Despite some less-than-ideal poll figures, Minister Nicola Willis doesn't believe Kiwis have lost faith in the Government.
The latest Taxpayers Union-Curia Poll has Labour on 34.1 percent, overtaking National on 33.6 percent.
Chris Hipkins is also ahead of Chris Luxon as preferred Prime Minister.
Nicola Willis says there's plenty of polls left between now and the 2026 election - and she's focused on results.
"My focus is never on a poll, it's always on how we can deliver for New Zealanders. And New Zealanders are letting us know loud and clear that they want us focused on reducing their cost of living, growing this economy, delivering better education and health services."
