The Child Poverty Action Group has criticised Labour's tax policy as hugely disappointing, saying the poorest families would miss out.
The policy, aimed at easing the cost of living, would see GST removed from fruit and vegetables from April 1st next year, while changes to Working For Families would put at least $47 a week into the pockets of eligible families by 2026 - if Labour wins the election.
But economist and spokesperson for Child Poverty Action Group, Susan St John says there's nothing for the 160,000 children living in benefit-dependent homes which get no Working for Families support at all.
St John spoke to Corin Dann.
