dig into this week’s biggest political stories.  

With just one sitting session left for the year, Parliament has shifted its focus to examining Government agencies for this year’s Scrutiny Week.  

Ginny Andersen told Mike Hosking that it’s important to hold people accountable – if people are saying things that aren’t true, then they need to front up and explain where they got the numbers from.  

Mark Mitchell agrees the week is a good idea. 

He told Hosking that it’s another way of having scrutiny and transparency around what agencies are doing.  

Mitchell says we've got one of the most transparent systems, and we should keep improving it.
