MANA says raising the age of entitlement from 65 to 67 will rob Maori.

"MANA says changes to social services must consider their impact on Maori.
Maori people already die younger than everyone else, so raising the
retirement age will mean even fewer Maori will get the pension because Maori
just don’t live that long. Raising the age of entitlement without proper

consultation is just another example of how Maori perspectives are sidelined
in social services."
