Wellbeing Budget 2021- Securing Our Recovery
Minister of Finance Grant Robertson delivered his fourth Budget today – the first as a majority Government – and the themes reflect a
traditional Labour flavour.
Budget 2021 is still in the COVID-19 global pandemic shadow, but its focus shifts to secure New Zealand’s recovery from its impact. This
Budget is also delivered on the 30-year anniversary of New Zealand’s ‘Mother of All Budgets’ and the Government has been very deliberate in
ensuring the headline policy is a generous increase to benefits targeting families and children as they aim to lift more and more Kiwis out
of poverty.
