Deputy Prime Minister Paula Bennett backs Coastal Pacific TrailSCOTT HAMMOND/STUFF Deputy Prime Minister Paula Bennett at Thomas's Department Store cafe, in Blenheim. A proposal for a combined walking and cycling trail down the east coast has another high-profile backer in the form of Deputy Prime Minister Paula Bennett. "But I equally think it's going to be close - it's a two horse race. The Tourism Minister met with a group of Marlborough tourism operators during her visit to Blenheim, as well as paying a visit to Marlborough Boys' College and a rest home. Bill English is going to be Prime Minister in 11 days' time".
