from Best of Business · host Newstalk ZB
New emails show the Health Ministry asked Rapid Antigen Test suppliers to prioritise its orders over those of private businesses. On January 22, staff flagged concerns they only had information on five percent of their January and February orders - just two percent were confirmed for delivery. By month's end, businesses began reporting their orders were cancelled - because the Government had taken their stock. Businessman Sir Ian Taylor told Mike Hosking these emails show a sense of panic. He says it's the result of the Government realising after two years of banning RATS, they needed them. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
