New Zealand Foreign Minister Murray McCully has stated that New Zealand’s aid should change from ‘poverty elimination’ to a broader focus on economic development.

McCully also wants New Zealand’s aid agency NZAID to lose its status as a semi-autonomous body. A website has been set up that question the Government’s motives. Green Party Overseas Development Assistance Spokesperson Dr Kennedy Graham says Murray McCully needs to tell the public just what will qualify as New Zealand Aid (NZAID) under his leadership.
