Capital gains tax abandoned by Government
While the idea of CGT was only a recommendation from the Tax Working Group, it managed to gain enough steam to have almost everyone talking about it.
Both sides had valid points, but the wide range ramifications would've been detrimental to so many e.g. for those who have signed up for KiwiSaver.
This decision is a win for every New Zealander especially the poor, as they would've been the unfortunate ones that could least afford this suggested tax system.
Unfortunately, the businesses and the rich have 'escaped' yet another stake at them having to pay more taxes.
Another look at their tax rates will have to be investigated and what they are actually claiming for in their tax forms.
With the new ways that the IRD is introducing, it will be interesting to see what happens there.

Auckland Harbour Bridge summer works
NZ Transport Agency Waka Kotahi is carrying out essential maintenance on the Auckland Harbour Bridge this December and January. The southbound clip-on lanes will be closed (24/7) from 26 December to 5 January for road resurfacing. Night-time lane restrictions will be in place throughout the summer for recoating work on the bridge. Traffic will still be able to travel in both directions at all times.
