  • RBNZ Gov Orr's veiled calls for help from fiscal authorities in his fight against growing prices have been picked up by opposition lawmakers who blamed the government for fuelling inflation. FinMin Robertson pledged cautious spending but did not make any specific commitments, sticking to his "balanced" approach to public expenditures.
