New Zealand First says the new Regional Infrastructure Fund won't be a slush fund.
National was critical of the similar Provincial Growth Fund under the previous government, with Deputy Leader Nicola Willis saying it was like spraying a money hose around.
New Zealand First MP Shane Jones told Mike Hosking the new 1.2 billion dollar fund will be controlled.
He says it will have specific criteria to improve resilience in the regions.
