Public Servants Pay Tax for Life... So Why Tax Their Retirement Savings?

Why are public servants paying tax on their retirement benefits after spending decades paying taxes throughout their working lives? During the June 9 Parliament sitting, concerns were raised over the taxation of retirement payouts for public servants. Questions were directed to the Minister responsible, with calls for the Government to review whether retirement benefits should continue to be taxed or whether relief should be provided to retirees. In this video, we look at what was asked in Parliament, the Government's response, and what any future changes could mean for public servants, retirees, and taxpayers across Papua New Guinea.
