Chris Luxon is adamant his tax cuts will be delivered as promised, when promised.
A coalition deal's now been signed and Luxon becomes the Prime Minister on Monday.
National's promised plan for tax cuts now has a hole of 740-million-dollars a year, after New Zealand First vetoed a foreign buyers' tax.
Luxon told Heather du Plessis Allan that 100-million dollars will be raised by changing fees free to the final year of university.
He says a series of other things will add up, like repealing the app tax and not progressing the 2026 changes to Working for Families.
