Te Pai Ora SSPA Submission
Social Security Amendment Bill
As detailed in our submission, Te Pai Ora SSPA has concerns with the proposed amendments to the Social Security Act. The Changes to welfare settings to support people into employment and off benefit regulatory impact statement (RIS) does a good job of outlining some of the limitations with the proposals.
We fully support effective, impactful action that keeps people off government benefits and enables them to take up meaningful employment. We remain concerned however that the proposed changes will not create the shift we are all hoping to achieve.
