National questions Grant Robertson over tax comments

  • 25/10/2022

National's finance spokesperson Nicola Willis has questioned Finance Minister Grant Robertson over comments he made on AM about tax.

Robertson was asked earlier on Tuesday about wage growth leading to more people being in higher tax brackets.

"Every government would want to be able to adjust those tax brackets and make sure that people do keep more of that money in their take-home pay," Robertson told AM.

"[But] we have to balance that against all of the needs we've got in delivering the health system… delivering education, building houses, making sure that we provide all the public services people rely on."
