An update from Simon O'Connor MP for Tamaki ANZAC Day: announced. I am pleased to Honouring our veterans say there have been many to date, with the most recent two being around education and agriculture. These sit beside announcements on crime, the economy, and Three Waters. As we have just commemorated Anzac Day, I would like to start by acknowledging our veterans. As I laid wreathes at our three local services, I recall those who made the ultimate sacrifice; honour those who fought and served in various wars; and thank those who continue to serve in our armed forces and other services. We are fortunate to live in a country with such freedoms, hard fought for and maintained. At the heart of our education announcement is a commitment to teaching children an hour of reading, writing, and maths every day. We also want to further support our teachers, with many having told us they want further development to increase their competency and confidence. Linked to all of this is an ability to assess achievement so that families can better understand how a student is progressing. Education - back to basics Going around the electorate, a frequent question is around what policies National has Paid for by the Parliamentary Service. Authorised by Simon O'Connor, Parliament Buildings, Wellington When farmers succeed, New Zealand succeeds National recognises that farming is the backbone of our economy. Last year, agriculture exports totalled $41 billion (63 per cent of goods exports). Within our agricultural announcement, we want to see much less bureaucracy foisted onto our farmers and so we are committed to removing two farm regulations for any one new one introduced. In honour of those who served, we will remember them this Anzac Day Three Waters - new name, same concerns This all stands in contrast to the current government, whose recent announcement was to rename Three Waters to Affordable Water Reforms.
