- Summary
- Obesity rates are increasing in many developed countries. The World Health Organization classifies 1.5 billion adults as overweight, while the OECD ranks New Zealand citizens as the third fattest in the developed world. Denmark has recently introduced a "fat tax" as a means of addressing the obesity issue. This article adopts an institutional analytical perspective to assess whether a similar policy tool may find favourable reception in New Zealand. The analysis suggests that the New Zealand environment is unlikey to accept the use of the GST system to influence food consumption. The political environment, the current "model" goods and services tax, combined with the influential agricultural sector are likely to create an environment that is unreceptive to a "fat tax"
