Nicola Willis is expected to reveal more details about the Government's fiscal situation today, as she continues preparations for May's budget. 

The Finance Minister will be speaking to business lunch event in Auckland. 

Willis told Mike Hosking that since economic growth forecasts have been getting worse, the two options are to get down in the dumps about it, or they can say ‘what can we do about it?’.
