Expert panel recommends improvements in Defence Force

From Midday Report, 12:18 pm on 15 November 2021

An expert panel has pointed out gaps in the Defence Force's organisational structure and the way it shares information.

The panel, set up just over a year ago following the Operation Burnham inquiry, recommends strengthening the integration between the Defence Force and Minister of Defence - and between the Special Air Service with the wider organisation.

Max Towle is joined by RNZ political reporter Anneke Smith who has just been looking at the report and hearing from the Minister.
