On home shores, Mark Patterson was
Wellington-based for a few extra days, attending the Federated Farmers Primary
Industry Conference. There was an emphasis on getting rid of the regulatory burden on our
rural sector
and doubling New
Zealand’s exports in the next decade. Mark wrapped up day two on stage as part of a
panel discussing the future of strong wool in New
Zealand.

Blenheim-based MP Jamie Arbuckle travelled further up the
country to spend time in the winterless North. He met with local
councillors, businesses
and community groups, talking all things Northland, focussing on the
environment and
tourism – easy to do in such a beautiful part of New
Zealand that has
so much to offer.

Our very own
Northland-based MP, Hon Shane Jones continues to shine a light on
regional development, resources
and energy. Hear
from him directly on these recent clips:
There has been plenty more to follow from the past week
or two through
our social media
channels, and
regular interviews. Here’ s a sample to keep you updated as school
holidays kick into gear and the winter frosts settle in.
