Date:

Share post:

DON’T BRING any new tax measures – the economic conditions are just not there to absorb new taxes.

Trim Government spending, improve the efficiency of state agencies to cut out expensive duplication of services and restructure the national debt to give you some breathing space with payments.

And please bring the Budget earlier!

These are some of the suggestions which economist Ryan Straughn has for Government as individuals and businesses await delivery of the 2015 national Budget by Minister of Finance Chris Sinckler.

Please read the full story in today’s Daily Nation, or in the eNATION edition.
