Bruce consults with recognised world experts (in Canada, Ireland and Germany) to discuss their global research – this time on foreign capital and housing affordability and the effect of immigration on house prices. Bruce also looks at some of the many possible solutions (available particularly in Germany) that would provide families with stability of tenure that don’t involve private ownership.
Bryan Bruce examines the New Zealand public education system. He finds that administratively Tomorrow's Schools have been a disaster and that an individual test based system isn't the best way to prepare our children for a future that no one can predict.
