This act aims to help make it easier to complete big infrastructure and development projects. These projects are meant to bring important benefits to either a whole region or the entire country of New Zealand.
When we talk about infrastructure, we mean things like roads, bridges, power plants, or water systems that help a community or country work better. Development projects could be things like new housing areas or business parks that help grow the economy.
By making these projects easier to deliver, the act hopes to bring positive changes that will help many people across New Zealand or in specific regions.
