New Zealand First has confirmed it's not putting out a fiscal plan this election that would detail funding for its promises. 

The plans also allocate extra spending during the term. 

So far, they've been released by Labour, National, and ACT.  

Costly NZ First policies this election include buying the Bank of New Zealand. 

Winston Peters says that could cost as much as $15 billion, but he told Kerre Woodham Governing parties don't need to produce fiscal plans.   

He says the 2026 Budget is New Zealand First's fiscal plan. 

Peters also says people planning to stay here long-term should sign up to being a New Zealander.  

A resident who arrived here as a two-year-old has asked the NZ First Leader why it would make her a more loyal Kiwi to officially become a citizen after 65-years. 

She says she never needed to officially apply for citizenship, but Peters told her he'd have expected her to sign up years ago. 

He says the least we can expect is people to sign up to our country, sign up to our flag, and make this the country of their future.
