64% of New Zealanders support shops trading on Good Friday and Easter Sunday, per a Taxpayers' Union poll.
64% of New Zealanders support shops trading on Good Friday and Easter Sunday, according to a poll by the Taxpayers' Union. The poll shows broad support across all political parties. ACT MP Cameron Luxton's bill, set for its first reading in Parliament, aims to replace current complex trading policies with a principle of freedom to trade or not trade. Workers' rights to decline rostered hours on these days will be extended, making Good Friday and Easter Sunday the only days with explicit protections.
