The Recreational Safety and Search and Rescue Review was completed in late 2023.

The Ministry of Transport has reconsidered the high-level recommendations of the Review in light of the Government’s priorities and in consultation with the NZSAR Council.

The Ministry of Transport’s view, supported by the NZSAR Council, is that the significant investment needed to implement the Review’s recommendations for new governance arrangements is not justified at this time.

The NZSAR Council has initiated work to ensure that it is resetting its purpose and refreshing its current strategic plan.  This work is timely given that the current strategic plan is for the three-year period of 2021-2024. The Council is intending to engage with the sector on this work.
