Avsnitt Paul Spoonley: Massey University Sociologist says NZ First's policy won't tackle falling birth rates The Mike Hosking Breakfast Spela Dela
A sociologist believes New Zealand First's latest policy won't tackle falling birth rates. The party's announced a Kiwi Kids Fund, which would give citizen families $5000 a year for the first three years of a child's life. The grant would be limited to a family's first three children and would be tax free and not means tested. Massey University's Paul Spoonley says fertility rates are low, but this won't fix that. He says it's a concern, but the Government doesn't have the ability to change that. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information. Rss Apple Podcaster →
