Fuel stocks fall again, one shipment delayed but 'no risk' says Prime Minister
Prime Minister Christopher Luxon says New Zealand has "no risk of disruption to our future fuel supply" despite a second consecutive drop in stocks and the first reported delay of a shipment at an overseas loading hub.
Officials warned today that maritime delays are likely to become more frequent after revealing that one shipment had been held up in Singapore.
Labour leader Chris Hipkins described the figures as alarming, saying there was now less than three weeks of in-country diesel, accusing the Government of being unprepared and "asleep at the wheel".
But Luxon remains confident in his plans.

ONE SPAT BETWEEN PRESIDENT AND POPE
Pope Leo XIV, a studious and soft-spoken cleric, and Donald Trump, an unapologetically bellicose and pugilistic politician, have long been on a rhetorical collision course.
Now their disagreement over the war in Iran has escalated, and their comments show how differently each see the conflict and its impact.
Trump said Leo was “Weak” and captive to the “Radical Left,” even suggesting that Leo somehow owed his position to Trump.
