Ineffective Subsequent Child Policy Sanction Removed

October 15, 2021 at 12:58 PM

From Beehive.govt.nz 

The Social Security (Subsequent Child Policy Removal) Amendment Bill has passed its third reading in the House. 

The Bill removes the subsequent child policy from the Social Security Act 2018 and Social Security Regulations 2018, and the policy’s removal will take effect on 8 November 2021. 

The Bill aligns with a recommendation made by the Welfare Expert Advisory Group in their advice to Government in February 2019.
