Television New Zealand's hour-long weekly current affairs programme presenting mini-documentaries on topical local issues.

  • 1Aftershock Local residents talk about the emotional and financial aftershock of the Bay of Plenty earthquake. After two months, the 25,000 residents affected have become so desperate, they have asked for international aid. They believe the Government is largely ignoring the magnitude of the damage and say they feel cheated by what the Earthquake and War Damages Commission (EQC) is offering.

  • 2Needless Delay Hepatitis B, caused by a virus similar to the AIDS virus, is already rife throughout New Zealand. Widespread vaccination is a relatively easy preventative measure, but arguments about vaccination techniques and the cost of such a campaign, have prevented a national vaccination programme being rolled out. Could a continued delay see the arrival of a Hep B epidemic to rival the seriousness of AIDS?
