Kathryn looks the issue of what to do with communities threatened by coastal erosion. A recent RMA review panel recommended legislation to deal with the managed retreat from areas affected by climate change - and Labour has said it's committed to implementing the review's core recommendations.

Also joining the discussion is Local Government NZ President Stuart Crosby and Rob Bell, Niwa's Principal Scientist Coastal and Estuarine Physical Processes.
