- Description
Prime Minister John Key reads a newspaper that has the headline 'Govt must show more restraint - Reserve Bank'. He comments to Finance Minister Bill English that 'Anyone listening to Bollard would think we're addicted to spending' and English replies 'I'll buy that!' 'Reserve Bank Governor Alan Bollard singled out tax reform as a way to increase the effectiveness on monetary policy over the economic cycle while encouraging savings rather than property investment. "The current system exacerbates the economic cycle through its impact on saving and investment, particularly the way it encourages demand for housing", Bollard said in the December Monetary Policy Statement. Options include "removing or offsetting the current favourable treatment of property and housing".' (attrib. Scoop)
