    Labour's Deputy says running Government like a business - means treating people like commodities

    Labour's Deputy says running Government like a business - means treating people like commodities


    The Government's released a 36-point check-list - to be completed by June 30.

    It includes delivering tax relief, reintroducing Three Strikes sentencing - and creating a plan around school attendance.

    Carmel Sepuloni says putting it out as a list - is just window dressing.

    He says the Government's leveraging the fact the Prime Minister used to be a chief executive -- to make out he's running the country like a business.

    But she says many of the actions are things the Government was already going to do.
