Stuart Nash: Former Tourism Minister on the increasing of the international visitor levy
The Mike Hosking Breakfast - Un pódcast de Newstalk ZB - Miercoles
The government appears to have found an unlikely ally in former Tourism Minister Stuart Nash. It's increasing the International Visitor Conservation and Tourism Levy from $35 to $100 next month, an increase of nearly 200%. Nash wanted to bring the levy up by as much as $200 back in 2022. He told Mike Hosking that anyone saying these fees will deter visitors is wrong. Nash says they're dreaming if they think an extra $65 US will be the difference between coming here or another country. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
