Robertson said New Zealand's balance sheet remains robust and that net debt will peak at the above level. He explained that the coronavirus pandemic is a "one-in-100-year" shock to the global economy where all governments are grappling with finding ways to financially support their people and businesses.

"But like all governments, I have to balance that with making sure we continue to invest in our public services and health and education, which is what we need particularly in a time like this.
