The Finance Minister made it clear she was unimpressed with the way the RBNZ handled public communication around Adrian Orr’s departure.

Reserve Bank board chair Neil Quigley recently revealed he 'regretted' the time it took to release information around Orr's surprise resignation.

Nicola Willis says the central bank could have provided some clarifying statements more promptly than they did.

"As soon as they'd worked through what they could say with the former governor, there was obviously significant public interest in that information. And it would have been in everybody's best interests for them to share that at an earlier junction."
