With over $23 billion in support, the coalition Government has launched the most significant peacetime economic plan in modern New Zealand history to cushion the impact of COVID-19 in the fight to support Kiwis' jobs and the domestic economy from the virus. The Government is united in doing everything we can to support New Zealand workers and businesses. We need our businesses to stay solvent to help with the economic recovery as we emerge from this health crisis.
