Steven Joyce: Former Finance Minister says the economy is going through a rough patch, going to take a while to turn around

But in reality, the latest 0.1 percent drop in GDP could be revised up, meaning the recession never happened.
Former Finance Minister Steven Joyce told Mike Hosking what is certain, is the economy is going through a rough patch that's going to take a while to turn around.
