Almost a Year on and Govt Still Dodging Groundswell NZ
November 15, 2022

Climate Change Minister James Shaw appears to be backtracking on a promise to meet with Groundswell NZ leaders.
In December 2021 Shaw agreed to meet with Groundswell NZ co-founders Laurie Paterson and Bryce McKenzie once the exposure draft of the proposed National Environmental Standards for Indigenous Biodiversity had been released.
That was released for consultation in July, but Shaw has not travelled to Southland to meet with the pair.
