You'll have to be more specific than that dodgy statement, it kind of undermines your good point. What obligations are you referring to, outside the resource management regime, which is most definitely "regulations"?
- robocat 2y agoI'm not involved with the project so I can't give you more than the vague impression I got as an outsider. My general experience is that the NZ government tends to think big and blow money on wasteful initiatives while not identifying clearly advantageous initiatives and backing those (or otherwise encouraging the good stuff). That said, I have been pleasantly surprised with the broadband rollout (which helped during COVID).
