Hon GRANT ROBERTSON: The targeted COVID support payment has helped keep viable the vulnerable businesses through the peak of Omicron. As of June, this payment had paid out $1.3 billion to 112,877 applicants. On a regional basis, Auckland has received 50.5 percent of the payments, followed by Christchurch on 9.6 percent and Wellington on 8 percent. By industry, construction made up 15.2 percent of all payments, followed by accommodation on 14.8 percent, other services on 9.3 percent, and retail trade on 8 percent. This payment has provided cash flow and confidence to help protect jobs and support New Zealand businesses through a very difficult time. We stand by the decisions that the Government has made to support businesses and households to get through Omicron and give us the strong basis to move forward from now.
