The decision, according to Home Secretary Priti Patel, “will provide even more young Britons and New Zealanders with the opportunity to improve their talents, forge lifelong friendships, and contribute to their host country.”

Working holiday visa reform has long been a priority for New Zealand, according to Ms. Ardern, who is in London to meet with Mr. Johnson.

Prior to joining politics, the leader of the New Zealand Labour Party resided in London while serving as a senior policy consultant in Whitehall.

I enjoyed working and living in the UK, and I was one of many Kiwis who did. We hope to give British people the same excellent experience in New Zealand, she continued.

Following Thursday’s conclusion of the NATO meeting in Madrid, the prime ministers convened at Downing Street.

The free trade agreement reached last year and the response to the crisis in Ukraine, according to Ms. Ardern, will be topics of conversation.

Mr. Johnson commended New Zealand for its “quite strong line,” and Ms. Ardern added: “We have also supplied our military aid via our cooperation with you.”

The Home Office indicated that more details regarding the Youth Mobility and Working Holiday programme will be released the following year.
