SOYOU THOUGHT 3 WATERS WAS CORRUPT..??
There is a new series of bills going thru parliament right now that willcommand control over what you can do with your house, property, farm, and yourbusiness. It was sneaked in before Xmas by Labours David Parker and submissionsclosed on Waitangi weekend. Nothing was said in the press but it’s out now onthe underground media and creating a storm. It is just incredibly horrible.
While most New Zealanders looked at the Three Waters shambles with horror, Environment Minister, David Parker, was taking notes. He’s decided to replicate the worst elements of the water reforms in his proposed replacement to the Resource Management Act. 891 pages of it in fact.
Under this new law, your council will lose control of this function and it will be handed to 15 new co-governed...yes jobs for the bros again...Regional Planning Committees. This will of course cost a bomb, line the pockets of the ‘co-governors’ and will give THEM the power of decision over your deck, business, home, water intake and everything else related to RMA.
So to reiterate...your council will no longer have any real say in your RMA application, mostly IWI will. Just imagine all the IWI applications going through...!!!
The new governing body will be made up of the socialists inefficient layers of bureaucracy, just like 3 waters, to make it as secret and complex as possible, but with the treaty ‘partnership’ at its heart and to embody the Waitangi tribunal principals of at least 50/50 governorship by Maori. No doubt diversity and gender influence will make its way in there too. Your non binary but inclusive and diverse letterbox could make it onto the committee in theory..? It is almost that ridiculous but just as arrogant and audacious in their control grab.
The New Zealand Taxpayers Union had this to say; ‘The rules even allow the Minister (currently David Parker) to make his own appointments to the Regional Planning Committees so that Wellington has people to ensure that these committees dance to the Government's tune.
1. Unelected appointees from local iwi/hapū will sit on the new Regional Planning Committees with full voting rights.
2. A new, unelected ‘National Māori Entity’ will put pressure on the new planning committees to ensure that they abide by Treaty principles, and will have priority over public consultation on the new National Planning Frameworks.
3. At any time, iwi or hapū can produce a Te Oranga o te Taiao (environmental wellbeing) statement, dictating how the Minister of Environment must uphold the “intrinsic relationship” between iwi/hapū and the environment in National Planning Frameworks for which there is no appeal process outlined in the bill.
These reforms mean everything from building a new deck to constructing a new hospital or supermarket, will be even harder. ‘
And can you just imagine the corruption, backhanders and instant resource consent approvals for the bros, and any IWI that wants to change the rules to put up a structure or take yours down..??
If New Zealanders were fully aware about the true implications of David Parker’s power grab, it could turn into a real political headache for the Government just like Three Waters.
Sadly 50% of NZers are not aware of this.
I urge you all to become aware of what is happening, or go on to some of the excellent sites of the real fighters like NZCPR, Hobsons Pledge, New Zealand Taxpayers Union etc.
