RSE workers are coming back to New Zealand, but not until the new year.

Growers will be able to bring the workers to NZ in January, provided they pay a living wage and the cost of managed isolation.

Paul Paynter, the General Manager at Yummy Apples in the Hawkes Bay along with Stephen Darling, the head of Darling Fruits in Central Otago and Michael Franks, the Chief Executive of Kiwifruit company, Seeka, speak to Susie Ferguson.
