Nicola Willis: Finance Minister on the savings from the public sector job cuts

The Finance Minister says they've over-delivered on their promise to save money from public sector job cuts.  Latest Public Service Commission data shows the core workforce decreased 4% in the year to December 2024.  Public Service Minister Judith Collins says the Government's expecting to save $800 million by June – double the initial target.  Nicola Willis —the coalition government's initial Public Service Minister— told Mike Hosking the money saved is going into much better purposes.  She says it’s instead going into things like the Family Boost Policy, to support early childhood education costs.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
