The ACT leader has promised less spending and fewer public servants.

It comes after numerous redundancies in the public sector, following calls for efficient spending as the coalition's budgets were being delivered.

David Seymour says the Government is not cutting costs as much as ACT would.

"We said that we wanted to reduce the number of public servants back to pre-Labour levels, and we also said that we wanted to reduce spending by about 8 or 9 billion each year."

Seymour's reiterating the comments made yesterday when reacting to a further OCR cut.
