A great feedback and point of view from you Mr. Simon
As you mentioned we have major downfall in our economy and money is very tight thanks to the previous administration and their addiction to higher spending with nothing to show for it expect a higher crime rate and absolute division everywhere in New Zealand.
i believe this government has been left a lot of work to complete in many different sections of our society and governing bodies such as Defiance , Crime , and infrastructure and most importantly in Health
We all can see that almost all of New Zealand allies are increasing their spending in military and introducing new laws regarding military draft and mandatory military service for those eligible while here in New Zealand we have not been able to catch up just yet.
However i think we all can agree that Health and Corrections/Crime must be put first in line just like it has been by these new announcements by the government about funding more drugs and a change in the jurisdiction system plus the long deserved extra funding for front line police and more tools to stop the gang growth in this country.
I really think the problems that were have with infrastructure and some parts of defense force isn't just due to low funding but rather a complete mismanagement and dishonesty by contactors and councils.
Of curse funding also plays a very crucial role in the growth of these sectors and helps with buying new equipment and creating modern infrastructure however we also sadly witnessed that with the previous government and the substantial amount of money that they spent nothing was done and on the other hand we went backwards as there was too much money and an absolute mismanagement from both the local and federal government .
Also we must also take into consideration that good and essential infrastructure and modernizing a defense force is done in span of many decades and in many parts in order to complete each project with complete focus and up to a high standard, Doing this helps both with the quality of our projects and it means councils and government are not managing multi billion dollar projects at the same time which has been resulting in poor management and helps contactors to keep delaying the projects which eventually results in higher costs and very long delays
Its the same case for the defense force and their equipment and rusty accommodation, both of the result of poor funding and more the bad management.
If only they would have started to make very small improvements to their fleet and accommodations across New Zealand with their current funding we would have had very less to work on now and the bill would have defiantly been cheaper if adjusted with inflation.
Health and Crime/Corrections also have mismanagement issues, especially in our courts but i believe they have also had very low funding for a very long time and most of the current issues are the result of that , a complete opposite reason compare to other sectors like Defense and infrastructure
A big funding for more much needed drugs and better justice system is a great start to a road filled with many holes that needs fillings and fundings

Definitely - this will come down to priorities and keeping the likes of health front and centre is important.
How about Carmel Sepuloni
