    The Finance Minister claims New Zealanders want to see the Government focusing on the economy


    The latest 1News Verian poll reveals National and Labour are holding steady - on a respective 37- and 29-percent

    Meanwhile - Te Pati Maori has surged three-percent to seven-percent - its highest record to date

    Nicola Willis says while the Treaty Principles Bill has caused a shift - the economy's still weighing on people's minds.

    She says jobs, incomes and the cost of living are key issues - as well as education, law and order and health services.
