Todd Valster: Rail and Maritime Transport Union General Secretary on the new ferry announcement

As the future of the Cook Strait ferries becomes clearer, some are lamenting how long it's taken.   Two new road and rail-enabled ferries and port-side infrastructure will be ready by late 2029.   Rail and Maritime Transport Union General Secretary Todd Valster says while the cost isn't public yet, he's happy they will be rail-enabled.   He told Andrew Dickens the delays haven't given people confidence.   Valster says the previous Government's plan took ages to put together and there's been more delays as this Government's plan has emerged.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
