Renua plan would leave minimum-wage earners worse off, Creighton admits

Renua leader Lucinda Creighton has admitted her party's new tax proposals would result in those on the minimum wage being marginally worse off.

Renua is proposing a new flat rate income tax of 23% which everyone would pay on all income, but those on welfare and lower income would get tax rebates on a sliding scale in return from the state.
