The Ministry of Transport is inviting Chatham Islanders and key stakeholders to share their views on what they see as important factors for a new shipping service to the Chatham Islands.

This consultation discusses the Government’s proposed improvements to New Zealand’s Graduated Driver Licensing System (GDLS or licensing system).

The proposed changes to the Land Transport Rule: Vehicle Exhaust Emissions 2007 – the ‘Vehicle Exhaust Emissions Amendment Rule’ (the Amendment Rule) will reduce emissions from motor vehicles that cause significant harm to our health. The proposed changes to the Amendment Rule set out the lead in times for bringing in a stronger vehicle emissions standard. The aim of this consultation is to receive feedback on the new proposed emissions standard, for new and used vehicles, and the proposed lead in times for these changes.  

The Minister of Transport is proposing changes to legislation to make it easier for local authorities (like councils) to make street changes that support public transport, active travel and placemaking. These proposals would enable local authorities to make street changes more efficiently and provide new ways for communities to be involved in changes that affect them.
