Chest thumping will not change a single thing: Michael Wood
. The main role of his ministry is to ensure the smooth functioning of the day to day working in the biggest city in coordination with the Auckland Council. He said there is no big budget or laws or levers to pull and his role is to ensure that everyone is working in the same direction for the betterment of the city. On being asked about the plans of general amnesty scheme by the government for the overstayers in the country he said its certainly on the cards though he can’t give a specific time frame for it, but he hoped it should happen before the elections in October. About the new migrant workers exploitation, Minister was critical of some unscrupulous employers who are still abusing the new migrant employees and not fulfilling their accreditation conditions, but he said his government has a zero-tolerance policy for such elements. Government is keeping an eye over such dodgy employers and if they repeatedly fail to comply with their accreditation conditions, their accreditation licence will be cancelled. He said this kind of small number of rogue elements exist in every society and they need to be dealt with firmly as per the laws.
