The Prime Minister says the Government's still looking into how to get more fuel into the country.

It's put 20-million dollars towards an extra diesel storage tank at Marsden Point, south of Whangārei.

Chris Luxon says it will be built and completed in seven weeks.

He says told Mike Hosking they're considering offers for extra diesel, to fill the new tank.

Luxon says there are currently high levels of fuel in the country - about 53 to 63 days of each different fuel type.

But he says they want to additional diesel supply above and beyond that.
