Tonight, on The Panel, Wallace Chapman is joined by panellists Claire Amos and Patrick Phelps. First up, more than half a million hectares of West Coast land have been taken out of limbo after nearly forty years. Conservation Minister Tama Potaka has divvied up 80 percent of Stewardship land in the region. the panel hears from federated farmers and former green party MP Eugenie Sage about the changes. Then, another hit of The Panel Soapbox - this week we hear from William. he's a landlord and he says he's disgusted by the "horror stories of dreadful damp, mold and general slum situations' by renters. #notalllandlords
