The Finance Minister's earned fresh ire from the Opposition for his comments about capping rent rises.
Grant Robertson has not ruled out limiting how much landlords can raise rents, saying it isn't on the Government's agenda, but they'll keep an eye on what happens.

"The fact is he doesn't understand what happens when he causes such immense uncertainty for people who are property investors or who have bought one or two houses than they rent out."
