James Shaw, co-leader of the Green Party, expresses shock after a Pasifika overstayer gets arrested in a dawn raid in south Auckland.

According to news reports, both the Greens and the National party have different stances on visa overstayers. The Greens recognize the contributions made by them to New Zealand and have proposed amnesty for overstayers while the National party believes that deportation remains an option for those not complying with visa rules. As of March, there are approximately 14,000 overstayers in New Zealand. For temporary visa holders in New Zealand, it is essential to follow visa regulations, or they may risk deportation.
