Episode description

Labour's committing to further shake-ups within the supermarket sector in a bid to break up the grocery duopoly. 

While details are in the early stages, help with finances, gaining land space, and making regulator changes are on the cards. 

Labour Leader, Chris Hipkins, told Mike Hosking a new competitor won't enter the market without Government support. 

He doesn't believe it would be in the form of a grant, but rather a loan or financing for establishment. 

Hipkins says all options are on the table and bringing in an overseas chain like Aldi would be massive for the country.
