Lecture Theme
Mr Robertson is expected to cover a number of issues in his Lecture including the need to invest in areas which he believes needs special and immediate attention, and how Good Financial Management contributes to Good Governance.
The theme of the Lecture would be ‘Good Financial Management contributes to Good Governance,’ with accountability and transparency at the core.
National Party Finance Spokesperson Paul Goldsmith will comment upon the speech under ‘Reflections,’ and offer his own perspective of the economy and his vision for growth.
Mr Goldsmith is a strong advocate of promoting small businesses which account for a majority of New Zealand commercial sector. He is likely to outline his plans for stimulating investment, increasing productivity and achieve surplus.
The Lecture would therefore one of a kind.
About INL Lecture Series
As a newspaper committed to promoting finer aspects of Community, Corporate, Economic and Social conduct, Indian Newslink instituted the Lecture to be held as an annual series, principally in Auckland City.
The Indian Newslink Sir Anand Satyanand Lecture was held from 2011 and 2018 as a mark of respect and tribute to Rt Hon Anand Satyanand, who retired as the Governor General of New Zealand after five years in office on August 23, 2011.
The Lecture series subscribes to the broad theme of Good Governance, with Honesty, Integrity, Accountability and Transparency as its core principles.
The Lecture Series has been rebranded this year but would continue to feature topics of interest to those in governance roles, management professionals and those on the growth path of their career.
Ministers, Members of Parliament, decision makers, corporate and community leaders including Government officials attend the Lecture to carry its benefits to their professional lives.
This Project is non-political and non-commercial, intended to bring the best of the intellect available to speak at the annual event. We are hopeful that it would grow and progress as an Institution that befits the name with which it is associated.
Auckland Mayor Phil Goff
This year’s Lecture will feature Auckland Mayor Phil Goff as the Master of Ceremonies, with Member of Parliament (Labour) and Parliamentary Private Secretary for Ethnic Affairs delivering the Welcome Address and former Member of Parliament Dr Rajen Prasad offering the Concluding Remarks.
We look forward to hearing from you.
