Seymour explains Regulatory Standards Bill, charter schools
Over subsequent Parliaments, ACT has tried to pass a version of the Regulatory Standards Bill — with limited success, until now. Deputy Prime Minister and Regulation Minister David Seymour explains how he thinks the bill will work. Q+A questions him about his selection of principles, whether the Government follows its own ideas of good regulation, and some legal uncertainties created by the bill.
.
As Associate Education Minister, Seymour is leading work on setting up charter schools. But the demand for state schools to undergo conversion to charter has been lower than expected. Jack Tame asks Seymour why.

Opportunity: TOP rebrands as it chases 5% MMP threshold
The political outfit formerly known as The Opportunities Party is continuing to chase the 5% MMP threshold to enter Parliament.
.
It's been almost a decade now since the party burst into the political scene, in its early days bankrolled by rich-lister and philanthropist Gareth Morgan who positioned it as a vehicle for "evidence-based" policy that's neither firmly right nor left.
.
Q+A meets Opportunity's new leader Qiulae Wong, who has a background in sustainable business. Wong says the party has, in the past, been rightly criticised for being overly focused on policy at the expense of connecting with people.
