TL;DR: National Finance Spokesperson Nicola Willis has signalled a National Government would produce a lower debt track than Labour, but has yet to say what it is forecasting or how it would pay for infrastructure investment necessary for ongoing population growth of 2%.Willis told reporters in a standup yesterday after a speech to a KangaNews conference for bond investors and traders in Auckland that a fiscal plan would be due within a couple of weeks. Have a listen to my questions and Willis’ answers above from that news conference. The transcript is above too. I have opened this up for all, given Willis may be the Finance Minister within 31 days.
