NZ can't sustain pre-pandemic immigration levels - Productivity Commission

From Morning Report, 8:21 am on 8 November 2021

A new report says that Aotearoa can't sustain pre-Covid-19 rates of immigration because we don't have the housing and other infrastructure to properly support and settle new migrants.

The Productivity Commission has just released the early findings from its inquiry into immigration, which includes a call for the Government to engage with Māori. 

Commission chair Ganesh Nana spoke to Corin Dann.
