The Government has announced new restrictions for beneficiaries.

Prime Minister Christopher Luxon and Social Development Minister Louise Upston this week announced a new traffic light system, that comes with harsher penalties for those who don’t meet their obligations to attend meetings and look for work.

But what exactly do those sanctions mean, and why is National making this a priority now?

Today on The Front Page, NZ Herald political journalist Julia Gabel joins us to explain this new traffic light system.
