    Minister of Finance unwraps her first 2024 Budget

    Electra Business Breakfast – B2B networking – Sponsored by Electra

    Nau mai haere mai Electra Business Breakfast is pleased to be welcoming the Minister of Finance, Hon Nicola Willis hot on the heels of delivering her first budget on Thursday 30th May.  She has been quoted as saying, “the Budget will deliver urgently needed tax relief to hard-working New Zealanders while putting the government’s finances back on a sustainable track.”

    The key priorities for Budget 2024 are to:

    • Deliver meaningful tax reductions to provide cost of living relief to New Zealanders who have seen no change in personal income tax rates and thresholds since 2010.
    • Identify enduring savings across government departments and agencies.
    • Improve public services by focusing new spending on priority areas including health, education and law and order.
    • Keep tight control of government spending while funding a limited number of high-priority Government policy commitments and urgent cost pressures that cannot be funded through reprioritisation; and
    • Develop a long-term, sustainable pipeline of infrastructure investments.

    There’s a lot to unpack here, so start thinking about your questions now for Minister Willis as she will take questions at the end of her address.  This Breakfast will be held in the Southward Theatre as it is likely to draw a big crowd.

    See you there! Book early to avoid disappointment.

    WELLNESS UPDATE

    Please don’t attend if you are feeling unwell.  We look forward to seeing you all soon.
