Chris Luxon: Prime Minister says his State of the Nation speech will focus on his plan for the country's future

The Prime Minister says his State of the Nation speech will focus on his plan for setting up the country's future 

Chris Luxon is set to make the address at the International Convention Centre in Auckland this afternoon. 

Newstalk ZB understands he will try to draw attention away from turbulent affairs overseas - and to the Government's successes back home. 

Luxon told Mike Hosking that he won't be announcing policy - but will reveal a framework for going forward. 

He says the speech is a chance to lay out where we're at,  and what's going on. 

Chris Luxon says he will announce an election day shortly.
