The Workplace Relations Minister says they want to ensure employment law is as flexible as possible.  

The new government is extending 90-day work trials to all employers, which were previously restricted to small businesses.  

A bill to make the change will be passed under urgency by Christmas.  

Fair Pay agreement legislation has also been repealed.  

Workplace Relations Minister Brooke van Velden told Mike Hosking that the government's delivering what New Zealanders voted for.

Van Velden says they want to send a clear signal this government backs business.
