Q+A SUNDAY OCTOBER 12TH, 2026

Jack Tame asked the two Financial Spokespersons (Edmonds/Willis). Will you commit to a political accord assessment of NZ Retirement Income, next term?

Willis says yes, but! only if Labour agrees NZ Super not financially sustainable.

Edmonds calls her bluff, saying the Review must be of the Retirement System as a Whole (all components)

Tame intercedes saying it must be the whole Retirement Income package components (Whole of Policy).

Both agree.

*Editor comment

Willis obviously uncomfortable, knowing Nationals Track record  is one of doing its own thing  with retirement income policy following doctrine/dogma , rather than evidence!
