"From mid-morning until 2pm on Budget day, Scoop's top line-up will be inside the Budget 2008 lock-up questioning the Finance Minister and Treasury officials about the intent and purpose of Dr Michael Cullen's announcements. Gordon Campbell, Pattrick Smellie, and Jonathan Underhill offer Scoop's audience and subscriber clients the very best reportage and political, business and economic analysis," Selwyn Manning said.
Gordon Campbell will report on and examine the Labour-led Government's ninth Budget, analysing political events that led up to Budget 2008, tax cuts, fiscal prudence, social policy, the consequential impact Budget 2008 will have on New Zealand and you, and whether Budget 2008 heralds a new political tack for the Clark Labour-led Government.
Pattrick Smellie will identify and analyse the big issues that will impact on New Zealand's business sector, test whether Dr Michael Cullen's Budget will lift business confidence, and examine likely impact on the electoral climate.
Jonathan Underhill will report on and analyse the economic impact on New Zealand, the financial markets, and what effect Budget 2008 will have on New Zealand's trade and export sector.
