Mr. Eamon Murphy:

On New Zealand's well-being budget, one needs a framework for each budget and there needs to be a set goal in regard to the type of society towards which one is moving. If New Zealand has a proposal for a well-being budget, that is great, but we recommend that each policy be tagged with the sustainable development goal to which it relates, as set out in our document. We have been making the point for a couple of years that the Government should do so for every line of the budget and each item of legislation that is brought in. We would also like it to be done at EU level. The question for us is, if the legislation, policy or budget measure being brought in is not related to a particular sustainable development goal, to what does it relate? All aspects of human well-being are covered by the 17 sustainable development goals we outline.
