Minister Withholds Immigration Document | Wellington News

Immigration Minister Erica Stanford is refusing to release a confidential document that NZ First’s Winston Peters claims proves the government is secretly altering migration rules to favor Indian applicants—something Peters says could provoke India and has already read excerpts of in Parliament. Stanford insists the document’s secrecy is protected by constitutional conventions, arguing public interest doesn’t justify disclosure. Peters demands reporters obtain it, while Stanford stands firm. The dispute highlights deeper tensions over immigration policy and New Zealand’s ties with India, with Trade Minister Todd McClay calling Peters’ claims misinformation. Neither party will release the document, with Peters citing Cabinet rules and Stanford citing lack of public interest. RNZ has formally lodged a complaint with the ombudsman, arguing transparency is vital to dispel misinformation and uphold ministerial accountability.

Mortgage Stress? Not Yet, Experts Say | Wellington News

Despite falling house prices and rising interest rates, mortgage stress isn’t spreading — and here’s why: mortgagee sales are up slightly but still far below 2009 levels, thanks to steady incomes, tighter lending rules, and banks’ preference for working with borrowers over foreclosing. With non-performing loans at just 0.6% and lenders offering flexible repayment options, defaults remain low — as long as jobs stay stable, most homeowners are managing just fine.
