Show Notes

A former Customs Minister is cooling hopes of making trans-Tasman travel easier.

A taskforce is being set up by our government and Australia's, to look at ways to make travel more seamless.

Maurice Williamson told Kate Hawkesby he doesn't believe new efforts in the space will lead to much progress.

He says the speed you can travel between the two countries is quite fast now - and he doesn't believe we'll get to a point where travellers won't need passports.
