"New Zealand should be one of the developed countries that’s a leader in terms of getting that [adaptation] fund going. It should be a leader in terms of not just raiding its aid budget for those funds but coming up with new money for that purpose" said environment spokesperson for the opposition New Zealand Labour Party, and a member of the party’s Pacific caucus, Charles Chauvel, in a report by Radio New Zealand International.
