4305 (2025). Hon Barbara Edmonds to the Minister of Immigration: What evidence, if any, does the Minister have that making the Active Investor Plus visa more flexible will lead to better economic outcomes than the previous settings?

Hon Erica Stanford: I refer the member to my press release that outlines the failure of the AIP visa settings of the previous Government, compared to the success of the previous more flexible Investor 1 and 2 settings. https://www.beehive.govt.nz/release/going-growth-unlocking-investment-nz
