A welcome reassurance from the Government --- that it's working to gradually ease border restrictions

Finance Minister Grant Robertson has told members of the Trans-Tasman Business Circle that businesses won't be able to continue to rely on low-skilled migrant workers.
But he's also revealed work is underway to allow more workers in, and open travel bubbles with other countries.
Business Circle General Manager Sharron Lloyd says businesses are frustrated with the skills shortage, but are glad to see Robertson acknowledge their concerns.
She says it's reassuring to have the conversation, even if they know nothing will be the same again.
