The weekend has come and gone, but coalition negotiations continue into another week.
Incoming Prime Minister Chris Luxon says about three issues to settle remain between National, Act and New Zealand First.
The trio's been meeting in Auckland since Wednesday, where Luxon now believes they'll stay for the next few days.
Herald Political Reporter Adam Pearse told Kate Hawkesby that Luxon described his meeting with Peters yesterday, as 'helpful'.
He says it was a departure from previous conversations in which he described talks as 'positive' and 'good' and cast a better light on things.
