    Chris Luxon admits many Kiwis still haven't felt the economy turn a corner

    Chris Luxon admits many Kiwis still haven't felt the economy turn a corner


    GDP data - due out later this month - is expected to show the economy's started growing again in the September quarter.

    But, while interest rates are falling, unemployment and inflation remain relatively high.

    The Prime Minister says many people have been seeing things improve under his Government, particularly in the South Island.

    He says it's taking longer for the economic turn-around to benefit other people.
