But, as the Prime Minister's statement made clear, as well as continuing to deal with COVID, we as a Government must also continue to make progress on the long-term challenges that New Zealand as a nation faces. We must continue to address housing. We must continue to address child poverty, mental health, and climate change. We are continuing to make pragmatic progress on the transition to a low-carbon and low-emissions economy. To reduce waste, to take mental health seriously, and to improve New Zealand's biodiversity, we have a plan to keep us as a country moving forward, and central to that plan is securing our economic future. We have a plan to build a high-wage, low-carbon economy that provides security in the good times and in the bad times. It's focused on increasing the value of our exports, developing new and interesting skills within our workforce, new technology, modern infrastructure, and research and innovation to drive productivity, reduce emissions, and increase wages.
