  • What estimate does the Government hold of the fiscal cost of extending City and Regional Deals to every region in New Zealand, if any?

Answer

As the cost of any deal depends on the proposal and what is negotiated, it is not possible to give an estimate, as not every region has proposed a deal and been selected to undertake negotiations with the government.
