Now, the Government knows that it must balance the immediate needs of our people with long-term needs to refashion a vibrant future economy. When this lockdown started, New Zealand First knew that the country faced a massive economic downturn. We also knew that the Government would need to intervene to keep business running and people employed. We might not always get everything perfect, but the coalition is willing to try anything and do everything to help business survive and save jobs by providing a cushion as the country transitions to a new equilibrium. This year's Budget is about recovery, and the Government is certainly using its balance sheet to assist the post-lockdown economic phase of our response.
