Paul Spoonley: Massey University Sociologist says NZ First's policy won't tackle falling birth rates

A sociologist believes New Zealand First's latest policy won't tackle falling birth rates.  The party's announced a Kiwi Kids Fund, which would give citizen families $5000 a year for the first three years of a child's life.  The grant would be limited to a family's first three children and would be tax free and not means tested.  Massey University's Paul Spoonley says fertility rates are low, but this won't fix that. He says it's a concern, but the Government doesn't have the ability to change that. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
