The new Minister of Tourism, Stuart Nash, has divided the country's tourism providers with comments made about the value of backpackers, a ban on campervans which are not self-contained, and focusing firming on attracting the wealthiest of tourists once the border opens. Karyn asks the Minister what he means by New Zealand's unique opportunity for a reset.

10:30 Young women counter body image messages 

A new study shows young women are able to counter the pressure put upon them and their appearance by social media. The University of Otago study has found those with a positive body image are critical of how the media can lead women to believe they are only as valuable as they are physically beautiful. But young women with a positive body image say there are more important things than judging people on the way they look, or dress. Karyn speaks with the lead author of the study, Phoebe Poulter.
