NZ should work toward pay parity in sports - Robertson

From Morning Report, 7:09 am on 15 November 2022

Deputy Prime Minister and Sports Minister, Grant Robertson, says New Zealand should be working towards pay parity across all sports.

He made the comments during his post-Cabinet media conference yesterday afternoon, following the Black Ferns' Rugby World Cup triumph.

One of the arguments against pay parity has been the commercial value of the teams - and Robertson says the World Cup showed it is clear there is an extraordinary brand value the Black Ferns.

Robertson spoke to Corin Dann.
