Minister to Air NZ: Don’t neglect regions

From Nine To Noon, 9:09 am on 20 March 2018

The Minister for Regional Economic Development Minister Shane Jones has criticised Air New Zealand for degrading its services to the regions. Mr Jones's comments come after Air New Zealand's abrupt withdrawal from flights into Kapiti - it gave the region just three weeks notice that it would pull out. Kathryn Ryan speaks with Minister Jones and with the mayors of Gisborne and Whangarei districts, Meng Foon and Sheryl Mai.
