Committee on Infrastructure and National Development Plan Delivery
Role of Private Sector Construction Industry in Delivering High-Quality National Infrastructure: Discussion

I understand that. On exemptions to planning for infrastructure and reform of the statutory consents, will the witnesses outline some of the planning exemptions they would like to see sped up for infrastructure delivery? We need to be careful about environmental impacts when it comes to planning and building. What do the witnesses mean when they say exemptions because the term terrifies me, as it does many members of the climate committee?
