Excitement from businesses, as the prospects grow for a transtasman bubble

An Australian taskforce has unveiled plans to allow Kiwis into Australia by November -- on a state by state basis.

Jacinda Ardern says it may take longer for New Zealand to allow Australians here.

But Trans-Tasman Business Circle general manager, Sharron Lloyd, says many businesses will benefit once a safe bubble's in place.

She says New Zealand and Australia are two of the most integrated economies in the world, particularly between us and New South Wales.
