The Opportunity Party has laid out some of its key priorities ahead of Election 2026, putting health, supermarket competition and political lobbying at the centre of its pitch to voters.
The party has identified a series of policy areas it wants addressed as part of any negotiations following the election, including changes aimed at improving the health system and tackling the cost pressures facing New Zealand households.
Supermarket competition is also firmly on the agenda, with the party targeting the structure of the grocery sector as families continue to grapple with the cost of putting food on the table.
Political transparency is another focus, with lobbying and the relationship between political decision-makers and outside interests among the issues the party wants greater scrutiny placed on.
The announcement comes as smaller parties set out the policies they would prioritise in a potentially closely contested election, sharpening the focus on what they could seek from larger parties during any post-election negotiations.
