Te Paati Māori's income policy, Oranga Tangata, talks about the importance of raising the minimum wage to $25 per hour and legislating for an annual increase to keep up with the costs of living. We talk about guaranteeing pay equity for all of our Māori nurses and our teachers, doubling baseline benefit levels, individualising benefits, removing all penalties and sanctions and work-test obligations, cancelling income support - related debt and ensuring that additional grants do not need to be paid back in future, and raising abatement rates for benefits and student allowances.
