Help young people study without creating themselves huge dept which puts them off, they are the future tax payers

Only the last year of your degree or qualification should be free
Pay the 2nd year after student has passed the first year and are more committed and have experienced a year paying their own way as they have to now after the first year

No, but free for jobs where we have a deficit and need more people in those jobs

Yes, but only final year of study
Tertiary Education for those wanting to become medical professionals/teachers should be treated as apprenticeships - so students are still able to gain an income while studying
if someone qualifies as a doctor or nurse, wipe their fess if they stay in NZ for 3 years
Free final year, not first year.
