- Description
Around a table sit Minister for Energy and Economic Development Gerry Brownlee, Minister of Foreign Affairs Murray McCully, PM John Key and Finance Minister Bill English; Gerry Brownlee says that tourism now earns more than farming, Murray McCully argues that 'we are still dependent on wool' and John Key laughs and says that 'we can't pull tourism over peoples' eyes'. Context - Tourism outstrips farming as top export earner. Figures released by Statistics NZ show international tourists spent $9.5 billion while visiting New Zealand for the year ending March 2010. Tourism exports contribute more than $560 million more than dairy exports - worth $8.9 billion over the same period, down from $9.9 billion the previous year. (ODT Hamish McNeilly 18 November 2010)
