Hon GRANT ROBERTSON (Minister of Finance): Today, I announced the Government's $12.1 billion economic response package aimed at supporting cash flow and confidence in the economy. This represents around 4 percent of New Zealand's GDP and is larger on a GDP basis than Australia, the UK, Singapore, or Ireland. It also comes on top of the $12 billion New Zealand Upgrade Programme announced earlier in the year. The intent of the package announced today is to fight the virus and smooth the curve, cushion the blow on businesses and workers, and position the economy for recovery. It represents the first stage of Government support to New Zealand businesses and workers, and Budget 2020 will be re-orientated to be a recovery Budget. We are taking bold and decisive actions to respond to uncertain and unprecedented times. There are tough days ahead, but we will get through this together.
