Rt Hon JACINDA ARDERN (Prime Minister): As I've already told the House, I stand by the full interview where I acknowledged the impact high inflation driven by significant increases in global energy prices and supply chain issues is having on New Zealand families. My full quote also set out some of the changes this Government has made to increase the incomes of New Zealand families—changes I note he also opposed. There is no doubt that globally we are seeing the impact of increased demand and supply constraints as a result of the global COVID-19 recovery but I stand by our response to this and our COVID-19 plan itself. I note the member disagrees, having published a newsletter on 7 March stating, "Were the lives saved from COVID-19 worth shutting down the country? … Had we known all of this from the start would we have made different choices?". I for one would have not.
