Coronavirus: National Party wants clarity on trans-Tasman bubble

From Morning Report, 8:08 am on 5 May 2020

The opposition says the Prime Minister needs to come out of today's meeting with her Australian counter-parts with a clear signal of when a trans-Tasman bubble could get off the ground.

Jacinda Ardern will discuss the potential of quarantine-free travel when she dials into Australia's National Cabinet meeting today.

National Tourism spokesperson Todd McClay says opening the borders with Australia would provide some much needed light on the horizon for the sector.

He says Ardern needs to provide a clear timeline on when this could happen, so that airlines and tourism operators can start planning.

He speaks to Susie Ferguson.
