New Zealand First—one of three parties in New Zealand’s coalition government—has introduced a bill that will prohibit businesses from refusing cash payments for goods and services worth less than $500 (US$301).

“The bill will provide for the enduring use of cash as a private, accessible, and reliable method of payment,” Party Leader Winston Peters said.
