Luxon joined AM on Tuesday morning for his weekly interview and defended his Government's approach to police. The Prime Minister disagreed and claimed the offer is not the same as the previous offer. "It's not appropriate as Prime Minister that I am in the middle of all that. "I disagree, there is an enhanced offer that has been put together by the police, again it's an issue for them to work through with the police association," Luxon replied. "All I'm responsible for is making sure those negotiations take place in good faith and importantly we back our police with giving them stronger tools."
