Taranaki Port says it could be ready to import Liquefied Natural Gas by 2027, if Government passes new regulations. 

Cabinet's agreed to end the ban stopping the imports in efforts to boost energy supply and ease power bills. 

It will also speed up overturning a ban on oil and gas exploration, and will review the electricity market's performance.

The port's Chief Executive Simon Craddock told Mike Hosking that the infrastructure to import LNG could be ready in 18 months, 

But, he says, it would take longer for vessels to be in the same position.

Simon Craddock: Taranaki Port CEO on the ability of the port to import Liquefied Natural Gas by 2027

Alison Moyet rose to fame in the 80’s as one half of the synth-pop duo ‘Yazoo’, going solo just one year later as the duo disbanded.

Her career has spanned four decades, 9 studio albums, two of which went to number one on the charts, and 23 million albums sold.

She’s returning to New Zealand for the first time in eight years, bringing her upcoming album ‘Keys’ to Kiwi audiences.

Moyet told Mike Hosking that singing live is her main focus, and so everything she does in terms of recording is to direct it towards the stage.

She’s been making music and evolving as an artist for 40 years, and Moyet revealed that while there is still some anxiety when it comes to making new music and going on tour, she knows she has a group of steadfast supporters.

“I’m really excited to be there for them,” Moyet told Hosking.

Having performed for so many years, Moyet is aware that this won’t last forever.

“Every time I go on tour, I’m very aware that it could be the last time that I do it,” she said.

“So just the, the, the thought that I could come out there at least one more time and have a chance to perform is you know, it's obviously an exciting thing to be able to do.”

French politics are still in a deadlock, with no permanent government in sight. 

President Emmanuel Macron's been holding talks with both the leftist New Popular Front and the far-right National Rally. 

National Rally leader Marine Le Pen says she'll block any potential left wing Prime Minister, despite the left securing more of the vote. 

France correspondent Catherine Field told Mike Hosking the caretaker government is somewhat liked, but that could just be the lingering buzz from the Paris Olympics. 

She says no one's really woken up to the fact that France needs a real government as a caretaker government is constitutionally restrained.
