Do you want tax with that? The Government's KiwiSaver U-turn
Listen now
Description
While the Government made a swift U-turn on a proposal to tax fees on KiwiSaver funds, questions remain over what impact the plan, and the snap backdown, could have politically.The proposal would have forced managed funds and KiwiSaver providers to pay a flat 15 per cent GST on fees. Today on the Herald's youth podcast, In the loop, journalists Cheree Kinnear and Katie Harris  discuss how the proposal was revealed, the reaction and just how quickly it fell. Later on the show Cheree and Katie speak about the ruling in the Lynette Dawson murder case and Marama Davidson getting into hot water over a social media post.  Follow us on instagram at itlpod :)   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
