Hon GRANT ROBERTSON (Minister of Finance): This cuts to what I think is the heart of perhaps what's now emerging as a difference of opinion between the Government and the Opposition, which is that the operation of monetary policy does need to be independent, and I think New Zealand has had enough of a history to know the dangers of diverting from that level of independence. There will no doubt—as I've said on numerous occasions—be the opportunity that will come for an inquiry into the broader COVID response, both from the economic perspective but also from the health perspective as well, and the time will be right for that. The time is not right for that in the middle of while we are still dealing with a COVID outbreak in the middle of winter.
