Poll results on National's DPB policy

Sunday 13th November, 2011

National’s policy will require a sole parent who has a further child while on the DPB to start looking for work when that child turns one.

On Q+A this morning Guyon Espiner released the results from the latest ONE News Colmar Brunton poll that asked voters if they supported that policy:

54% supported it
40% did not support it
6% didn’t know

The polling took place between 5-9 November, 2011
1005 eligible voters were surveyed
The margin of error for the poll is +/- 3.1%
The data has been weighted to Department of Statistics Population Estimates to ensure it is representative of the population in terms of age, gender, household size and ethnic origin.
