Laurenson, Inspector Tyrone

A Samoan policeman plays a key role in working with Polynesian street kids in Christchurch's inner city. Inspector Tyrone Laurenson who is normally based in South Auckland, travelled to Christchurch to help work with Polynesian youth on the streets. He says the situation there is similar to that of Auckland in the 1960s. He is interviewed about his work in Christchurch.

South Auckland may be the site for a major new market.

And the South Pacific Forum comes under the spotlight, with the Alliance saying maybe it's time the organisation was restructured.
