The request was refused by Inland Revenue Department.
From: Demme Simkin
Dear Inland Revenue Department,
I would like information and advice on a potential sugar tax for NZ.
Should selective taxes be imposed upon foods and beverages with a high
sugar and/or fat content to discourage their consumption and internalise
their social/health costs?
Yours faithfully,
Demme Simkin
