Conclusion
Mr Speaker,
New Zealand is on the right track.
The Government's books are the envy of most developed countries.
The economy is growing and families are benefitting from that.
The country is seeing the benefit of improved public services that are focused on getting results.
Things haven't always been easy. But as a nation, we have coped with adversity and we're now making real progress.
We are seeing the benefits of the Government's programme of sensible, responsible change.
There are a lot of opportunities ahead of us as a country.
Providing we stick to the plan the Government has set out, I'm confident we will grasp those opportunities and keep building the brighter future New Zealanders deserve.
Mr Speaker,
I commend this Budget to the House.
