    The Government's confident the economy will reap the benefits of a change to visitor visas

    The Government's confident the economy will reap the benefits of a change to visitor visas


    From today, travellers wanting to work remotely for an overseas company can do so while visiting New Zealand.

    The Government's splashing out on an advertising campaign, convinced it'll pay off.

    Economic Growth Minister Nicola Willis admits people could try to bend the rules.

    She says the benefits of making New Zealand more attractive outweighs the risks.
