I believe this could potentially have worked as a public-private partnership (and would be less hassle than removing GST from fruit and vegetables).
The Commerce Commission's weak response to the Grocery inquiry also left much to be desired, with the underlying assumption that food retailing will continue to operate as it always has. Covid revealed the importance of innovation and adaptation.
Here's hoping small business and entrepreneurship will thrive better under Luxon.
