The Prime Minister has bowed to public pressure and set a one-off refugee quota increase. We will now take hundreds of Syrians over the next few years - is this enough and what does this really mean for New Zealand?

Over an hour Rachel Smalley will host a debate on the merits and pitfalls of raising the refugee quota with a panel of guests including David Shearer, Dame Susan Devoy, and Shamubeel Eaqub.

At the Herald Hall, 46 Albert Street. Debate from 12pm-1pm.
