The National Business Review is reporting a story about extending working holidays in the UK for Kiwis.

From next month young New Zealanders heading to Britain will be able to work there for two years, Prime Minister Helen Clark announced today.

At present they can go to the United Kingdom for two years under a Working Holiday Visa which allows them to work for one year of their stay.

From November 27 there will be a new visa category under the Youth Mobility Scheme allowing them to work for the whole of the two-year period.
