Less tax is paid on super savings than other forms of income. But if we want a fair and sustainable superannuation system, reform to super tax breaks is essential.

Brendan Coates, Economic Policy Program Director, and Joey Moloney, Senior Associate, discuss their new report on superannuation reform with host Kat Clay.
