Advocacy and engagement update || November 2023
The government policy void over the past month has created an inevitable game of guessing about the tripartite policy priorities, the shaping of the coalition agreements and spread of ministerial responsibilities. The window of opportunity before Christmas and the summer holiday break is now very small, although the last sitting date for the House has been pushed out to Thursday, 21 December. The focus for government ministries and agencies is the expectation of a mini-Budget before Christmas. Once cloths have been cut to meet the funding available, the new Government’s focus will quickly turn to what tangible results can be achieved within its first 100 days.

REPORT
Estimating the Costs of an Uncertain Infrastructure Pipeline
Aotearoa New Zealand must gear up and build more
infrastructure to support a strong economy, social progress
and transition to net zero.
Underinvestment in our crucial infrastructure is one of our
greatest long-term economic challenges. New Zealand has
around $100 billion worth of infrastructure projects planned
and in its pipeline of upcoming work but this needs to more
than double over the next 30 years to meet our current
infrastructure deficit.
