THE ANGLOSPHERIC SAMENESS:

470 public service jobs expected to go (NZ Herald, Apr 30, 2010)

The Government expects 470 public service positions will go by the end of next year, State Services Minister Tony Ryall's office has confirmed.

The Labour Party blew the whistle on the cuts today, saying it had Cabinet papers which showed health, education and Inland Revenue would bear the brunt of what it called "indiscriminate cuts to public services".
