Nicola Willis is expected to reveal more details about the Government's fiscal situation today, as she continues preparations for May's budget.

The Finance Minister will be speaking to business lunch event in Auckland.

Willis told Mike Hosking that since economic growth forecasts have been getting worse, the two options are to get down in the dumps about it, or they can say ‘what can we do about it?’.

She said that while the Government does have a big role to play, they need businesses right alongside them, feeling confident about investing and doing new things.

They’re asking businesses to work together with them to get the country moving again.
