National is planning to give employees not already in KiwiSaver "a bit of a shove" by automatically enrolling them in the scheme but Labour says the move is timid and promises its policy will give KiwiSaver a bigger push.

Finance Minister Bill English said yesterday that after considering a recommendation this year from the Savings Working Group, his government had decided to proceed with KiwiSaver auto-enrolment as part of plan to increase New Zealand's national savings.

   "They are your wages, you should decide what to do with them, not be signed up by stealth by a scheme relying on your ignorance to keep staying in it."

   "Why are New Zealanders such slow learners? It is simple really; the money a person earns while in the workforce must be used to live on while working and also part to be saved for the years of retirement."
