If you can’t make the hui, there are other ways to have your say. Submissions are now open and will close on Monday 16 July 2018, 5:00pm. Take a look at our website to see the best way for you to have your say www.kauridieback.co.nz
This is an opportunity for everyone with an interest in kauri to contribute.
There are three rounds of consultation this year. We’re doing this to get the best result for kauri by working on the future and coming up with actions together.
This first round is to refresh the future direction for managing kauri dieback disease. In rounds two and three later this year, you’ll see (and get to comment) on the big picture view created from your feedback in round one. This will inform how the National Pest Management Plan can best be used to support the work to protect kauri – and you’ll get a say on that too. We’ll keep you updated with these consultation dates.
Please pass this information to your members or communities who may be interested in contributing to the future of kauri.
Remember to go to www.kauridieback.co.nz to have your say before 16 July 2018.
Kind regards
Roger Smith
Chair of the Kauri Dieback Programme Governance Group and Head of Biosecurity New Zealand
