Rt Hon JACINDA ARDERN: Our focus has to be on supporting businesses who are directly affected. That is why we are developing a targeted response through things like wage subsidies rather than what the BNZ has said: not putting in place a blanket response. The lowest-paid workers should not have to pay for the impacts of COVID-19—first point. Second point: actually, the group that pays the minimum wage the most are our large employers, not our small ones. Third point: the minimum wage has a stimulatory effect. The more the low-income workers have in their pockets, the more they spend, which is exactly what the economy needs. And fourth point: that Opposition has said we need to support workers and their families; cutting their wages is not the way to do that.
