Labour MP & Minister Hon Nanaia Mahuta
Pat Spellman was lucky enough to catch up with the Minister for Maori Development, and the MP for Hauraki Waikato Hon Nanaia Mahuta whilst she was in town attending the Grand opening of the new K Mart, on behalf of the Government.
Pat and Nanaia had a good korero about what the opening of the K Mart means to the local business economy, as well as what the Minister thought about the amalgamation of Maori News services in NZ, what her focus will be on as we move forward into 2018 and if she gave any parenting advice to the PM about how to balance Bubbas in the Beehive.
