The Huddle: Did the OCR need to go up after all?

from Heather du Plessis-Allan Drive · host Newstalk ZB

Tonight on The Huddle, Phil O'Reilly from Iron Duke Partners and NZ Herald senior correspondent Katie Bradford joined in on a discussion about the following issues of the day - and more! The Reserve Bank increased the OCR, for the first time in 3 years. Do we think this was the right call? Do we think this is good news for the state of the economy? Both Labour and National have announced new solar-based policies. Do we think these can work? What did we make of the rollout? What did we think of ACT's idea of a minimum three-year sentence for repeat burglars? Will this help?  LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
