Answer

I have not had any specific engagement with Greenpeace while the Natural Environment Bill and the Planning Bill have been at Select Committee. However, representatives from Greenpeace were present at a meeting which I attended on 28 April 2026 between environmental non-government organisations, and other Ministers, where resource management reform was discussed.
