New Planning System: Stronger direction and a plan for getting there

New Zealand’s new planning system will make it easier to build the houses and infrastructure our country needs, let farmers and growers get on with doing what they do best, and boost our primary sector while protecting the environment. Whether you’re a developer, farmer, planner or community member, the new planning system is designed to make it easier to make decisions and get things done. Alongside new legislation, stronger national instruments will mean less confusion, more certainty, and better outcomes for New Zealand’s environment and people.
