For over 60 years, the New Zealand government has owned the national lottery in one form or another.
But it could now be sold, at least in part, to a private company.
According to reports, National is exploring the possibility but is likely to face pushback from its coalition partner, NZ First.
Newsroom.co.nz National Affairs editor Sam Sachdeva has been reporting on the potential sale and speaks to Emile Donovan.
