Grant Robertson talks to Kathryn Ryan about his unprecedented $12-point-one billion dollar stimulus package. It includes wage subsidies of $5.1 billion, which for employers means $585 a week for full time staff, and $350 a week for part time staff capped at $150,000 per business, $126million for self-isolation support, $500 million for health and a bump in benefits.
