Sue Chetwin: Grocery Action Group Chair on NZ Initiative's plan to add competition to the grocery sector
from Early Edition with Ryan Bridge · host Newstalk ZB
The Grocery Action Group is unconvinced by a proposal to rapidly add competition to the grocery sector. The New Zealand Initiative wants the Government to introduce a "fast track pathway" to allow new entrants to enter the market, rather than forcing any break-up of the existing supermarket companies. It includes streamlining rezoning, consenting and investment clearance processes. The group's Sue Chetwin told Ryan Bridge it's more of a nice to have. She says to get more competitors, the government will need to force existing supermarkets to give up some of their stores. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
