More funding needed to match uptick in refugee numbers

As part of RNZ's "Is this the Brighter Future" our politcal reporter Mei Heron has been speaking to refugees who came to New Zealand in 2008. They've told her the uptick in numbers hasn't come with much needed extra support - and many are barely getting by.
