It looks like the cost will be something in the order of $400 million per annum, and that is cost that has to be picked up somewhere along the line. Businesses across New Zealand are already in a fragile state. They have had to bear the burden of massive price increases on a whole range of things: cost increases, extra minimum wage commitments, extended parental leave commitments, the creation of an extra 10 days a year domestic violence leave, and a billion dollars of extra costs for an extra week's sick leave. Those are all costs that businesses have to absorb. Businesses will do what is required to remain competitive and profitable, and if that means that they just have to be constantly on the receiving end of increased Government costs via proclamation, then they will inevitably do what all businesses will do: they will eventually pass those costs on to their customers. And who are their customers? We are their customers. We all pay. Sooner or later there is no such thing as a free lunch, there is no such thing as a free public holiday; we all pay sooner or later.
