New Zealand's ACT Party calls for public servants to use Uber, potentially saving taxpayers $3 million.

Todd Stephenson, Finance spokesperson for New Zealand's ACT Party, has urged Public Service Commissioner Sir Brian Roche to permit public servants to use rideshare services like Uber instead of traditional taxis. He claims this could save taxpayers up to $3 million annually, based on a 2017 report. Rideshare apps also offer safety features like live tracking and digital receipts, which enhance accountability for public servants.
