  • Symposium on Retirement Income Policy
    Symposium on Retirement Income Policy Looking back and looking forward Wednesday, 16 April 2008 TASK FORCES IN THE 1990s AND THE POLITICAL ACCORD Task Force on Private Provision for Retirement Politics, not economics or demographics, was the key driver of the retirement policy debate of the nineties. The appointment of the Task Force on Private Provision for Retirement on 10 October 1991 by Prime Minister Jim Bolger was, for me, the first step on a fascinating journey of research, education, consultation and consensus which extended through the decade. During the 1990s New Zealand re-constructed and developed its simple two part system for providing income in retirement based on public provision of a basic pension (New Zealand Superannuation) and voluntary private savings. Retirement savings were tax-neutral compared with other forms of financial savings. The 1990s began with radical changes to national super announced in the 1991 budget that would have converted the pension into a welfare benefit. The government was forced to backtrack and was left wondering what to do. Announcing the formation of the 1991 Task Force, the New Zealand Herald’s Simon Collins, under the heading Task force to study compulsory super, reported that the eight-member task force “will consider requiring New Zealanders to contribute to compulsory private pension schemes. The eight-member task force will also consider tax incentives for retirement saving, regulation of superannuation schemes and compulsory retirement ages. The group would report to a joint cabinet-caucus committee chaired by the Prime Minister, Mr Bolger.” In fact, the Hon WF (Bill) Birch was our principal government contact.
