The Taxpayers’ Union has revealed that the Treasury has helpfully set up a bank account for New Zealanders to make a donation to the Government coffers at any time.

> After inquiries with Treasury, the Taxpayers’ Union has confirmed that New Zealanders can voluntarily donate to a Crown receipts account to assist with COVID-19 relief, reduce the burden of debt for taxpayers, and avoid the need for new taxes.

> The bank number is 03-0049-0000327-25 \[…\]

The BFD.

> Treasury requests that donors include the name of the payee and purpose of payment e.g. “Covid Donation” in the reference fields. Donations unrelated to COVID-19 or any specific purpose can also be made but “donation” should be included in the reference field.

> COVID-19 is set to saddle future taxpayers with a massive bill for the current health response and economic relief programme. We’re pleased to learn there is a mechanism for New Zealanders to pitch in extra on behalf of those less able to pay.\[…\]

Next time you see or hear someone saying that they love paying tax or that punishing new taxes are needed because of COVID-19 make sure you give them the details and ask them to donate.
