I am not questioning the merits of the document; I am questioning the process. The process would be that it would go out to public consultation to get public feedback prior to it being approved by Cabinet. I am considering a process and it is important that when the national development plan is finalised, the key investment criteria by which it is underpinned in terms of the Department of Transport is a document that is formally approved by Government with the Minister bringing it to Cabinet.
