- Description
Text at the top of the frame reads 'The government's Savings Work Group releases its final report'. With only its long beak above water a kiwi has one of its legs trapped in the slot of a savings box that has printed on it the words 'NZ debt - 85% of GDP'; the kiwi thinks 'SAVING? Now there's a thought'. Context - 'The final report again [from the Savings Work Group] contains stern warnings that New Zealand's indebtedness to the rest of the world - currently at 85 per cent of gross domestic product (GDP) - places the country at dire risk of a Greek or Irish-style financial crisis.' 'Overall there needs to be a much more strategic approach to economic policy and policy generally, and less orientation to short-term political objectives.' 'The group recommended increasing membership of the savings scheme but said it should not be made compulsory, "at this time".' (by Adam Bennett in NZH 1 February 2011)
