Restrictions on innovation are being seen as a form of self-sabotage.  

ACT wants to introduce innovation trials – letting government ministers pause existing regulations if they block tests of new technology.  

Leader David Seymour told innovators the country punches above its weight when we back ourselves, but someone needs to build the framework to make it happen.  

New Zealand Initiative Chief Economist Dr Eric Crampton told Mike Hosking it's something New Zealand should be progressing with. 

He says we are too small to be stupid in this space, and need to enable innovation in new ways.

The country's economic recovery may be coming. 

New Infometrics forecasts show annual economic growth is set to reach a four-year high of 2.7% mid-next year. 

They show the chances of yearly inflation continuing above 2% by then have dropped. 

Chief Forecaster Gareth Kiernan told Mike Hosking that as long as fuel prices stay at manageable levels, they expect to see positive indicators return over the next six to twelve months. 

He says we’re nearing the point where we’re growing as fast as we can without generating inflation, and they do see a case for rates increases, but nothing as fast as they were previously looking at when fuel prices where over $3 a litre.
