PM Accepts That ETS Legislation May Have To Be Delayed
The PM was very sensible on Checkpoint tonight when confronted by the Green's blackmail attempt on the ETS. She reminded the audience of the assurances that had been given to agriculture about 2013 and said that if she did not have the numbers she would delay the vote on the ETS. The interview is not yet up on the Radio NZ website but should be soon.
