Retirement Villages Act Reform
Official reform page updated 18 September 2026 supersedes the mid-2026 introduction expectation. September decisions revise repayment proposals; bill drafting, introduction, and select committee scrutiny remain future milestones.

NZ Super and Retirement Income
Coalition government committed to maintaining NZ Super age at 65. NZ First defends universal Super. National had previous policy to raise to 67 from 2044. OECD recommends increasing age. Opposition parties oppose any increase.
Taxpayers Union-Curia
NZ First's 11.7% makes it pivotal to government formation, strengthening its veto over NZ Super age reform.
