Hon GRANT ROBERTSON: Good Government spending—targeted Government spending—will achieve good outcomes for New Zealanders. On this side of the House, we have adopted a balanced approach throughout all of the time that we've been in office. In every single Budget—including Budgets under the previous Government—Ministers come forward with more Budget bids than there is money available, and prioritisation decisions had to be made; difficult prioritisation decisions. I'd also note that it is the National Party's policy to spend exactly the same amount as the Government would in this Budget.
