26 March 2026 – Due to strong interest from the public and key stakeholders, the Reserve Bank of New Zealand, Te Pūtea Matua has extended the closing date for responses to our Keeping Cash Local consultation.
The new closing date will be 31 July 2026.
The RBNZ has received requests for more information on the consultation, including requests under the Official Information Act. We will publish further material to support the consultation, including responses to OIA requests in early June.
Additionally, alternate formats of the consultation document – in NZSL, braille, easy read, audio and large print – will be made available in May to allow disabled people and their communities to have their say.
