New Zealand Superannuation and Retirement Income (Pro Rata Entitlement) Amendment Bill

Member's Bill
Published date: 11 May 2023

Bills are proposals to make a new law or to change an existing one. Only Parliament can pass a bill. Each bill goes through several stages, giving MPs and the public the chance to have their say.

This bill proposes a pro rata entitlement to New Zealand superannuation based on residence and presence in New Zealand between the ages of 20 and 65 years; a period of 45 years, or 540 months.
