Fast Tracked Covid Projects w/ David Parker: October 30, 2020

Early this year as part of the government's Covid recovery, there was the introduction of legislation which fast tracks projects in the effort to create jobs. There are a number of projects being considered, with the first one having been accepted. This project is a reservoir in Kaikohe, located in Northland, which struggled with the drought at the start of this year. To understand more about the fast tracking legislation and what impact it is having, James talked to environment minister David Parker, and started off by asking what this legislation is about.
