Major consumer advocacy milestone. 41,373 signatures demanding: full repayment within 3 months, interim payment of 10% or $50K within 5 days, interest on late payments, public disclosure of timeframes. 84% of surveyed NZers support fixed repayment deadlines. The June 2026 capture linked the petition to an amendment bill then expected in July 2026; that timing is a historical expectation, not the current legislative timetable.
Official September 2026 update replaces the June capture’s July introduction expectation: bill planned for the next Parliamentary term, no dated introduction commitment. Revised proposals include nine-month repayment and an initial 10% within four weeks, with exemptions and limited application to future agreements. Other proposed fee and capital-loss protections would cover existing agreements too.
