PM's statements to media at post-Cabinet briefing

Prince William is scheduled to visit New Zealand and Australia next week to tour areas that were devastated by the recent natural disasters, St James's Palace had stated.

The prince will go to Christchurch, New Zealand, where over 160 people had tragically died in an earthquake last month.

He will also be going to Greymouth, near the site of the Pike River of the mine disaster in New Zealand in which 29 people had died.

William will then travel towards Australia, where he will visit areas that were hit by flooding in Queensland and Victoria.
