The Stay and Spend scheme was devised at a time when there appeared to be a steady downward trend in infection rates.  However, this did not continue and the necessary public health restrictions have unfortunately impacted on the operation of the scheme as originally envisaged.

I am advised by the Minister for Finance that the Stay and Spend scheme is due to operate until 30 April. The Minister has also advised that he will be monitoring the scheme and will consider if any changes need to be made.
