Hon GRANT ROBERTSON (Minister of Finance): I want to emphasise that the best and first way to protect the economy is by containing the spread of the virus. The health of our people must remain our top priority. In response to the economic impact of the global COVID-19 outbreak, we have already provided support for the tourism and seafood industry, boosted funding for business advisory services, instructed Government departments to pay their bills within 10 days, and removed the stand-down period for workers who lose their jobs. Inland Revenue and the Ministry of Social Development (MSD) are supporting businesses and workers on issues like provisional tax readjustments, remission of late payment and filing fees, wage instalment plans, and income support, and MSD's rapid response teams are in place in regions like Tai Rāwhiti. Having already taken these initial actions, it is clear we will continue to see a longer lasting shock to the domestic economy, and that is why we are moving into the next phases of our economic response.
