Episode Details

An economist says it will be tough to achieve the numbers set out in Labour's fiscal plan. 

The party says all its election commitments are fully costed - with the country returning to surplus in 2028/29. 

Labour would keep the Budget operating allowance tight at 2.4 billion dollars - and reinstate its pay equity scheme at a cost not yet determined. 

Economist Cameron Bagrie tells Andrew Dickens health seems to be the big winner from the plan - but there are trade-offs in other areas like education.
