39043 (2024). Hon Carmel Sepuloni to the Minister for Social Development and Employment: Did the Minister seek advice on how the personal income tax threshold changes made as part of Budget 2024 would impact beneficiaries, if not, why not?

Hon Louise Upston: Corrected reply: No, because Budget 2024 changes did not impact net benefit payment rates. As Minister for Social Development and Employment, I am not responsible for end-of-year tax refunds.
