Lecture Theme
Mr Robertson is expected to cover a number of issues in his Lecture including the government’s fiscal policy, Wellbeing Budget, the need to invest in areas which he believes needs special and immediate attention, and how Good Financial Management contributes to Good Governance.
Presenting his Budget (2019-2010) in Parliament on May 30, 2019, he said, “We begin, through this Budget, to value and to measure all that makes life worthwhile in New Zealand.”
Do you agree? You can raise a point or two during the Question & Answer Session.
Born in Palmerston North, Mr Robertson graduated (Bachelor of Arts) with Honours from the University of Otago in 1995. He has had impressive assignments in Samoa, United Nations New York and as an Advisor to Prime Minister Helen Clark in Wellington, before he decided to contest for a Parliamentary seat in the November 2008 general election. Since then, his constituents have returned him to Parliament in four successive polls.
He is a master in financial management and fiscal policy.
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.
Speakers this year
This year’s Lecture will feature Auckland Mayor Phil Goff as the Master of Ceremonies, with Member of Parliament (National) Paul Goldsmith providing his critique under ‘Reflections on the Lecture,’ and former Member of Parliament Dr Rajen Prasad offering the Concluding Remarks.
We look forward to hearing from you.
