Over the weekend, we agreed to a number of strong actions that will help to keep the number of people in New Zealand with COVID-19 as low as possible. These decisions will give us the time that we need so that no matter what happens, we are ready. What the Minister of Finance has announced today is a comprehensive and compassionate approach to managing the impact that COVID-19 could have on our daily lives. It's a package of measures designed to help us manage the crisis in a way that makes sense to people and their families, ensuring that whatever happens, people can continue to support their families, pay their bills and put money back into their local businesses and into their communities. It was clear from the Minister of Finance's speech that what he was saying boils down to this: none of us are alone in this. We are all in this together.
