The government has announced it plans to urgently repeal legislation which would have required Inland Revenue to report on the tax system's equity, efficiency and certainty.

I suspect the government doesn't want the report released.

By passing this under urgency, the report can just be thrown in the bin.

Hard evidence that ~~it~~ the tax system is fundamentally inequitable is anathema to top tier tax breaks.
