Political Party Debate

This panel brings together representatives from across Parliament for a constructive, cross party discussion on how New Zealand can better take on risk.

Aligned with the conference theme Taking on Risk, the discussion will explore the practical steps homeowners, government, councils, the private sector and communities can take to reduce exposure to natural hazards, strengthen resilience, and help ensure insurance remains accessible and sustainable for New Zealanders.

We’re pleased to welcome Chlöe Swarbrick, co leader of the Green Party; Shane Jones, New Zealand First deputy leader; and Dr Parjeet Parmar, ACT spokesperson for Commerce and Consumer Affairs.
