New Zealand students have welcomed the allowance policy by 2012. Labour leader Helen Clark pledged to remove income test of parents in the Otago University. 1000 students want to talk to her after her flight was delayed. The news of allowance made students thrilled as they have no longer borrow money from others to live. This was the time when people are suffering from shortage of all facilities like nursing, teaching and medication etc.
Along with the allowance facility, the leader also made students conscious about the premium given by them to continue the policy. The students need to pay the overdue after getting job. They also want to check and maintain details of allowance provided by the society.
