In the lead up to the 2007 youth parliament I found this item on 3 news tonight.

"MPs are planning to change the way cameras are allowed to report on events in Parliament.
The rules will be loosened to allow wider, more extensive shots of the house – but journalists will not be able to satirise, ridicule or denigrate MPs.
This means New Zealand’s politicians are planning to make it illegal for the media to poke fun at them, and ensure they are always shown in a good light"
Whilst on the topic of Youth Parliament, in the latest information pack, i discovered that I, along with fellow MP Mania, have a seat on the Maori Affairs Select Committee where we will be debating one of the 10 topics voted. I also got my accomodation details i.e Billets and such.
Theres not much time left to go before we go to Wellington. I honestly can't wait. I am hoping that I could get time off work for an informal lunch to meet fellow Youth MPs and proper MPs.
