Reforms

Water Services Reform Programme

The Government is considering how best to regulate and deliver the three waters - drinking water, wastewater and stormwater services - across New Zealand.

Future for Local Government review

An independent review of local government will explore how councils can maintain and improve the wellbeing of New Zealanders in the communities they serve, long into the future.

Resource Management

The Government plans to repeal the Resource Management Act and replace it with three new Acts to create a new resource management system.
