PM Jacinda Ardern on Jones' work-for-the-dole proposal

From Morning Report, 7:26 am on 4 December 2017

Regional Economic Development Minister Shane Jones says there'll be "no more sitting on the couch" for the young & unemployed. He told TVNZ's Q+A that he'll be taking a work-for-the-dole scheme to Cabinet before Christmas. But he's admitted not all of his Labour colleagues see eye-to-eye with his proposal. Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern joins Guyon Espiner to discuss the idea.
