Dr David Gruen
Dr Gruen will talk on the points in common and of the differences between the Australian Treasury's wellbeing framework and the New Zealand Treasury's living standards framework, and the Australian Treasury's experience with having a formal framework. This will include a discussion of how policy advisers may want to consider distributional issues in light of these frameworks.
