As we move into alert level 2 and the recovery stage, our purpose is to see people back at work, to clear the pathway for communities and sectors most affected by COVID-19, and to lay the groundwork for our rebuild. The COVID-19 response and recovery fund, established through this Budget, will be used to support New Zealanders through each stage of the impact of the virus. It is designed to support not only our immediate response but also to provide support, as necessary, over the longer term to rebuild our economy and society.
