Kiwi Saver 七周年庆 ，未雨绸缪得人心

工党财政发言人David Parker
国民储蓄计划（Kiwi Saver）本周（7月1号）迎来了七周年庆，截至今天为止，全国共有230万人注册成为 KiwiSaver 成员，使这一计划成为全国最受欢迎的退休储蓄计划。
工党财政发言人David Parker 指出，KiwiSaver国民储蓄计划是工党执政期间极具前瞻性的一项政策。民众不会忘记的是工党政府当年推出该政策的时，作为反对党的国家党拼死反对。而现在国家党不得不违心支持，因为国家党不敢冒天下之大不韪。
在今天我们一起庆祝国民储蓄计划诞生七周年的时候，非常不幸的看到国家党又故伎重演，以编故事和吓唬人的办法来唱衰工党的资本利得税（CGT）及全民性质的国民储蓄计划（Kiwi Saver）。与国家党为了达到恐吓和唱衰为目的所编造的相反，工党的资本利得税不会提高源自国民储蓄计划和其他退休储蓄计划的资金税率。
事实是，真正提高了KiwiSaver税率并难辞其咎的是国家党自己。国家党将国民储蓄计划退税率减半并同时提高了雇主储蓄补贴部分的税率。
与国家党遮人耳目为目的小敲小打不一样，工党将在过去成功政策的基础上逐步的将雇主及雇员的储蓄额提升到9%。我们也将KiwiSaver成员的税率以及首付的政府补贴金，延展到所有的雇员并逐步引入全民共有的国民储蓄计划（Kiwi Saver）。
迄今为止，国家党所做的只是把过去一些的老政策重新加温并搬出来说是新的货色。
工党是一个不断革新的政党，只有这样的政党才能帮助新西兰人真正拥有更好更光明的未来。

Spokesperson for Finance
1 July 2014 MEDIA STATEMENT
KiwiSaver’s 7th birthday something to be proud of
“KiwiSaver celebrates its seventh birthday today with 2.3 million people now enrolled, making it the most popular retirement saving scheme in New Zealand history, Labour’s Finance spokesperson David Parker says.
“KiwiSaver is yet another forward-thinking Labour policy that National vociferously opposed at the time but now supports through gritted teeth.
“On a day when there’s something to celebrate it’s sad National has to resort to myth-making and scare tactics regarding Labour’s capital gains tax (CGT) and KiwiSaver.
“Labour’s CGT will not increase the level of taxation on incomes derived from KiwiSaver or other retirement savings schemes.
“In fact, it is National that is guilty of increasing taxes on KiwiSaver. It slashed the member tax credit in half and imposed a tax on employer contributions.
“Rather than petty tinkering, Labour will build on our past successes by incrementally upping employer and employee contributions to a total of 9 per cent. We will also extend the KiwiSaver member tax credit and KickStart payment to virtually all employees by introducing universal KiwiSaver.
“All National can do is reheat old policies and pretend they are new.
“Labour is the party of innovative and fresh ideas that will help all New Zealanders get ahead,” David Parker says.
