The Panel with Aimie Hines and Tim Batt Part 1
Tonight on The Panel, Wallace Chapman is joined by panellists Aimie Hines and Tim Batt. Last night Tasman resident Rose Renton told the story of her home being caught in two floods. Could dredging of the Wai-iti River have made a difference? And if so why does the Tasman District Council restrict it? Tonight the Tasman District Council answers Rose's concerns. The Panel also hears from Sue Chetwin, chair of the Grocery Action Group about the Commerce Commission's plans to take legal action against Foodstuffs North Island and its subsidiary Gilmours Wholesale for alleged "cartel behaviour".

Weather warnings across many parts of the country
Residents and businesses at the top if the South Island are holding their breaths as the already sodden regions face an orange heavy rain warning. Tasman, Nelson and parts of Marlborough - which are all still under states of emergency - have had alerts over possible further flooding and slips as rain continues throughout the areas are still cleaning up from last weekend's deluge that caused widespread flood damage. Other parts of the country are also under orange warnings over heavy rain including Taranaki maunga, northern Taihape and Tongariro National Park and Bay of Plenty west of Opotiki. RNZ's Tess Brunton has been out and about since daylight and joins Kathryn from Wakefield near the Wai-iti River.
