Make a submission: Have your say for a healthy greater Christchurch

Wednesday, August 14, 2024   Posted in: Waka Toa Ora Notices By: Administrator With tags: submissions, planning, policy, legislation, consultation, community engagement

Waka Toa Ora provides a way to share submission opportunities across our networks. Submissions are an effective way for communities to have their voice heard when local and central government are considering proposals which affect where we live, work and play.

Below are a number of consultations which are now open for comment. This list is not exhaustive, as there are many government and other agencies which consult on a regular basis. New items added since last week have been highlighted in bold.
