Nicola Willis: Finance Minister on the Government promising to deliver tax relief in this year's Budget

The Finance Minister has promised Kiwis will benefit from meaningful tax cuts in this year's Budget. Nicola Willis gave a preview speech to the Hutt Valley Business Chamber this morning - and ruled out austerity, despite a challenging economy. Willis says she's made sure the cuts will be targeted at middle to lower income workers and families. "We've come up with what we think is responsible. As I outlined today - inflation has pushed New Zealanders into much higher tax brackets. That means, on average, people are paying a lot more tax."
