Subject: Official Information Act request - Tax Income Percentage

Dear Minister of Finance,

Can you outline the income sources in relation to numbers and percentages for the Government and in a Pie Chart or a table?
(i.e 24% Goods and Services Tax, 25% Income Tax, 51% Capital Gains Tax) Can the different segments of the pie chart be colour coordinated with the colour of the New Zealand dollar bills? - I am partially colour blind and these colours suit me better.

Secondly, am I able to receive a smiley face at the end of your signature?

Yours faithfully,

Daniel
