Hon GRANT ROBERTSON: We're seeing positive signs about how robust the New Zealand economy has been through, for example, the wage subsidy. The wage subsidy extension began ending on 5 August. Between 5 August and 21 August, the majority of wage subsidy extension recipients completed their eight weeks of support. This represented 93,643 businesses, covering 325,426 jobs. On Friday, the Ministry of Social Development released the COVID income payment and jobseeker data covering that same period. Between 31 July and 21 August, jobseeker recipient numbers rose by 3,007, and COVID income relief payment recipients rose by 3,096. So with 325,426 jobs coming off the wage subsidy between 5 August and 21 August, only 6,103 went on to Government assistance over that same time. It is a tough time for those people who have lost their jobs, but the numbers bear out the importance of the investments that we have made to support households and businesses through the wage subsidy scheme.
