Why trust them now?

This National-led coalition came to power promising to slash bureaucrats and savage red tape. Since then, the numbers in the coercive sector have declined only slightly (around 2,000-3,000 trough dwellers), and are still well above 2017/2020 levels. The ACT Party, of whom the leader is now Deputy Prime-Minister, went to the election specifically promising massive regulatory reform, and had that written into their coalition agreement. 

On Wednesday, the ACT Party posted a pictorial illustrating how over-regulated we are.  To which the redoubtable Michael Reddell asked the obvious question: 

How many regulatory bodies have been closed down, or substantially hacked back, in the first 2.5 years of this government?

No answer. So he asked again:

How many of the 267+ regulators had been abolished or substantially hacked back under the current govt, 2.5yrs in?

He's still asking.

So here's a question for you: what value is a government who promises to do this term what they promised to do last term, but didn't.

Would that meet the definition of "trustworthy"?
